And the clock goes….Tick, Tick, Tick ,Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick ,Tick
The clock moves faster with every year
Shrinking road, heavy thoughts
A horizon unclear
And I made no mark
No kids to carry this name I own
No bloodline tethered
Yeah I'm walking alone
Will they forget me when I'm not around?
A whisper lost, no echo, no sound
I got fears of being just a passing phase
A fleeting moment in this worlds grand maze
Not all legacies are for the world to see
Some are written in hearts, quietly
I've shaped a life, not for crowds to applaud
But for those who felt my kindness, flawed
Generations of trust in my hands
Lives uplifted, small but grand
And no, there won't be history books with my name
But hey I shared my time
And I played this game
And the clock goes….Tick, Tick, Tick ,Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick ,Tick
Every moment's gone too quick
No way to pause, can't make it stick
Some build legacies brick by brick
While All I built was gone so quick
So maybe it's fine if I fade with dust
Not every story's carved or just
The love I gave, the souls I've known
That's legacy enough
Who cares if it's not shown
I shared a thousand moments in quiet ways
Didn't need No spotlight to brighten those days
Every life I touched, sparked joy that stays
Fading slow, but it softly sways
Let others chase glory in their fight
I found peace in smaller things that felt equally right
No houses build, no flags to wave
Just shared a laugh, some hands I gave
No trophies no milestones I tried to define
But in moments spent with heart and mind
So when the final tick fades from the air
I'll rest easy-
Knowing I was there
And the clock goes….Tick, Tick, Tick ,Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick ,Tick
Every moment's gone too quick
No way to pause, can't make it stick
Some build legacies brick by brick
While All I built was gone so quick
There's a weight in wanting more
To leave a mark on some distant shore
But the mirror shows what I've yet to see
The lives I've changed were enough for me
I feared the silence, the fading light
But walked my path and it felt right
Legacy's not just blood and name
It's the love we give, not chasing fame
Not a monument carved in stone
But the moments we claim, the lives we've known
I've made my mark in silent ways
And I wouldn't trade these humble days
If I could do it all, I'd choose the same
No louder legacy, no louder name
The time I gave, the love I shared
That's my story, written and spared
I've lived my truth, in joy and pain-
And I'd do it all again
And the clock goes….Tick, Tick, Tick ,Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick ,Tick
Every moment's gone too quick
No way to pause, can't make it stick
Some build legacies brick by brick
While All I built was gone so quick
And the clock goes….Tick, Tick, Tick ,Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick ,Tick
Tick…
