"It Might Be Time" is a song by Tame Impala, the musical project of the Australian multi-instrumentalist Kevin Parker. It was released through Modular Recordings and Island Records Australia on 28 October 2019, as the second single from the project's fourth studio album, The Slow Rush (2020). Parker wrote and produced the song while performing all the instruments and vocals. Predominantly led by drums, piano, and guitar, it was described by Pitchfork as a psychedelic rock and art pop song, with elements of electronic music. Lyrically, it focuses on the passage of time and the feeling of getting older.
