Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] Running on borrowed time, [C] living on stolen dreams,
[D] Trying to find some peace in [Em] this crazy scene.
[G] The city lights are bright, but [C] they can’t outshine,
[D] The hope in our hearts, [Em] under the Brooklyn skyline.
(Chorus)
[G] We’re Present Timing, [C] living the now.
[D] No future worries, [Em] we’ll make it somehow.
[G] Right here, right now, [C] is where we shine.
[D] Running on borrowed time, [Em] we’re still alive.
(Verse 2)
[G] Music is our muse, [C] New York our home,
[D] Through every bruise, [Em] our love has grown.
[G] Strumming the strings, [C] beating the drums,
[D] This is our destiny, [Em] this is where we belong.
(Chorus)
[G] We’re Present Timing, [C] feeling the beat.
[D] Each note’s a promise, [Em] each lyric a feat.
[G] In every song, [C] in every rhyme,
[D] Running on borrowed time, [Em] we’re on repeat.
