TikTok ain't the sound that the clock makes
Moonrocks knockin' socks off, a toker takes
TikTok ain’t the sound that the clock makes
And moonrocks knockin socks off, a toker takes
Times are changing and you know what they all say
Move along anyway
Live to fight another day
All the stop signs fell to the sidelines
Now the referees are playing for a bad time
All the stress and we turn to the divine
Praying for an offsides
Hoping we can feel alive
Mother lost me at the age of eighteen
Father told me Time’s not for wasting
Home Sweet Home ain’t a place of plenty
Need to find my own feet
Taking on the driver’s seat
I was home, but my soul was roamin
Opportunity kept on phonin
I had to leave, had to seize my moment
See my spirit glowing
Where am I going?
Cuz TikTok ain’t the sound that the clock makes
And moonrocks knockin socks off, a toker takes
Times are changing and you know what they all say
Move along anyway
Live to fight another day
And if God has seat at the table
Tell him I’m playing one of his angels
Had enough of his myths and fables
Calling his bluff
Before I left my cradle
I built this house and made my own Home
A space where I can be free and alone
A place where I can kick my shoes off, but uh-oh
Nobody told me
Life is for the faithful
And I’d left my heart, my friends, my family
To grow and rise and build and show ‘em what I could be
They never cared, but yet I could never see
Home is where the heart is
That’s where all your people be
Still TikTok ain’t the sound that the clock makes
And moonrocks knockin socks off, a toker takes
Times are changing and you know what they all say
Move along anyway
Live to fight another day
