lyrics

Wait for the man to shake your hand
Wait for the time to approach then surely pass
Wait for the “I’ve been too clear” to disappear
Make me wonder
Wait for the sick to come and go
Wait for the cold just to blow, the evening snow
Wait for the face turn to back of head and slowly get smaller

And I’ve run around for my whole life
I’ve run around for my whole life
I’ve run around for my whole life

Wait for the bus to make a stop
Wait for the fads just to fall and slowly drop
Wait for the man in the hood to diss a cop
Makes me wonder
Wait for the nauseous feel to quit
Wait for the high taller man to take a hit
Wait for the kids stuck at war to have a spit
Hear the thunder

And I’ve run around for my whole life
I’ve run around for my whole life
I’ve run around for my whole life

And I’ve run around for my whole life
I’ve run around for my whole life
I’ve done a lot to take a stride
I’ve changed the dirt from deep inside
I’ve run around for my whole life
