Waiting is Over

Stop, let me think of this for a minute
Bona…
I’m cool with this fella, le-go-getter wa go dikena
Got cool swagger, make cool smega
'Cause wa bereka, o nna gae
Wants his own crib though, ko toropong
But only got a certificate, ko parolong
He got a wife, bitjienyana a kena dikolotong
Stay with life, later die man a phela dicholopong
Went to his crib, chill smooth *** ko kamoreng
Are Jabba, you’ll never believe gore ke tlo goreng
«I got AIDS, dog!»
I got played, dog, by my own wife
In my mansion I’m a slave, dog
This disease got me slashing my arms
Even worse, I don’t even know how I’m gon' tell my moms
I’m a good guy, dude
I work hard, nine to five, why should I die, dude?
All I want is to stay alive
How will I survive, he whispers down the corridor
What had ended all, lesson to work for the
And I don’t even know now what I’m living for
Eish!
(The waiting is over, oh!)
The waiting is over
Trying to put your weight on my shoulder
And when it gets colder
I’ll be here to land a hand like a soldier
Sometimes life is not that coucher
But don’t say I never told ya
The waiting is over
Trying to put your weight on my shoulder
And when it gets colder
I’ll be here to land a hand like I told ya
Sometimes life is not that coucher
But don’t say I never told ya
Most brothers sleep walk while providing a wall
Stale mate, jail bait, getting caught with they arms
If he under 18 he go to court with his moms
The black man is invisible in physical form
Figure that he dead or he off robbing the store
Tryna bake bread, didn’t know the oven was off
Hittin' base as hustlin' in Brooklyn New York
It’s cliché but It’s cliché when brothers get caught
I was self taught to get it, so fortunate and
My circumstance with chance was so hidden
Pulled up my pants, advance to transform the norm like Louis Armstrong holding
a horn
By that I mean I trump whoever on
My truth is in the booth, that’s from dusk to dawn
And all my brothers on the block smokin' *** stay strong (Strong, strong,
strong, strong)
The waiting is over
You back home from doing your time, on the block where you used to grind
Standing in front the same shop where you used to buy and use your 9
This time you’ll use your mind
I said It’s over
You back home from doing your time, on the block where you used to grind
Standing in front the same shop where you used to buy and use your 9
This time you’ll use your mind
I said It’s over
