Intro I saw my future once. Not in a dream — In a decision. ⸻ Verse 1 I went ten years ahead in a quiet room, Met a man I didn’t assume. Same face, just steadier eyes, No excuses, no disguise. He didn’t talk about who was wrong, Didn’t blame where he came from. Didn’t curse what broke his start — He rebuilt it part by part. He said, “Life hit you? Good. Now lift it.” “Storm came through? Then shift it.” “You want control? Then take it.” “No one’s coming to make it.” I saw the house before the grind, Saw the peace inside his mind. And the only difference I could see — Was responsibility. ⸻ Chorus 1 My mind’s a time machine I’ve seen who I could be He said it’s not about blame It’s about what you claim Step by step Brick by brick Own your loss Own your risk I don’t wait for life to fix me I catch up to who I’m meant to be ⸻ Verse 2 He showed me mornings I’d ignore, Alarms I used to snooze before. Said, “Greatness isn’t loud or bright — It’s built in boring things done right.” He said, “Momentum beats emotion. Small deposits grow devotion. You don’t rise in one big leap — You stack the promises you keep.” No viral moment. No overnight. Just showing up And doing it right. He said, “The future isn’t far away. It’s hidden in what you do today. If you want to meet the stronger you — Do what he would choose.” ⸻ Verse 3 I told him, “But it wasn’t fair.” He said, “Fair never built anywhere.” “You can sit in what they did, Or build from what you lived. You can be right and still lose, Or be strong enough to choose.” He showed me nights I almost quit, Moments I was sick of it. Times I wanted someone else To carry weight I felt. He said, “Pain’s not your enemy. Avoidance is.” “You don’t get stronger By explaining it.” Every scar becomes a tool, Every setback breaks a rule. Every time you stand alone — You step into your throne. ⸻ Chorus 2 My mind’s a time machine Future clarity He said, “Own everything — Even what you didn’t mean.” Own the clock Own the scars Own the doubt Own the start It’s not about what happened It’s about who you are I don’t wait for destiny I take responsibility ⸻ Verse 4 Then he showed me further still, A life that echoed past my will. People watching how I stand, Kids repeating what I am. He said, “You think this ends with you? Your choices travel forward too. You’re not just building for today — You’re setting someone else’s way.” He showed me strength in quiet tone, Stability that felt like home. Not loud success, not flashy fame — Just discipline that stayed the same. He said, “The man you’re meant to be Is someone others need to see. So act like he already lives — And give what he would give.” ⸻ Final Chorus Time Time doesn’t change you ownership does And the future its waiting for you to move I saw my future once My mind is a Time Machine I already seen. My mind is a Time Machine. I’ve already seen. My mind is a Time Machine. I saw my future once. I saw my future
