Zeke Manyika - I've Been Waitin' for Tomorrow (All of My Life) lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm hiding in the corner of an overgrown garden Covering my body in leaves and trying not to breathe All my childhood dreams are bursting at the seams And dangling around my knees I've been deformed by emotional scars And the cancer of love has eaten out my heart I've been stripped bare and nobody cares And all the people I looked up to are no longer there [Chorus] All desires have been denied To put me in this state of mind Another year over and what have I done? My aspirations have shriveled in the sun I'm crippled by guilt, blinded by science I've been waiting for tomorrow all of my life [Refrain] "This way, keep walking, keep talking." "This way, keep walking, keep talking." "This way, keep walking, keep talking." [Chorus] All desires have been denied To put me in this state of mind Another year over and what have I done? My aspirations have shriveled in the sun I'm crippled by guilt, blinded by science I've been waiting for tomorrow all of my life [Verse 2] I've been filled with useless information Spewed out by papers and radio stations I've been hounded by fair-weather friends Sowing the seeds for my discontent Life is like a sewer And I'm trying to wade through her I threw in my money and made my wish But sleeping boys catch no fish [Chorus] All desires have been denied To put me in this state of mind Another year over and what have I done? All my aspirations have shriveled in the sun I'm crippled by guilt, blinded by science I've been waiting for tomorrow all of my life [Refrain] "This way, keep walking, keep talking." "This way, keep walking, keep talking." "This way, keep walking, keep talking." [Outro] All my childhood dreams are dangling around my knees My mind has been polluted and my energy diluted My mind has been polluted and my energy diluted My mind has been polluted and my energy diluted My mind has been polluted and my energy diluted
