Lyrics

No...
Pay it no mind no mind no no visiting it,
No visitors are allowed when you glisten in it,
When you imprisoned in the time once you living in it,
No no pay it no mind, don't you listen to it,
No no you giving time when you give in to it,
That shit be flipping through the clocks, yes you living through it,
Yes you be living through the drops yes you get into it,
Digging through time lines, look at the mind shine...

That social media it got you bugging out and shit,
You want to look at shit but you stuck on the couch and shit,
You wanna try and do your life but you ain't bout the shit,
You lost a couple hours with that flippin flicky flockin shit,
I'monna muscle through I wanted to devour shit,
And you don't even know what time it is you out and shit,
And waking up an hour in a cold sweat,
I don't even know if fuckin gone to bed yet,
Cause um uh...
My eyes are bugging from that blue screen,
Loose lean,
I'm gonna get a little prime from that loose leaf,
I'm on a ride sheet flying through the back streets,
Don't need it because there's more to life...

Don't pay it no mind...
Don't pay it no mind...
Don't pay it no mind...
Don't even listen to it,
don't even listen to it...

Don't pay it no mind,
You listen to their words,
Then you giving them your time,
You see em try to swerve when they blur all the lines,
Suddenly you pull up to the store and you splurge
on some things that you never had before, so...
Don't pay it no mind, they're getting you to line up,
remember the rhyme, and never ever sign up,
Times up, they cash in on your action,
Or inaction, they love when youre not working on your passion,
You're fllippy flipping on that screen and you ain't listening
to nothing but some memes, you can't focus on your dreams,
And when you, find out, that's when you find doubt,
So do it right now… don't pay it no mind.
