Waitin’ On A Good Time

From the beginning it was ambition

Straight out the ghetto but he had vision

When he was broke it was a bad feeling

Went with his mom to see his dad in prison

Trying to survive the rough times and the bad living

He felt impatient trying to wait in line

But his granny was a warrior, the praying kind

See he was chosen to be great, levitate and shine

Sent him to school to get the tools to liberate his mind

But in the hood you can't exaggerate

You learn the streets before you graduate

And they keep adding to the murder rate

But he was taught to always keep the faith

Believe in God to make the crooked straight

But he was tempted to go cook the yay

Cause when you starving it'll make you put your books away

And now he thinking how to make a play

But he remembered when his pop got took away

He was determined to not go astray

Born in a city full of attitude

He from the trap but he got gratitude

And it was hard to gauge his latitude

But his resilience in a major league

That's how he took the game from A to Z

He started sensing he was made to lead

He overcame the doubt of thinking he was made to bleed

Knew he would win if he was willing to just pay the fee

To be a boss, through the cost and always maintain

Had to travel through a loss just to win the game

Could see the rain pouring down by his window pane

And he knew the sun would surely shine, feel it in his veins

He kept an everyday ethic just to get ahead

Hustle mode around the clock, never in the bed

Still could hear his granny talking, speaking in his ear

Like an angel on his shoulder that don't disappear

Like a dream came true cause he had no fear

When he made it through the storm he had to shed a tear

He was waiting on the good time (Good time, good time)

They got me waiting on the good time (Good time, good time)

He was waiting on the good time (Good time, good time)

They got me waiting on the good time (Good time, good time)

When much is given, much required too

That's when the streets'll really try you

Gotta stay watching who beside you

And peep your girl cause she possibly could lie to you

And watch your plugs cause they scamming while supplying you

The one who loyal, they gon' ride for you

You know your truest on go and they would die for you

But he not thinking 'bout a stressed life

He kicking back, laying low on his best life

Reminiscing 'bout the hunger pains

Seeing visions of a life when there's no longer pain

During the time when he could barely cope

He still believe a rainbow symbolizes hope

He felt impatient , trying to wait in line

But his granny was a warrior, the praying kind

And he was taught to always keep the faith

Believe in God to make the crooked straight

When he was thinking how to make a play

But he remembered when his pop-got took away

He was waiting on the good time (Good time, good time)

They got me waiting on the good time (Good time, good time)

He was waiting on the good time (Good time, good time)

They got me waiting on the good time (Good time, good time)

(Good time, he was waiting on the good time)

(Good time, he was waiting on the good time)

Then he made it to the good time (Good time, good time)

Yeah, he made it to the good time (Good time, good time)

Then he made it to the good time (Good time, good time)

Yeah, he made it to the good time (Good time, good time)

On the good time
