Lyrics

Yeah, I had to wait
Yeah, ayy
I had to, ayy, oh
I had to wait
Feel like a servant, the way I've been workin', I still gotta wait
Just like a kid who been promised a gift, they still gotta wait
Walking too heavy, the glory I carry, it came with a weight
Ayy, I had to, uh, I had to wait
Whole lotta folk wanna be where I'm at but don't know how to wait
Put in work year after year after year and I still had to wait
They probably eat before they say they grace, they don't know how to wait
I guess I’m cut from a whole different cloth, homie, I don't relate
I had to learn how to wait
I had to learn how to pray
So many things I went through in my life, but I came out okay
If they give' an award to who gon' stick it out, I’d be takin' the cake
Like we playin' chess, don't expect you a check, you was never a mate
Try to gyp me on the rate
Can't keep me down, I elevate
I know how to work while I wait
Still goin' up, no debate
I just started heatin' up
Take the shot like I’m Curry or something
I made it, now they can try to “D” me up
But I really ain't worried I'm covered
The work out, I done put in a lot of it
Blood, sweat, and tears got a pot of it
Whole lotta years I was locking in
God shifted the gears, ain't no stopping ‘em
Whole lotta times I was riding around with my tank on E
Kept tryna tell myself God had a plan for me
No doubt in my mind God had His hands on me
In order for me to see what the end's gonna be I had to
Wait
Feel like a servant, the way I've been workin', I still gotta wait
Just like a kid who been promised a gift, they still gotta wait
Walking too heavy, the glory I carry, it came with a weight
Ayy, I had to, uh, I had to….wait
Whole lotta folk wanna be where I'm at but don't know how to wait
Put in work year after year after year and I still had to wait
They probably eat before they say they grace, they don't know how to wait
I guess I’m cut from a whole different cloth, homie, I don't relate
