Lives the timer needs to go

I have over 100 lives but I can't use them GET RID OF THE TIMER if it your way of getting me to buy lives...I'll Uninstall the game after many many years of playing I don't always have alot of time to play but when I do 5 lives isn't always enough especially when I have 100 that were given to me by friends but you have LOCKED ME OUT OF THEM.... why have friends send lives if I can't use them WHEN I WANT!
