Lyrics

Waves

[Intro]

Yeah, ayy

This shit deep, yeah

I thought I just get some shit off my chest, you know? (Ayy)

[Verse 1]

Ayy, I'm 'pposed to be the first one here to get it this way

Pops, he had his go, I plan to finish the race

A hundred miles an hour, need to slow up, for real

Mind be runnin' wild, I know that that shit kills

Fighting with my shawty like I'm playing it safe

'Cause nothin' last forever, I think it's easy that way

Goin' up to smoke with a familiar face

At times we only talk is when we blazin' the place

The truth is, I'm afraid it's me that's ruinin' us

Ain't used to sharin' wounds, I usually chill in the cut

Thinkin' to myself, I think I'm fillin' the void

Hard for me to think and plus, I'm hearin' the noise

The photos on the fridge remind the reasons I grind

The older that I get just shows I'm losin' the time

Oh, we runnin' low on fruit we can find (Yeah)

I guess I'm runnin' low on fruit I can find

[Chorus]

I've been praying (Yeah)

I've been waiting (I've been waiting, I've been waiting)

I done seen (I done seen, I done seen)

Changing faces (Changing faces, changing faces)

Nothing's playing up on my station (Nothing's playing, nothing's playing)

Just find a way (Just find a way, just find a way)

And I'm okay (And I'm okay, now I'm okay)

[Verse 2]

Yeah, who really tryin'? Who redefine what's really them?

Who shed the light? Who really shine? Who's really dim?

Who feel alive, then check inside and really grim?

Who's on the climb? Who's on the rise? Who's drownin' in

The false realities? And now it's televised

4K on the lens, most niggas realer than what's real outside (Mm)

I swear I need to energise

Most that shit around me I don't fraternise

Ain't worried about fitting in, no this ain't a difference

I put aside then look inside and recognise all the synonyms

Swayin' back and forth like the pendulum, I'm tryna find the medium

Eyes upon my future got my heart jumpin' like EDM

The odds is crucial, nigga, what I look like on the losin' end

I think I'm lookin' for somethin' that soothes him

Pray for what's ahead, I know there's light to be shed

Blessings just spread so I brace myself for every stare, yeah

[Chorus]

I've been praying (Yeah)

I've been waiting (I've been waiting, I've been waiting)

I done seen (I done seen, I done seen)

Changing faces (Changing faces, changing faces)

Nothing's playing up on my station (Nothing's playing, nothing's playing)

Just find a way (Just find a way, just find a way)

And I'm okay (And I'm okay, now I'm okay)

I've been praying (Yeah)

I've been waiting (I've been waiting, I've been waiting)

I done seen (I done seen, I done seen)

Changing faces (Changing faces, changing faces)

Nothing's playing up on my station (Nothing's playing, nothing's playing)

Just find a way (Just find a way, just find a way)

And I'm okay (And I'm okay, now I'm okay)
