I've been waiting for the day for my father come around Waiting for that moment when we would paint the town but Then it all hit me, last night, nobody's coming I've been waiting for that moment when my heart heals Waiting for someone to take away the pain that I feel Then it all hit me last night, nobody's coming But why should I dwell on the things that I can't change? (Things that I can't change) What if I'm the answer for things that I've prayed? (Things that I've prayed) All I know is If nothing changes before I'm gone I got no one else I can blame it on And we been waiting way too long What if we're the ones that we're waiting on (What you waiting for) I've been waiting on peace, but I just bought a piece One under the bed, and one under seat I don't know if I'm right or wrong, but it helps me sleep (it helps me sleep) I've been waiting for the day when the cops don't shoot When they feel safe enough not wear them bulletproofs I don't know what's right or wrong, but I sure can sleep But why should I dwell on the things that I can't change? (Things that I can't change) What if I'm the answer for things that I've prayed? (Things that I've prayed) All I know is If nothing changes before I'm gone I got no else I can blame it on And we've been waiting way too long What if we're the ones that we're waiting on (What you waiting for) If nothing changes before I'm gone I got no one else I can blame it on And we've been waiting way too long What if we're the one that we're waiting on I might just have to be What I never had for me I might just have to be What I never had for me I might just have to be What I never had for me I might just have to be What I never had for me
