I can barely understand your post.
This is all I can tell you:
Use print to print
And [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/timer/Simple]timer.Simple[/url] for the timer

if your intent is to draw some text on the screen then stop drawing after five seconds,
[lua]
local DrawTime
hook.Add( "HUDPaint", "DrawMyText", function()
if DrawTime and RealTime() - DrawTime <= 5 then
draw.DrawText( "Hello there!", "TargetID", ScrW() * 0.5, ScrH() * 0.25, Color( 255, 255, 255 ), TEXT_ALIGN_CENTER )
end
end )
concommand.Add( "zcore_tes1t", function()
DrawTime = RealTime()
end )
[/lua]

an explanation for why yours doesn't work:
drawing things onto the screen needs to be called in a 2D context. HUDPaint provides this context. there are [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Render_Order]other hooks[/url] too. pick one you'd like, i'd recommend HUDPaint for this.
even if your calling draw.DrawText [i]was[/i] in a 2D rendering context, it would only be visible for a single frame, which is why you need to hook it.
you can switch from 3D contexts to 2D contexts using [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/cam/Start3D2D]cam.Start3D2D[/url] and vice versa with [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/cam/Start3D]cam.Start3D[/url]
