[Intro: Fashawn] x3 So good to have you back [Verse 1: Fashawn] While you was waiting in the wind, so was I Figured I'd leave you hanging, rather than tell a lie Cause that'd be lame; from complaining I had to refrain Debated never rapping again For a second thought Fash was the same, giving a f** Less about the flash of the fame The more I give, the more I gain The more I spill, the more I'm drained I had to make the streets wait even longer, change the release date Guess you can call it fashionably late,may my pa**ion never fades Managing this madness on my plate I couldn't have imagined having to start putting my foot in n***as' a**es We cook it and we give it to the ma**es, can't wait to download it, rip it out the plastic Cla**ic is what they get, palms itching till they get it in their grip Never waiting in vein, no, never waiting in vein, nah, never waiting in vein [Hook: Fashawn] Just a matter of time, before the game is mine Never waiting in vein, no, I know one day I'mma shine Just a matter of time, before the game is mine Never waiting in vein, no (x4) Never waiting in vein [Verse 2: Fashawn] Waited 25 years for this 15 minutes of fame Please don't tell me that I did it in vein Sorta over prepared 'fore I entered the game Before Twitter they would mention my name I was hitting on the bench, still Either to exhibit my pen sk**s, dream about landing a big deal I knew eventually it would come Matter of time till they see I'm the one What a masterpiece I've become, thought I was done? Darling I ain't even begun to do the damage that I plan to do Once I got my feet, the planet didn't plan to move Instead of wishing on a star, I followed my intuition and went hard Ended up ascending past Mars Succeeded without the marketer schemes, starving artist with his heart on his sleeve Saw it over and over in my mind, hungry for that moment to shine Never waiting in vein, no, never waiting in vein, nah, never waiting in vein [Hook]
