I was on the level when I began to slide
I was on the top rung too when I began to climb
I called you up from the abyss
To say the purpose of your life is
Just to live your life
The life that you are living

They don�t know what they�re doing
They do it very well
If you ask for Heaven
Oh, they'll try to sell you Hell
And if you live within their laws
They�ll take your life and still want more
And they�ll hurry you so just tell them to

Take time, it�ll be fine
Take time, what�s your hurry to be dying?
You�ve got a life to live
If only you could give

If you don�t have money
They'll try to keep you poor
And if you�ve lots of money
Oh, they'll try to give you more
And we were born with simple needs
But they teach us creed and not to read
This is our world too so just tell them to

Take time, it�ll be fine
Take time, what�s your hurry to be dying?
You�ve got a life to live
If only you could give

I want your attention
Time is their invention
Take time but take it easy
Take it like the time
