[00:02.22][Intro: Pete Rock]
[00:03.29]Zone out now, one two, yo
[00:06.53]This goes out to all coasts
[00:08.90]East coast, West coast
[00:14.26]And all across the nation, worldwide
[00:18.39]Know what I mean? Relax, kick your feet up
[00:21.44]Spark one, let me show you how it's done
[00:24.03]Blow lady
[00:24.69][Hook: Jane Eugene]
[00:24.96]Sunrise, starts the day
[00:29.72]Lay back, ease your pain
[00:35.19]Don't sweat, simple things
[00:40.38]Take your time, do your thing
[00:44.26][Verse 1: Pete Rock]
[00:44.80]As grains of sand pass from hand to hand
[00:47.54]I watch time stand still I'm just one man
[00:50.04]That's out for all so all should be for one
[00:52.71]Grew up on the drum with the J.B. "Unh!"
[00:55.62]The son, who spun the record that his pop's collected
[00:58.12]Went on to create and perfect the unexpected
[01:00.74]Funky beat sound watch the family "Get down!"
[01:03.21]Slide with the right and give cousin a pound
[01:05.46]Watch the young ones play and think back in the day
[01:08.15]When fresh was the style, plus the word to say
[01:10.75]It's all love now, let me show you how
[01:14.53]To take time out, and show you what life's about
[01:15.88][Chorus: Jane Eugene and Carl McIntosh]
[01:16.32]Take your time walk the line just a matter of time
[01:20.77]Take your time walk the line just a matter of time
[01:27.25]Take your time walk the line just a matter of time
[01:33.92]Oo-ooh, just a matter of time
[01:37.60][Pre-verse: Jane Eugene]
[01:38.04]Feel the flow, and let it go
[01:42.85]Unwind, relax your mind
[01:47.97]Stay a while, take your time
[01:53.19]Bet you'll find, peace of mind
[01:57.24][Verse 2: Pete Rock]
[01:57.61]With a, douse of soul, I'm back in control
[02:00.29]My goal sees the world pass from young to old
[02:03.24]Unfold a new tale, see yourself on scale
[02:05.83]2000 the year my black people prevail
[02:08.36]Yo straight up and down I got love for this son
[02:10.78]Nine years in the mix and if time permits
[02:13.56]I'll continue to make my melody for the tapes
[02:15.87]And walk the fine line between love and hate
[02:18.42][Chorus: Jane Eugene and Carl McIntosh]
[02:18.81]Take your time walk the line just a matter of time
[02:24.73]Take your time walk the line just a matter of time
[02:29.92]Take your time walk the line just a matter of time
[02:36.35]Oo-ooh, just a matter of time
[02:42.89]
