Lecrae

While there’s no sure route to carving out a significant presence in the music industry, there’s always something to be said for remaining true to one’s self. Since arriving on the scene with his 2004 debut Real Talk, Lecrae has been occupying two different yet not entirely opposing worlds: the sacred and the profane. Which is to say that his art, not unlike his life, has been as much about inspiring the streets, and about justice, freedom, and interrogating real-world issues, as it is about his personal journey of faith. His music has long served as a call to arms for those willing to sacrifice for a cause beyond themselves. Still, he won’t be boxed in to any genre or made to serve as a poster-child for any particular agenda. Following a host of celebrated … more »

Lights off
Ain't nobody watchin' me
I heard about the man in the sky
But he prolly fell asleep
And you say Audemars
Audemars, Audemars
But still don't know the time
That the Son comes down from the stars

Lights off
Ain't nobody watchin' me
I heard about the man in the sky
But he prolly fell asleep
And you say Audemars
Audemars, Audemars
But still don't know the time
That the Son comes down from the stars

They say that
Time waits for no man
Nah, they probly lyin'
'Cause time waits on me like a servant all of the time
But, uh
I know some people who actually servin' time
Committed to this grind
Or just committed some crimes
Some times
I wish I had some more time to think
And all the time in the world is all the time I need
And I know eternity's callin'
But my mind
Too busy racin' to pay any mind
Spent a whole lot of money on a watch
Ironic cuz I got it
But I hardly sit and watch
The time tick by
I spend time tryna buy it to own time
I never thought that I was only
Wastin' my own time
Who holds time?
They say he'll be coming in no time
Pray I pay attention cause I'm giving him no time
When lights off is anybody watchin' me
Heard the man above
Never slumber never sleep

Lights off
Ain't nobody watchin' me
I heard about the man in the sky
But he prolly fell asleep
And you say Audemars
Audemars, Audemars
But still don't know the time
That the Son comes down from the stars

On the corners in the alleys
I see conans and cowards
Scared to question their existence
Like ain't no final hour
Can we blame the sins of a reverend for all our irreverence
Does my time spent on earth qualify me for heaven
Did we tick him off by wastin' all of these ticks on this clock
Or is he graciously givin' me time to give him my heart
I'm sure it's the latter
Sure that it matters
And I believe
I've been given all this time
So I can try and redeem it
Or make the most of this stop watch that I'm racin'
You stop and watch you ain't racing
You erasing yo minutes
You can't replace 'em
At the end of yo days
When eternity's in yo face
You had one life to offer up in his service or lay to waste
So my Rollie's tellin' me to roll out
Make investments with my time
While I'm tryna hold out, hold out
And fame money success
Be competing for my investments
But I can't take 'em with me
When it's time for me to exit
Turn the

Lights off
Ain't nobody watchin' me
I heard about the man in the sky
But he prolly fell asleep
And you say Audemars
Audemars, Audemars
But still don't know the time
That the Son comes down from the stars

Lights off
Ain't nobody watchin' me
I heard about the man in the sky
But he prolly fell asleep
And you say Audemars
Audemars, Audemars
But still don't know what time
That the Son comes down from the stars
