For This

作曲 : Gerald Gillum/Alexander John Chigbue

Yeah

Yeah

Ah

I waited all my life for this

They told me and I won't make it

We used to say yeah

We used to say

All my life for this

They told me I won't make it

But I made it

It's tough not to get anxious

Exercising my patience

I thought it never would happen

I swear I waited for ages

Had faith in the journey

I said let's see where it takes us

We want gratification

But see it happens in stages

With a team on my back

A couple times might have cracked

But never broke and I can hold them in fact

Man you know how much weight was on him

Must have came from within'

My lanky a** don't even go to the gym

And now I'm in

Just one but twenty mixtapes to my name

A lot of y'all would lose your appetites

With a this taste for the game

Lot of y'all would call it quits

Because you just chase for the fame

Tell my story to inspire you

Just in case you're the same

Self made

Now I employed ten of my friends

Tryna move moms out the honda

Tryna send her a benz

Appreciate it all because ain't no telling

When this sh*t ends

Unless this

Is all a dream and then it depends

I waited all my life for this

I waited

Yeah

They told me

That I won't make it

We used to say yeah

We used to say

All my life for this

They told me

I won't make it

But I made it

Listen

And all we ever wanted was chances

Dreams of life changing checks from

Label advances

Copping mansions

The kind of conversations m*******a enhances

Back then I let them know what my plans is

A poet in sixteen bar stanzas

Sixteen with dreams so far fetched

No one understands us

Playing shows in stadiums

Where everybody way up in the stands is

Standing on their feet

I paint the picture on canvas

That I seen in my dreams

In quick visions and glances

Woke up in nyc they don't think we're in kansas

Anymore

But sometimes it's hard to be sure

'Cause if I dreamed that it happened

Did it actually or

Am I just still asleep

And none of it's real

Wake up tomorrow right

Back in the struggle

Tryna come up and build

I don't know this sh*t gets deep

And ignorance is bliss

It's all I've ever loved

I waited my whole life for this

I waited all my life for this

I swear I waited so f**king long

They told me

And I won't make it

We used to say yeah

We used to say

All my life for this

They told me

I won't make it

Yeah

But I made it

Yeah

Reporting live from nyc

Two thousand and fifteen

And forever

Yeah

Uh

Yeah

I don't know this sh*t

Yeah

I waited all my life for this

They told me

And I won't make it

All my life for this

They told me

I won't make it

But I made it
