Race Against Time Lyrics
*Whoa-o-o-oo-h*
Uh-huh...
Just hopped off the phone with my man
Out in Tokyo, Japan
Said he got no lights
And he had a rough night
His people were suffering
Earthquake, tsunami and all of that
People looking for their kids
They ain't callin' back
Got tears in their eyes
Can’t hold em back
Hope your pain heal fast
Can’t change the past
I’m gettin' faded
Thinking of how my day went
Thinking of how I'm lucky
I made it in entertainment
Duckin' federal agents
Cuffin' us in the rain
Man, my brothers lock down
Be patient, you gon' make it.
Can’t stop a bird from taking flight
Forget the worries
You’d better go out & live your life
And even coming up in the worst place
You could still be first place
In this race against time.
[CHORUS]
Tonight's the night
I just opened my eyes
This world is crashing on site
I’m thinking "God, oh my my"
I’m just speaking my mind,
Can’t you read between lines
I’m just tryin to catch up
But it’s a race against time.
They say the world is one third land
And two thirds water
Lost one third of my fam
To upsurge slaughter
The wealthy only want new pearls
This part of me

I’m worrying about the
New World Order
Global warming,
Abnormal stormin’
Twenty degrees (F) in spring time
That’s is a warning
Now here’s the new shhh
I just heard they’ve found radioactive water
Up in Massachusetts
Now that’s a long way
From the Japanese coast
All the way to the east coast
So tell your peoples
They don’t need to keep the heat close
For a hater
The biggest enemy to us now is
'Mother nature'
Somebody call Father Time
Tell him get back to the crib
And get his wifey in line
Now hear the pulse of the people
One beat at a time
Keep your head up Japan
The rising sun gon' shine.
[CHORUS]
*Reach for the stars ‘cause everything, everything will be okay
We come too far to let people, to the people fall...*
[CHORUS]
