Time Songtext
von The Itals

Yes
Woah yes, oh yes, oh yes, oh yes

Lot of people don′t lay down their burden
When dem reach a life crossroad
Dem no want us to share the sweet
Dem want I carry dem heavy load

Dem want to give I basket to carry water
See, dem a try and they just can't conquer
Yes I, no I, ain′t I
Ain't gonna take no share of what's not mine (No)

You see, time (Ooh)
Ain′t no substitute for time
Time (Ooh)
Ain′t no substitute for time


Time is the master, and time waits for no one
See, length of days, oh, Jah got it in his hand
How do you feel to show to the world
The things you doing day by day? I say
Will you be proud to show to everyone?
I wonder, where did you get your helping hand?
I wanna know, I wanna understand

I ain't gonna take no share of what′s not mine (No, no)

You see, time (Ooh)
Ain't no substitute for time
Time (Ooh)
Ain′t no substitute for time

I run into situation like this time and time before
I never forget none of these memories
Not one of them, for sure
I see dem trying to force water over a hill
Saying how dem a trying to get the time to stand still
I even see dem putting the cart before the horse
That's when I know they put the first thing ′fore the last
I don't give a damn or blast (No)

Dem want to give I basket to carry water
See, dem a try and they just can't conquer
Yes I, no I, ain′t I
Ain′t gonna take no share of what's not mine (No, no)


You see, time (Ooh)
Ain′t no substitute for time
I say time (Ooh)
Ain't no substitute for time

Time (Ooh)
Ain′t no substitute for time
Time (Ooh)
Ain't no substitute for time
Time (Ooh)
Ain′t no substitute for time
Time (Ooh)
Ain't no substitute for time
Time (Ooh)
Ain't no substitute for time
