Текст песни Time Doesn't Exist In The Peachtree - M. Spoon

"They" say time is money
Why is that
When did that become a thing
Who decided that
It doesn't really matter, anyway
Because they're wrong
Time is the most important thing we have
You cannot get time back
You just took 10 seconds of your life to read this
Or 25 depending on who you are
And I sincerely appreciate that, and I thank you for caring enough to do so
For real
Because you cannot get time back

Some cultures understand this better than others
Some represent it differently than others
But in certain cultures, the peach is a symbol of longevity and immortality, foreverness
However, in a certain culture
The peach was a cash crop symbol that was just as, if not, sweeter
Than the blood that ran down the whipped backs of the slaves
Who slaved over that soft, fuzzy outer layer
For those greedy, glutenous plantation owners
Quite the juxtaposition, huh
Spoon, man, what is this
You good
Yeah, yo
I'm fine
Actually, doing the best I've ever done, thanks

I made the beat and wrote the song during Thanksgiving season, the best holiday
When I was visiting my Gram and Papa with my Pops in, you guessed it, Georgia
Douglasville, baby, how we doin'
Just something about being with the fam for the holidays and the nostalgia
Big thinking, you know
But I'm writing this because you won't understand "Peachtree" if I don't
Sorry, but I know I'm right
I'm writing this to tell you to wake up
Stop being comfortable, stop assuming
Have courage, have an original thought, please
Peachtree isn't about a person, never was
Wait, what
It's about a collective: my audience, my fans
You, the one that I really can't thank enough for still reading this far
Still devoting your time to what I have to say because you care enough
It's about y'all because
If you care about me, then I care about you
And I want you to feel something
I want you to enjoy what I make
And I'm learning, that if you don't
Then honestly, that's cool, too
But that's another convo, for another day
Just listen again and this time, think about time
Oh yeah
The thing I was originally talking about
I hope you don't think
I'm wasting yours
But yes, time
Whenever someo- and you know what the scariest part is
The older we get
Ah, I think you know the rest
So, don't be afraid to take chances
Learn
Lust
Live
Laugh
Love
Y'all get that joke
Just don't forget, to use your time wisely
Because we can't get it back
M. Spoon, Momotarō

P.S
For those, that understand
Shoutout Outkast
And if you really knew what it was about
Then hit my DM, and first round's on me
