“Waiting” is Tre’s way of showing his come up as a young rapper, dealing with the stress of having to succeed and the fake people that he attracts as a result.
[Pre-Hook]
I know they waiting
I know they waiting
I know they waiting
I know they waiting
[Hook]
I know they waiting on me
I know they can't wait to see a young nigga make it
I know they hatin' on me
As long as the family believe, that shit don't face me
I know they waiting on me
I know they can't wait to see a young nigga make it
I know they hatin' on me
As long as the family believe, that shit don't face me
[Verse 1]
Stay down, I was waitin' on the right time, oh
Pourin' up drink, come alive at the night time, yeah, yeah
I can't quit that shit for the week
No sleep that's what it's gon' be
Call a nigga, know it's goin', whole team got the heat
I done pay dudes, oh yeah
So we can't lose this year
Whole team need rings
Nigga paranoid everytime the phone ring
I had to switch it up, started doing new things
Nobody understand me, but they feel the same
Got me feeling crazy, like I'm insane
How I keep grinding with this on my brain?
How I keep grinding with this on my brain?
I had to hit the brakes on niggas
Now I can't break my breads, stop sharing my plates on niggas
Say a grace, my nigga
And now I gotta speak my mind, Stephen A. first take on niggas
A message to all that believed
You know I do it for we
Shouts out to all of the team
Shouts out to fans who be reppin' for me
This is destined to be
Can I see the [?] for the load up, it's you
I know who I am, nigga who the fuck are you?
Ridin' in a Mustang with no roof
Tre, some driving and I'm off the juice
Downtown lights that night, what a view
Whole life niggas lying, I'm the motherfuckin' truth
Never took a hand out, nigga I don't know you
Now they got their hands out, nigga I don't know you
[Pre-Hook]
I know they waiting
I know they waiting
I know they waiting
I know they waiting
[Hook]
I know they waiting on me
I know they can't wait to see a young nigga make it
I know they hatin' on me
As long as the family believe, that shit don't face me
I know they waiting on me
I know they can't wait to see a young nigga make it
I know they hatin' on me
As long as the family believe, that shit don't face me
[Verse 2]
All shade from the new niggas
All the women sending mixed signals
I never know what to do with 'em
Self centred, windows tannin'
Never let you see who is with me
Who are all the new bad boys?
And you can never tell who is [?]
Aw damn, it's a thin line
You know they all love to hate
You knew I would see the top
That shit was no debate
Ali, I'm a heavyweight
So I need to crip with the heaven gates
Playin' Ali at like 94'
'Cause we make the money go back to four, wait
How didn't you see? I'm who they wanted to be
I don't believe in the handout, my momma said nothing is free
My circle keep getting smaller, 'cause this what it had to be
And I let them switch up, tha'ts all I had to see
Now I'm going beast mode, like I got the cheat codes
Nobody can hold me, I ball like Ginobili
The spur of the moment, and I keep it going
It's different, I'm focused, man
Y'all switched sides, [?] we consistent
Learn how to stay out your feelings
We only missin' these millions, yeah
[Pre-Hook]
I know they waiting
I know they waiting
I know they waiting
I know they waiting
[Hook]
I know they waiting on me
I know they can't wait to see a young nigga make it
I know they hatin' on me
As long as the family believe, that shit don't face me
I know they waiting on me
I know they can't wait to see a young nigga make it
I know they hatin' on me
As long as the family believe, that shit don't face me
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah
Stay down, I was waitin' on the right time, oh
Pourin' up drink, come alive at the night time, yeah, yeah
I can't quit that shit for the week
No sleep that's what it's gon' be
Call a nigga, know it's goin', whole team got the heat
