I'd be Waiting
[Chorus:]
I'd be waiting
Waiting for a lifetime
I'm sure
I said I'd be waiting
Waiting for a lifetime
And more
If that serious alliance lies ahed
Let every necessary word be said
Remembering the blood that we've shed
Keep in mind that there are things we must forget
[Chorus]
Beware of tragedy left, right and center
Don't allow hell on earth to enter
Get rid of all the damage in your head
Remember there's an enemy in your head
[Chorus]
The joke's on me, for sure
But then wishes and hopes come true, for sure
It's you, for sure
Out of the blue, for sure
It's you, for you're past rich and poor
Towards that hard encore
[Chorus]
[Metaphysics:]
Ey yo, I've walked on the African sands like the Khoisan
The original man from land sacred
Battled Zulu tribes for the passion of word play and swam
Across the Zambezi butt naked
I've seen the sun rise in the east and set in the west
Plotted star charts and directions for God to manifest
From the peaks of pyramids I left tags in dark caves
Gave humanity clues on how to star gaze
Seen a snake shed its skin like the seasons and change
Seen world re-arrange in a flash; now for this cash
They rape Mother Africa for wealth
It's left me stranded in a spiritual realm all by myself
Headed to Mecca I stopped and spoke Swahili with tribes
Chanted native dialects over the hills, I felt vibes
Threw my hands to the sky then beat them hard on a drum
Over the horizon, I waited for freedom to come
But the ships just keep sailing, whips just keep cracking
Wonder where I'm lost so I begin backtracking
Through the Solomonic Dynasty, I read the Kebra
Took me swift across the planes like riding on a zebra
The Ashanti draped me in robes of royality
Shana Tribe blessed me with this lyrical ability
Purely infinite and there's just no debating
When I finally saw, all along who's been waiting
