[Chorus]
Talkin' 'bout timin'
Wake up like five in the mornin' 'fore the sun come up
I'm grindin'
Shit ain't always black and white, sometimes you gotta find a silver linin'
Hit me with the Clockwork Orange, I'll dodge that bullet
Still shinin'
[Verse 1]
Look, baby I was on time
I ain't tryna wait more than fifteen minutes
If you got a J, add fifteen minutes
I was on the way, I was speedin' just to get
Yeah, I stopped on a dime
If you talkin' 'bout time
Wastin' it should be a crime
Look, you ain't gotta front, just say somethin'
Wearin' sun shades in the night time
You ain't gotta search for the right time
I already seen you from the front, you was curvy
Got the message and I'm operatin' likewise
Like Drizzo while I'm puffin' on the Percy
Little Dragon happened twice in my lifetime
Why you had to take it to the max when you swervin'?
But your clock wound up, you was perfect
[Chorus]
Talkin' 'bout timin'
Wake up like five in the mornin' 'fore the sun come up
I'm grindin'
Shit ain't always black and white, sometimes you gotta find a silver linin'
Hit me with the Clockwork Orange, I'll dodge that bullet
Still shinin'
[Verse 2]
Early bird gets the worm
That ain't always true, my nigga, check this
I was pressed, I was permed
Read the DM, ran a curl pattern back
I was sick, she ain't my concern no more
Puff, pass, dump ash in the urn, R.I.P. the mornin'
I can't confirm that a nigga gon' vibe
Either way, a bitch live, we can keep it goin'
If we talkin' 'bout time, I've been wakin' up five in the a.m.
Grindin', I need it more
Dreamin' through alarms 'til I find it
I know I'm right behind it
Shawty still denyin' me, I need to know
[Outro]
I already seen it from the front, she was curvy
If you talkin' 'bout timin'
Talkin' 'bout timin'
Wake up like five in the mornin' 'fore the sun come up
I'm grindin'
Shit ain't always black and white, sometimes you gotta find a silver linin'
Hit me with the Clockwork Orange, I'll dodge that bullet
Still shinin'
