Who's sorry? I'm not sorry
(Who's sorry? I'm not sorry)
Who's sorry? I'm not sorry (I'm not sorry)
You twist and you turn
You got the urge to burn
The government should really be the least of your concern
The privilege to do is what you earn
To be yourself and free yourself is what I've come to learn
No more political dreams or elusive schemes
A reefer-lution outbreak is what it seems
Gimme consent, yes to vape or steam
Burn to redeem
I've been playing too hard for way too long
Burning the candle at both ends and now it's gone
I feel broken (broken)
Busted-open
I thought I was a baller but my body has spoken
No joke, we go for the glory
But I'll probably have another 'fore I finish this story
And one more inside of me
Then both my body and my mind, don't need apologies
Well, who's sorry? I'm not sorry
(Who's sorry? I'm not sorry)
Who's sorry? I'm not sorry (I'm not sorry)
I guess it's time to take a time
Time, time, time to take a time out (time out)
Slow down and take a time
Time, time, time to take a time out (time out)
I've been working overtime for way too long
I gave it everything I had 'til all emotion was gone
And now I'm hoping to move along
Away from any voice that makes me think I am wrong
I need focus
No hocus pocus
I'm gonna throw my freaking phone in the ocean
Who's sorry? I'm not sorry
(Who's sorry? I'm not sorry)
Who's sorry? I'm not sorry (I'm not sorry)
Because it's time to take a time
Time, time, time to take a time out (time out)
Lay down and take a time
Time, time, time to take a time out (time out)
It's time to take a time
Time, time, time to take a time out (time out)
4:20 is the time
Time, time, time to take a time out (time out)
Out of respect-a
I request-a
That we take a little time to siesta
Save the drama for your mama
'Cause this ain't Broadway
I'll remind ya, I require
Time to re-stoke proverbial fire
And retire a la playa
Because life is a beach anyway
I'm taking it easy (taking it easy)
I'm taking it slow (taking it slow)
You bet, I'm taking it easy (taking it easy)
I'm taking it slow
Tick a-tick a tock a dis is no time to rock
Tick a-tick a tock a this a must spliff-a-clock
Excuse me while I light mi likkle ting upon the dock
Time fi mi self ah man a mi nuh need nuh flock
Undivided and provided by mi brethren 'round the block
The sky-grade a my-grade, it loud like a Glock
Sticky like a sitten whey dem have inna the stock
Time to meditate a mi seh time to get knock (slow)
Are you medicated? And the answer is yes
Too bless to be stressed and even when mi penny less
Mi nuh worry none at all, a chaos mi nuh digest
Light another one and circumnavigate the stress
Sorry everybody but mi haffi confess
Product of the ghetto now mi living in the west
Mi nuh hesitate when mi burning the best
Mi nuh hesitate when mi burning the best
It's time to take a time
Time, time, time to take a time out (time out)
Slow down and take a time
Time, time, time to take a time out (time out)
Take a time
Time, time, time to take a time out (time out)
Slow down and take a time
Time, time, time to take a time out (mi nuh hesitate when mi burning the best)
(Mi nuh hesitate when mi burning the best)
