Matter of time
By: Jonathan Robinson & Jason Robinsonaround the time he died.
I knew then, I would need to buckle up,
it'd be a rough ride.
This question grabbed my heart,
and wrestled with my soul.
My God, why did he go?
I wanted to scream!
I wanted to shout!
Desperation and fear,
seemed to hallow me out.
Rejection of hope,
invitation for doubt.
Death darkened my road,
but I would find a new route.
We're born to live.
To live this life.
With the ones we love,
but they all die.
Don't waste your time,
wondering why.
Cause ready or not,
it's just a matter of time.
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh (Time, Time)
It's just a matter of time. (Time, Time)
It's just a matter of time. (Time, Time)
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh (Time, Time)
It's just a matter of time. (Time, Time)
Around thirteen,
is when I would decide.
I chose then.
I'm thankful for the time spent by his side.
The aching in my heart,
and sorrow in my soul.
I had to learn to let them go.
I wanted to scream!
I wanted to shout!
Desperation and fear,
almost hallowed me out.
Reception of hope,
cancelation of doubt.
Death darkened my road,
but I found a new route.
We're born to live.
To live this life.
With the ones we love,
but they all die.
Don't waste your time,
wondering why.
Cause ready or not,
it's just a matter of time.
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh (Time, Time)
It's just a matter of time. (Time, Time)
It's just a matter of time. (Time, Time)
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh (Time, Time)
It's just a matter of time. (Time, Time)
Please don't let the time pass by.
Please don't let the time pass by.
We're born to live.
To live this life.
With the ones we love,
but they all die.
Don't waste your time,
wondering why.
Cause ready or not,
it's just a matter of time.
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh (Time, Time)
It's just a matter of time. (Time, Time)
It's just a matter of time. (Time, Time)
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh (Time, Time)
It's just a matter of time. (Time, Time)
It's just a matter of time.
Please don't let the time pass by.
Please don't let the time pass by.
It's just a matter of time.
(Time, Time, Time, Time ... Time, Time)
It's just a matter of time.
(Time, Time, Time, Time ... Time, Time)
Sound Advice
My love and fascination of music drew me to music composition. Combined with the joy of thoroughly communicating my feelings and thoughts, songwriting became something I wanted to share with others. The chance that others might identify with my personal experiences and observations while nodding or singing along, and the prospect of having someone's attention for a couple of minutes, and possibly impacting them positively for a lifetime. These were my motivations for recording Sound Advice.
