I Wait (Loki Starfish Remix)

Can you see me
Way in the back here?
I've been waiting
I've been waiting in line

It's been a long time
Can't get no service
Still I'm hoping
I am hoping for a sign

That one day things will change
And we can finally take our place
That history won't forget us
Or try to minimize our pain

And so I wait
And so I wait

Did you know that
When I get angry
I breathe fire
I could burn this place down?

You may not realize
All of the small ways
I am not welcome
But just take a look around

Still everybody knows
That you need a place to go
And livin' isn't easy
If you incinerate your home

And so I stay
And so I stay

I may seem angry
So please forgive me
But I am still not free
In this society

How long must we keep fighting
For our right to be living?
Wrongs overdue for righting
We're a bit too forgiving

So when you hear them
Make claims of progress
Take a good look
And see who isn't there

We need a seat now
At the table
So please invite us
Or don't pretend to care
