If I could buy a spaceship
I don’t think I’d ever come back to this planet
I told you that I hate this
You told me that you love when I act like that
I can’t even face it
Running for so long I could never look back
Hoping that I make it
But I’m working so it’s all guaranteed and not a chance
I took chances on things
I was back on the ropes
I was gambling my life
I can’t take it no more
I lost faith in myself
I lost track on the road
I stopped chasing a dream
I been chasing my soul
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
If I could buy a spaceship
I would never put a rear view mirror on it
I would never use brakes
I accelerate
To a better place
Farther into space
In the sky flying high towards heavens gates
On my planet all I’ll ever do is celebrate
Only time I wear a tie is on my wedding date
All we gonna eat is shrimp buffet and cheddar bay
I took chances on things
I was back on the ropes
I was gambling my life
I can’t take it no more
I lost faith in myself
I lost track on the road
I stopped chasing a dream
I been chasing my soul
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more (I don't got no)
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
Ain’t no time, can’t play no more
If only we could sing a song to astronauts
The space between us always kept me silent
Trusting I won't freeze before perfection
The memory is better than what's real
