Waiting

You can't imagine how long we been waiting on God

Hoping one day, He will answer our call

Get our problems resolved, even though His job

Is to govern the planets, the sun, moon, and stars

I pray that He takes the time out to govern ours

Put an ending to hatred, and change racists laws

Face it y'all, God has His hands full enough

What makes you think, He has time to deal with us?

When it's tough we send prayers up, hoping to hear answers

Resurrect my child, cure my father of cancer

Cause I can't, and I know You got the power to

You the all powerful, ain't nobody doubting You

We're proud of You, for taking us this far

And not hitting our earth with a gigantic star

And ending it all, for everything breathing

I know we wait our whole life, to meet You for a reason

I'm sorry but them words you sing will never bring my cousin back

Followed from the ATM, exchangeable for his cash

Attended university, he wasn't even on that path

Cops think he's just a nigga so they treat him just like he's a stat

Them weapons be irreverent, shots dismembering your residence

Know them floppy heads trying to reestablish precedence

Precious pessimistic, these conniptions full of decadence

Ain't nobody snitching even if we get the evidence

Hey you're broken hearted. I ain't got the answers for you

This world is full of evil. I ain't saying to ignore it

But I know my God is good, in this moment you can't see it

But this life we live's a gift down to every breath we're breathing

As you're weaving through the seasons, let Him show you what He's meaning

Through the pain He's never leaving, bottles empty til you're weeping

Bringing blessings to your being, don't be fleeing from His freedom

All the strongholds be defeated. He's the beacon that you seeking
