[Chorus] I've been lonely I've been waiting for you I'm pretending And thats all I can do The love I'm sending ain't making it through to your hear I shed tears cause im told that they'll heal You tell the truth I don't know how to feel Never felt alone in a room full of friends Got big plans but you leave em in suspense Pray for me, patience wait for me Pay dues, trust me they ain't comin Way back it was hoops, now its maybach coups And we all took a vow, no squares in the loops Now we lookin at each other, sittin in a court room I'm laughin, cause its lookin like a cartoon Never snitch, got it tattooed by kartoo? (somebody switch) by my rules we all lose [Chorus] You've been hiding, never letting it show Always trying, to keep it under control You got it down, and your well on your way to the top But there is something you forgot Flippin through magazines, ridiculed for my life But they keep takin pictures of my j**ells in the light 100g's in the night, entertainin big timers 'Cause my 1 liners rude like don imus Smellin ros on my breath, ex ? fell asleep in his bed Habits we developed livin lavish stackin mail up Clothes come from big n tall ? Got live life, tryna live life Penthouse for a pimp, only drove the benz twice Convertible to the cars, cause I murdered all of ours Get 50 collect calls from dawgs behind bars [Chorus] You've been hiding, never letting it show Always trying To keep it under control You got it down And your well on your way to the top (trilllllaaaaaaaaaa..ross) But theres something you forgot Fortune n fame are pleasures you couldn't fathem But fortunately for me my fortune built me a palace Benjamins by the pallet, im spendin em mighty daily I know I'm under sureveillance ( I look at it as a talent) Millions a gotta manage, lil talents up in the rappin Im such a threat to these n*ggaz (you never know what could happen) I started without a coin, not knowin which way im goin Now im chowderin ?, n readin em a few poems Weathered all of the storms, now its time to see the light I never felt this way bout anythin in my life Determined to be the best, not lookin back at regrets How many people you blessed is how you measure success [Chorus] I've been lonely I've been waiting for you I'm pretending, and that's all I can do The love I'm sending ain't making it through to your heart
