Hourglass

from “Slavery” - SATB a cappella - Original text - English - Medium

“I cannot go back, my path is set in stone.

I cannot change the pace, I am forced to move on.

Every second slips away, like sand in an hourglass.

And I am a slave to Time, I cannot surpass.

There is no pause, or rewind.

Every moment ticks away, and I remain confined.

I am a slave to Time, it holds me tight,

With chains that bind, I cannot take flight.

Every second slips away, like sand in an hourglass.

And I am a slave to Time, I cannot surpass.”
