One thing, i don't know why

It doesn't even matter how hard you try

Keep that in mind

I designed this rhyme when i was obsessed with time

All i know, time was just slipping away

And i watched it count down to the end of the day

Watched it watch me and the words that i say

The echo of the clock rhythm in my veins

I know that i didn't look out below

And i watched the time go right out the window

Tried to grab hold

Tried not to watch

I wasted it all on the hands of the clock

But in the end, no matter what i pretend

The journey is more important than the end or the start

And what it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when

[i've tried so hard]



And got so far

But in the end

It doesn't even matter



Yo, one thing, i don't know how

It doesn't even matter when you look at it now

'cause when i designed this rhyme

I was scared of it all, scared to fall, and ii hadn't even tried to crawl

But i was forced to run with you mocking me, stopping me, backstabbing me constantly

Remembering all the times you fought with me

Watch the clock now chock-full of hipocrisy

But now your mouth wishes it could inhale

Every single little thing you said to make things fail

Every single word you sputtered just to get your piece

But it really doesn't matter to me

'cause from the start to the end, no matter what i pretend

The journey is more important than the end or the start

And what it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when

[i've tried so hard]



And got so far

But in the end

It doesn't even matter
