In Time is a 2011 American dystopian science fiction action thriller film written, directed, and produced by Andrew Niccol and starring Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried and Cillian Murphy that takes place in a society where people stop aging at 25 and each has a clock on their arm that counts down how long they have to live. The film was released on October 28, 2011.
In 2169, people are genetically engineered with perfect health and appearance. Each has a digital clock on their forearm; when they turn 25, they stop aging and their clock begins counting down from 1 year. When the clock reaches zero, that person "times out" and dies. Time has become the universal currency; it is used to pay for daily expenses and can be transferred between people or "time capsules" - the equivalent of wallets. The country has been divided into "time zones" based on the wealth of the population. The film focuses on two specific zones: Dayton - a poor manufacturing area where people generally have 24 hours or less on their clock at any given time - and New Greenwich - the wealthiest time zone, where people have enough time on their clock to live for centuries.
Time is a measure in which events can be ordered from the past through the present into the future, and also the measure of durations of events and the intervals between them. Time is often referred to as the fourth dimension, along with the three spatial dimensions.
Time has long been a major subject of study in religion, philosophy, and science, but defining it in a manner applicable to all fields without circularity has consistently eluded scholars. Nevertheless, diverse fields such as business, industry, sports, the sciences, and the performing arts all incorporate some notion of time into their respective measuring systems. Some simple definitions of time include "time is what clocks measure", which is a problematically vague and self-referential definition that utilizes the device used to measure the subject as the definition of the subject, and "time is what keeps everything from happening at once", which is without substantive meaning in the absence of the definition of simultaneity in the context of the limitations of human sensation, observation of events, and the perception of such events.
Banco de Gaia is an electronic music band from England, formed in 1989 by Toby Marks (born 1964, South London).
The music of Banco de Gaia is best categorized as ambient dub, but Marks works to cross genres, often using Arabic and Middle Eastern samples against a bass heavy reggae, rock, or trance rhythm to produce deeply textured tracks that progress layer upon layer.
In 1978, Marks began his musical career as a drummer in a heavy metal band.
Marks moved to Portugal in 1986 and played Beatles music for tourists. He first delved into electronic music in 1989, when he bought a digital sampler. The first tune he recorded on it was called "Maxwell House."
Having cut his teeth on the early 90s Ambient Dub compilations, in 1994 he released his first studio album Maya on Planet Dog records, which was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize on its release. It was followed in 1995 by the critically acclaimed Last Train to Lhasa. Both albums reached No1 in the UK independent charts and featured in the national album chart top 40. In the following decade Banco De Gaia released Live at Glastonbury, Big Men Cry, The Magical Sounds of Banco De Gaia, Igizeh and You Are Here.

Hey yo, Carter got it beat, these times and probably
Won't be around for nigga's to finish playing Monopoly
Yo, it's the dolla's B, that got me writin' apologies
The bill collectors, plead the fifth or cop a plea
When they follow me, I'm duckin' like somebody shot at me
If I had my way (I'd hit the highway)
Life would be just fine (Party on Friday)
But the world's too much (It's too much, too much)
And it makes me cry (Feel like I had enough)
Sometimes I feel like leaving (I'm on my way)
But I must be wise (Think twice)
Because time (Come on, sing it wit' me now)
Is not on our side
(Don't you know that time's not on our side)
Because time is not on our side
The end is coming, stop your running
I'm telling you this is the truth
You can talk about what you read about
Everything is on the news
People nowadays so shady
Now what is wrong with them
Something cast a spell up on their minds
And they always wanna condemn
If I had my way (Uh huh)
Life would be just fine (Life would be fine)
But the world's too much (Too much, too much)
And it makes me cry
Sometimes I feel like leaving (It's gotta be gone)
But I must be wise (Mary Jane cries)
Because time (Come on, sing it wit' me now)

Because time is not on our side
While you're judging me, you should look around
And you'll see how people goin' down
Some of them are killed over a dime
Now tell me do we really have time
To continue with this madness
Cuz I'm sick and tired of it
Trying to crush my world with jealousy
And I'm about to catch a fit
If I had my way (I'd hit the highway)
Life would be just fine (Party on Friday)
But the world's too much (It's too much, too much)
And it makes me cry (Feel like I had enough)
Sometimes I feel like leaving (I'm on my way)
But I must be wise (Yo, think twice)
Because time (Sing it wit' me now)
Is not on our side (Uh huh, yup yup)
(Don't you know that time's not on our side)
Because time (Yo, time is running out)
Is not on our side (On our side)
You're deceiving (You can tell lies)
What's the meaning (Then they can falsefy)
If you're retrieving (You're ready for the don)
The enemy's greeting (You know it, ya'all can die)
You all are leaving (Whut) someday but (Whut)
They don't know how (Whut) we are going (Uh uh)
Please believe me (Whut) when I tell you (Whut)
That time is (Whut) not really on our side
Yo, yo, aight
We gon' talk about life for a minute
How many nigga's out here do dirt but won't admit it, huh?
How many nigga's know shorty young, but still hit it
Same nigga's that'll snatch your chains off and run wit' it
Yellin' Mary J, more cash than Mary K.
It rains every day, rock jewels the heavy way
Shorty's wanna talk to the guard, but anyways
All the stress that I got in my life, that make me say
If I had my way
Life would be just fine
But the world's too much
And it makes me cry
Sometimes I feel like leaving
But I must be wise
Because time
Is not on our side
(Don't you know that time is not on our side)
Because time is not on our side

They mean so much to us
They'll soon be leaders
And they will lead us to the rightous path
