Lyrics
Intro
Wait—
Why's everything moving so—
FAST.
Verse
Wake up late, gotta go, hit the door
Forgot my keys, gotta run back for 'em
Phone going off, hundred notifications
Everybody wants something, zero explanations
Left, right, where am I supposed to be?
Three different people keep calling me
One says hurry, one says wait
One says, (Bro, you're already late)
Okay—
Cool.
Great.
Today's gonna be one of those days.
Chorus
NO BRAKES
Everything's moving too fast
NO BRAKES
Don't even know where I'm at
One thing, two things
Ten more stack
Don't know where I'm going
But I'm going there fast
NO BRAKES!
Verse
Running out the door and I'm checking the time
Million different things running through my mind
Should've gone left but I went to the right
Now I'm turning back around at the speed of light
Where's my bag?
(Got my bag!)
Where's my phone?
(In your hand!)
Where's my hat?
(Never mind!)
Gotta go, can't stop, no time
Another notification saying I'm behind
Tick-tock, wristwatch, time won't stop
Heart going boom while the bassline drops
Verse
Now I'm making a rap song while I'm running late for the big dog
Boss blowing up my phone, yeah, I probably should've called
Running down the sidewalk, backpack bouncing off my back
Trying to type a message while I'm staying on the track
Red light, green light, which way am I going?
Clock keeps ticking and the panic keeps growing
Five missed calls and another one came
Pretty sure by now that he remembers my name
I'm late, I'm late, I'm REALLY late
Three more blocks and it's ten-oh-eight
Cut through the corner, nearly dropped my bag
ESTO NO ES POP—
ESTO ES UNA CANCIÓN DE RAP!
Verse
Back on the move and I'm moving again
Message from the boss saying, (WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?)
I'm running and ducking and jumping and stumbling
Words in my head and they're constantly doubling
Tick-tock, wristwatch, don't lose track
Left foot, right foot, no turning back
Run through the door and I'm catching my breath
Boss looking at me like I'm facing my death
He looks at the clock—
Then looks at me—
Outro
Checked the wrong time.
(Again?)
Again.
