in due time - akintoye lyrics
to my teenage listeners
sittin’ in back of the classroom
got a couple real close friends
you so attached to
prolly see the world together
couple matching tatoos
future bright, yet to see a plight that y’all can’t laugh through
next you go to college
graduate and get a job
and then you meet the one you love
and have a kid at 25
and then you travel round the world
living life till’ you retire
picture perfect plan to get what you desire
super fly
in due time (due time)
you’ll gеt everything you want and then somе
in due time (due time)
eyes wide outside looking for a through line (due time)
you’ll get everything you want and then some
in due time
to my twenty*somethings functioning solely to see tomorrow
the ones who which these words of encouragement ring hollow
i know you feel the emptiness of effort made pointless
your peers are on the gram’ on the island eatin’ oysters
and now you feel behind, because you’re living in your prime
and when you look at life its different than the one that you designed
cause back in high school you thought you’d have a crib already
a ring up on your finger with a couple kids already
and now the timeline bending
the high life trending
legislation got you living through a sci*fi ending
you’ve been working endlessly but never see the results
pandemic robbed you of you feeling adult
i know the feeling i promise
i know the ceiling feels closer than ever
trust in your power
you ain’t no stranger to pressure
you made it this far
out the mud how you got it
its nothing new
seeds feed on dirt and water
that’s the only way they bloom
in due time (due time)
you’ll get everything you want and then some
in due time (due time)
blindsided mind crowded looking for a through line (due time)
you’ll get everything you want and then some
in due time
to my thirty*somethings worrisome and lookin’ in the rearview
putting on a front and trippin’ more than you appear to
feel like you ain’t done enough, and that’s the sh*t that scares you
lookin’ for a listener if anyone would care to
everyone around you seem to have they sh*t together
with less*than*zero effort
you’d k!ll to lift the pressure
the homies leavin’ work and see a family that cares for em’
made mistakes a decade ago and you still payin’ for em’
relax
take a breath it’s not embarrassin’
it’s danger in comparison
and keepin’ up appearances
truth be told they struggle too
lost inside they hustle too
plenty road ahead to cross
this livin’ sh*t ain’t done with you
yeah you bound to struggle and stumble and fall down
still you get up off the ground make the sh*t shake
sit straight
f*ck a timeline
you get this sh*t when you ready
never been closer to the cake and cofetti
it’s on the way
in due time (due time)
you’ll get everything you want and then some
in due time (due time)
never been wiser than now
potential high in the clouds looking for a through line (due time)
you’ll get everything you want and then some
in due time
