All year long, I been on trial
For some things I done
And some things I didn't do
A lot of people, they wanna drag me down
Into their Hell
I can't turn myself into you
Pre-Chorus:
Why don't you finish what you start?
(What you start, what you start, what you start, waa-
ooh)
Were you waitin' for a change of heart?
'Cause I bin...
Chorus:
I bin waitin' (People bin waitin')
I bin waitin' (I bin waitin' for a new state of
mind...)
I bin... (I bin waitin')
People bin... (People bin waitin')
I bin waitin'... (I bin waitin' for a new mankind...)
We're livin' in a time where man
Where you gotta do what you can to be better than
The one that came before you
War and bloodshed's on my door
I been scarred before, but
This is an open wound
Chorus
Instrumental Interlude
When I was young, I could just waste my time
And charm wine
And just spend another dime
But now I can't, so mamma
Come take my hand,I'mm gonna be a man
We'll see just what we find
Pre-Chorus
