TIME MOVING SLOW Song Lyrics

TIME MOVING SLOW by Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign, ¥$

[Refrain: Sunday Service Choir]
You were the only thing that felt like home
How I thought I had it all?
Going through the messages that's stored on my phone
Read questions like I'm not alone

[Verse 1: Kanye West]
We was gone off that old potion, hit that slow motion, what you got?
Going rogue, someone left the stove open, we too hot
It was double R, we was Range Rovin' with the Rocky Rollie, Rolls-Royce
Ruff Ryder Anthem just to drop, huh
Reach for the popcorn, oops, that's my cock, huh
Got my heart broke, I liked that b**ch a lot, huh
Time, time moving slow, I ain't trippin', no
I thought you had to know

[Chorus: Ty Dolla $ign & Kanye West]
Time moving slow
I just thought you had to know
Time moving slow

[Refrain: Ty Dolla $ign]
You were the only thing that felt like home
I thought I had it all
Going through the messages that's stored on my phone
Read questions like I'm not alone
You were the only thing that felt like—
[Bridge: Ty Dolla $ign & Sunday Service Choir]
Time moving slow (Time moving slow)
Time moving slow (Time moving slow)
Time moving slow (Time moving slow)
Enjoy the time moving slow, oh yeah
Enjoy the—

[Interlude: Kanye West]
I run it, uh, uh-
Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm

[Verse 2: Kanye West]
I can't believe in you niggas, I see through you niggas
Exceeded the limits, took over my story and rewrote the endin', I did
Had to show up and deliver that sh*t
Had the yacht out on the ocean, I did
Go ahead, cry me a river, you b**ch
You tried to bring me to my lowest, I still brought the vision
I see through the blinds
When everyone is, it's a sign of the times
Niggas been fallin' behind
I got some images stuck in my mind
I gotta hit 'em, the perfectest time
We finna get it this time
We goin' bigger this time
Feelin' like Jig' in his prime
[Chorus: Ty Dolla $ign & Kanye West]
Time moving slow
I thought you had to know
Time moving slow
I thought you had to know
Time moving slow
Enjoy the time moving slow, oh yeah
