歌詞

Tick—tick—tick… in my chest it clicks

Like a tiny metronome teaching me tricks

Tick—tick—tick… yeah I hear you, I do

But don’t rush me, don’t rush me, don’t rush me

I wake up to a clock-face grin

Minute hand dancing on my skin

A quiet drum behind my eyes

Counting my “later” as it flies

There’s a voice that sounds like me

But it never lets me breathe

Saying “move, move, move, don’t stall”

Like I’m late to my own call

I get it, time is not a friend

It doesn’t wait, it doesn’t bend

But panic never made it right

It only steals the groove at night

So—

Don’t rush me, I’m listening

Don’t rush me, I’m building it

Slow hands, sure steps, clean chemistry

I’ll get there—just don’t rush me

[Pre-Chorus : Female Vocal]

I know what I gotta do

I’m not lost, I’m just choosing

A tempo that’s true, not bruising

So hush the push—let me move it

Don’t rush me (Don’t rush me)

I’m on time in my own time

Don’t rush me (Don’t rush me)

Good things land on the right line

I’m steady—heavy on the downbeat

I’m ready—when my breath meets

The moment—yeah, I want it

But I won’t break just to run it

Don’t rush me

I’ve seen fast turn into mess

Shortcuts wearing a nice dress

Glitter talks, but the seams tear

When you pull it with despair

“More haste, less speed." in my mind

Take the long way, save your spine

Circle back with clearer hands

That’s how real work understands

The second hand can tap and tease

But I refuse the anxious squeeze

I’ll stir the pot, not spill the soup

Keep the swing inside the loop

So—

Don’t rush me, I’m crafting it

Don’t rush me, I’m laughing at

That inner drill sergeant energy

I’ll get there—just don’t rush me

I know what I gotta do

I’m not slow, I’m just precise

A calm little roll of the dice

That lands right—without the price

Don’t rush me (Don’t rush me)

I’m on time in my own time

Don’t rush me (Don’t rush me)

Good things land on the right line

I’m steady—heavy on the downbeat

I’m ready—when my breath meets

The moment—yeah, I want it

But I won’t break just to run it

Don’t rush me

If life is short, let it be wide

Let it be deep, let it be kind

I won’t sprint through a sunrise

Just to say I survived

Tick—tick—tick, I hear the fear

Tick—tick—tick, it’s loud in here

But calm is also a choice I make

A soft jazz step, a clean escape

Hold up—

I’m not behind, I’m aligned

I’m not late, I’m awake

I’m not stuck, I’m in shape

For the ride that I take

Yeah, the clock talk loud like a boss in my brain

“Do it right now” — nah, I’m not your chain

I got a schedule, but I’m not your slave

I’m in the pocket where the cool air stays

Second hand flex, little circular threat

But hurry don’t pay—only hurry regrets

If you rush the recipe, you ruin the taste

If you chase the finish, you trip in the race

I know the ending, I feel that pull

Time’s like a river, but panic ain’t cool

“Go faster” voice? I mute that track

Put the swing back in the steps I lack

More haste, less speed—loop, then land

Long way home with a steady hand

I’m doing the work, I’m earning the view

Just give me the space—watch what I do

So don’t rush me—

I’m not stalling, I’m setting the tone

I’m not falling, I’m finding my own

I move smooth, I move smart, I move free

If it’s meant for me, it will meet me—see?

Mm…

Breathe in—two, three, four

Breathe out—let it go

I’m not a machine

I’m a rhythm with a soul

Don’t rush me (Don’t rush me)

I’m on time in my own time

Don’t rush me (Don’t rush me)

Good things land on the right line

I’m steady—heavy on the downbeat

I’m ready—when my breath meets

The moment—yeah, I want it

But I won’t break just to run it

Don’t rush me

Tick—tick—tick… it fades, it fades

I walk my pace, I keep my grace

Tick—tick—tick… I hear you, I do

But don’t rush me…

Don’t rush me…

Don’t rush me…
