He simply says that he is running out of time. He still has his emotions after Sans is returned to life, so he obvously dosen't have the emotions because he has Sans' human SOUL. 1. He still acts emotional as Flowey in his post-credits scene, though, so that doesn't add up.

So you're saying that... even in the post-credits scene... he still has Sans' SOUL? So Sans is dead in the post-credit's scene?

2. Sans remembers every erased and existent timeline of Undertale. Moreover, specifically in the Genocide Run, there is some evidence that he doesn't have a soul of his own.

What evidence?

Firstly, all the Boss Monsters have their own SOUL Modes to match the six human souls except Sans.

Sans isn't a Boss Monster. Boss Monsters are TORIEL, ASGORE, and ASRIEL's race, not Sans'.

Secondly, Sans describes his difficulty to "give it his all" during his fight, indicating a feeling of apathy. You know who else has a feeling of apathy shortly after being deprived of a soul? Flowey, right when he's created.

Sans ALWAYS has a feeling of apathy. He's a lazy guy, that's just the facts. He has that feeling because he knows that anything he does is going to be pointless; that's just the facts.

Plus, remember, Sans shows much less humanity and empathy during his Genocide fight than anywhere else in the game, offering to spare the player only to kill him shortly thereafter with a casual "getttttttttt dunked on!" That, by the way, mirror's Flowey's intro sequence, where he pretends to offer the player "friendliness pellets" only to use them to injure the player.

That's because you KILLED EVERYONE! You can't expect him to be FRIENDLY with you! [http://undertale.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:81536 Oh, and he straight-up tells you he's going to kill you if you show MERCY. ]
