| 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
|

|
| 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
|
