Time slips through our fingers
Like sand on the breeze
It's the one thing we're losing
With such reckless ease
We're chasing the future
But forget where we stand
Each moment's a treasure
Like gold in our hands
But we scroll and we stall
While the seconds unwind
Ignoring the gift
That we can't realign
We borrow, we waste
We pretend it's a game
But time won't rewind
It just won't stay the same
Respect the clock
It's all that we've got
Every tick, every tock
Is a moment we forgot
Don't let it fade
Like a shadow at night
Time is the currency
Let's spend it right
We cancel, we ghost
We don't even call
We act like forever's
A promise to all
But seconds are sacred
And minutes are rare
Let's honor each other
Show love and care
'Cause a moment lost
Is a wound that won't heal
A chance to connect
That we'll never feel
So hold what you have
Don't let it slip by
The hands on the clock
Never tell us a lie
Respect the clock
It's all that we've got
Every tick, every tock
Is a moment we forgot
Don't let it fade
Like a shadow at night
Time is the currency
Let's spend it right
What if we lived
Like the minutes could end?
Would we waste less on silence
And more on our friends?
What if we gave
Every second its due?
Would we honor the hours
And cherish the view?
Respect the clock
It's all that we've got
Every tick, every tock
Is a moment we forgot
Don't let it fade
Like a shadow at night
Time is the currency
Let's spend it right
So here's to the hours
The days, and the years
To the laughter, the love
And the drying of tears
Let's live for the now
Not the what-comes-to-be
Respecting our time
Is what sets us free
