Time - Chances

To Rate
I take my chances with wolves i take my chances with drought
I dug a well with these words, my mouth is the spout
Are dreams the language of the soul, if so make me fluent
For school i was truant for alchemy i'm a student
The difference between you and me is i do it
I don't drink lean i'm a machine i drink coolant
I spit steam in the booth, like a smoke stack polluting
Bars highly concentrated you need to dilute em
Paulo's path pursued it, i'm a poet i'm a mutant
I rock hard but fuck ted nugent, leave racists in ruins
The flow is automatic thеy distract you with pateks
Do you make music for shopping or classics like thе ecstatic?
Nightmares we go to war with them in the dream auditorium
Bring an urn, we turn shows to crematoriums
I'm not a living legend i'm just living in the present
The frankincense burned, the moon was a crescent

I take my chance with this pen i take my chance with this ink
I take my chance when i speak and tell you what i think
I take my chance with these words that paint with my soul
I take my chance on this path and surrender control
I take my chance with this pen i take my chance with this ink
I take my chance when i speak and tell you what i think
I take my chance with these words that paint with my soul
I take my chance on this path and surrender control
I take my chance with these dreams, i take my chance with this mic
He said what does it mean when you dream the same dream twice?
She said it could be a trick or a sign of passion
She said it could be destiny or another distraction
He said what does that mean? she said go with your gut
She said intuition is when alchemy erupts
Thoughts like tectonic plates he made an earthquake
A cemetery for souls? that's called a workplace
He broke outta the cubicle and hr manuals
Singing a synonym for shareholder is cannibal
Is a skyscraper a temple for materialists?
Jets fly over football games cuz we're imperialists?
Rome worshiped death but the us does it best
The country's a coliseum, even teachers wear vests
I'm not a living legend i'm just living in the present
The nag champa burned, paulo's path omnipresent

I take my chance with this pen i take my chance with this ink
I take my chance when i speak and tell you what i think
I take my chance with these words that paint with my soul
I take my chance on this path and surrender control
I take my chance with this pen i take my chance with this ink
I take my chance when i speak and tell you what i think
I take my chance with these words that paint with my soul
I take my chance on this path and surrender control

Time

Time was a rock band from Yugoslavia that made a significant impact on the music scene in the 1970s. Formed in 1971 by Dado Topić, who had previously been a member of Korni Grupa, the band quickly gained a following with their unique blend of progressive rock and jazz influences.

The original lineup of Time included Dado Topić on vocals, Tihomir “Pop” Asanović on organ, Vedran Božić on guitar, Mario Mavrin on bass, Ratko Divjak on drums, and Brane Lambert Živković on piano and flute. Over the years, the lineup changed frequently, but the core members remained dedicated to creating innovative and captivating music.

Time released three albums during their time together, each showcasing their musical versatility and talent. Their first album featured a prominent Hammond organ, piano, and flute, while their second album had a harder sound with several ballads. The third album introduced a jazz-funk production style, further expanding their musical repertoire.

Some of Time's most popular songs include “Da li znaš da te volim”, “Rock ‘n’ roll u Beogradu”, and “Istina mašina”, which showcased their ability to create memorable and engaging music that resonated with audiences.

After disbanding in late 1977, Dado Topić embarked on a successful solo career, but the legacy of Time continued to live on. In 1998 and 2001, the band reunited for a limited number of live concerts, delighting fans with their timeless music and energetic performances.

Today, Time still plays together as a rock trio, continuing to captivate audiences with their unique sound and enduring musical legacy. Their influence can be heard in the work of many contemporary artists, solidifying their place in the history of Yugoslavian rock music.
