Time Stands Still

All I want is for my time with you to slow down
Don't really make it in town like I used to
So for now
All I want is for my time with you to slow down
Don't really make it in town like I used to
So for now

I appreciate your patience
What am I doin' without you?
Never hear no bad shit out here
In the streets about you

Love just must have made you smart
Jealousy is the counterpart
Life has made us stripped apart
No more willing to embark

But we remained friends throughout
All those years from then to now
Both those feelings trust and doubt
Argue until you storm out

Other dude gave you a kid
He didn't have you like I did
I pieced you out and then y'all broke up
And you called me again

Drunk and crying on the phone
Next flight out you gon' be home
Flight delayed, I still wait
Call me when you reach the gate

Pick you up at baggage claim
Tunnel vision just begun
'Cause you and your son
Look like you and my son

All I want is for my time with you to slow down
Don't really make it in town like I used to
So for now
All I want is for my time with you to slow down
Don't really make it in town like I used to
So for now

All I need is more time
Is having you right beside me, you're mine
And only for a couple minutes more, slow down
Somebody say five and time a pillow

Know that if I could then I would pay full time
On some major shit, slow down
Dodgin' every minute like a bullet
Somebody say five and time a pillow

Let me get your bags out of the truck
Get the keys and go upstairs
Cover tattoos on your arm
That's just memories, souvenirs

We got plans tonight
We goin' to the cheese cake factory
And drink a little and reminisce about
How you used to laugh at me

You didn't think I would go too far
I mean being from Compton and all
But still I grabbed some corks, some yarn
And rubber and made myself a ball

I know your momma proud of me
'Cause she looked down on me
She knew I had it
She said that I would make it if I just stayed at it

Now how's your niece
The one who used to stay with you
When you lived on over by the street
The one who like my nephew Kiana
She used to do her hair like Rihanna
You remember my

Why you kiss me when I'm talking?
Just had to bring back all them old memories
So you ready to go?
You sure you don't wanna another drink?
Okay, let me get the check

All I need is more time
Is having you right beside me, you're mine
And only for a couple minutes more, slow down
Somebody say five and time a pillow

Know that if I could then I would pay full time
On some major shit, slow down
Dodgin' every minute like a bullet
Somebody say five and time a pillow, a pillow, a pillow

All I want is for my time with you to slow down
Don't really make it in town like I used to
So for now
All I want is for my time with you to slow down
Don't really make it in town like I used to
So for now
