THE WAITING (Radio Edit) Lyrics

I'll be patiently waiting

I'll be patiently waiting

I'll be patiently waiting

I've been waiting for something to happen

They tell me don't give up

It's only a work of art if you engage with it

So to you I don't exist

I never felt real bliss

Just a mist

Marks of the hands is all I have left

I've been staying up all night tryna catch my breath

Feelings God's breath beside me on my left

Guess I got more character this way

Building out of sight

Built to echo a renaissance of street talent

There was nothing here before

It was a swamp

Now it where i sing my ballads

Being eccentric gave me the chance to get out of the house

I am just a woman

But I carry the weight of five

How am I supposed to want to stay alive

With all this on my shoulders

Jesus can you move this boulder

How am I supposed to want to stay alive

With all this on my shoulders

Jesus can you move this boulder

I'll be patiently waiting

I'll be patiently waiting

I've been waiting for something to happen

They tell me don't give up

Welcome my love

Welcome to the machine

They already know where you've been

They see you when you feel unseen

So welcome my love

Welcome to the machine

What makes me valid

I need bodies to test the acoustics

This is my work of art

I am a work of art

I am a nuisance

I came in with this vision

And planned mission made my decision but it's useless

I can't be confined

I wanna see hundreds and thousands

I wanna just be

Dead men tell no tales

That's why I'm constantly

Searching for balance

Someone to lift my veil

Keep the stories told

So the truth can be revealed

When you enter the room all you see

Gold teeth

Gold rings

Gold Frames

Take what you will

With all this on my shoulders

Jesus can you move this boulder

How am I supposed to want to stay alive

With all that's on my shoulders

Jesus can you move this boulder

I've been waiting for something to happen

They tell me don't give up
