And time is on your side, it's on your side now
I'm pushin' you down and all around
Oh it's no cause for concern

A lot of people hurting out here in the world
And we ain't got the decency to try to heal the world
And every other song's talkin' bout stackin' paper
And everybody sins so we all must be fakers
I'm speakin' for the world, I'm speakin' for myself
Our souls ain't got no pockets but we 're still chasin' wealth
And you could blame the media, you could blame it on em all
It is so much easier for someone else to take the fall
Fall, we fallin' like leaves in the autumn
We six feet deep like trees on the bottom
The difference is they rooted, they know just how to do it
They hold each other up underground where the root is
And that's love, and that's patience
I'm tryina fly away on this spaceship
Up into the sky, up there where the stars is
I'm down here, but heaven's where my heart is

And time is on your side, it's on your side now
I'm pushin' you down and all around
Oh it's no cause for concern

Time, the biggest enemy of mine
Sometimes I wish that he would change his mind
And slow down a minute, and let us catch up
How we gonna fix all the things we messed up
How we gone right all the things we made wrong
We betta hit our knees, and send it to the throne
Send it to the master, sin is like a cancer
Shorty keep your head up, Jehova got the answer
And I know they pushin', push you to the edge
Tryina make a second home for you out on that ledge
Whisperin' jump, ain't nobody care
Your prayers ain't working', ain't nobody there
Say devil you a lie, God is in my heart
The book say satan wanna tear my life apart
Be still and know that I am God, that's what he told me
And put the past in the trash with the old me

And time is on your side, it's on your side now
I'm pushin' you down and all around
Oh it's no cause for concern
