Time is always in flux. You can measure it, you can anticipate it, but you can never control it. You're never at the helm of time. Time is an ocean, time is the ship you're in, time is also your very thoughts.

sorry for the double cover, i swear i'll write something original in 2022 ;_;

tick tock

jazzy clock

[Verse]

It begins and ends tolling the bell

Mark the eras and eons so well

Like a river flows forward, not back

So the sun it fades down to the deepest black 

Just compare it to taking a breath

Can't take one that has past or has yet to come

All we have is the here and the now

Take advantage of it

[Chorus]

In all of time, there isn't another way

and all the clocks are right twice a day

So when you find, the hours have gone away

The ticks and tocks are all that remain

[Verse]

Change has come in the blink of an eye

What you thought was forever has passed you by

All the dust is what bookends your life

Cherish all that you've got

but that's okay

All the gears fit

Clicking in synch

Ticking away as your life away leaks

Watching minutes hours days

Tick tick tick your life away

Oh stop staring at faces

Earning those graces

Never know what you need

From the rhythm of the gears in the machine

This was dumb

These magic moments

Before my eyes

Step back to see

These things time gifts to me

As each new thought comes

Adds to my memory

These are what my soul stores

Stores these things forever more

There's never any doubt of the things that I can see

My mind expands to feel the strength of our soul

As I learn, as I feel, as I think, as I breathe

These moments create me, define me

I take in what time offers to me.

When time comes gifting me

I take what I can see

When time comes gifting me

I accept what's known to be

I made a track that for a while got stuck on 2 minutes, but i ended up switching things into a more darker build up, in the second part, before it smashes back into the first part. As a result of the 6 min rule, i ended up chopping of the tail resulting in an abrupt end. Not happy with that, but i only just realised after rendering, and it's the rules i need to follow.

It's mostly ambient mixed with fast techno/hardcore combined with orchestral passages, choirs, breakbeats and lead solo melodies. I like this one, although i might have gone a bit too far with the middle bit, a bit too carried away if you will lol. Anyways, hope you enjoy!
