"If Time Were To Standstill"
A fafou and Guey2 Collaboration


  Guey2:

Dont Know Why - Norah Jones

If time stood still stagnating chronology
would those who hold back live life with no apology
defy negative self prophecy's
for the chance to see life oppositely
garner scars before all eyes to see
and challenge the illusion of democracy
with the pausing of the time space continuum
all benefits from these actions would be
impossible to see
for that which stops ur bad, sometimes stops ur good
with the same speed.

  fafou:

They say life is like a box of roses
So ima live it up before that box closes
Full of opportunities and emotional bliss
Full of chances of clashing with deaths kiss
You know what they say, they say life is good
And ima say that I'm high off of it like crackheads in the hood.
Why sit around and wish that you could
When you needa be livin life and just should..
Or maybe we would..
If we got a chance and time stood..
but since you mention that my bad would stop my good
ima stand still like a hard piece of wood.

  Guey2:

If

Time

Were

To

Stand
.

Still

Could we also make it reverse
following this proposition what things would you see first
moments of wretched weakness and deep hurt
muddled around boredom and falsehoods were
you try to make others see worth
undesirable achievements filled with consequences disguised as rewards
i guess what i am asking is do you think your living the life you truly deserve
or one where you only dream of rebirth

  fafou:

undesirable consequences is what shall be deserved
and disguised achievements is what i preserve
living life in the form of rebirth is not a main concern
while the chronicles of life is what my intellect discerns..
i see you choose to be controversial(see-uhl)
..slap time back throw it into reversial
but this just happens to be an unfortunate chain of events
so we must sit here and play the part of being pretence
and stop being so damn tense!
cause see...
if we had the opportunity..
and.
time..stood.
still.

i'd be on full speed like runnin on a treadmill
but were being held captive against our freewill...
so spend ur time wisely and make sure your motivation is to fulfill...
because time..
will NEVER.
stand.still.

Deep concept my prophetic poets. You paint the picture well. I could feel the presence of your rhymes transition me to a place where it felt like time stood still. Keep pushing that pad you two. Peace and much love to ya.
