Artist: Talib Kweli f/ Outasight Album: Gutter Rainbows Song: Ain't Waiting Typed by: OHHLA Webmaster DJ Flash [Talib Kweli] + (Outasight) Once upon a time in a land far far away I tried to play but my heart in the way This part a little harder to say It's like the white girl trapped in a well Help is comin but it's scary as hell But very well here went the fairy tale Now Cinderella want a fella who is not so ghetto So she follow bread crumbs like Hansel & Gretel Hello - that'll make her drop her underwear Dough longer than Rapunzel hair Everyone one stare when she walk in she like (what you want?) Yo I'm not gonna front, I'll be blunt I'll make that ass bump, I know that's (what they want) Me too with my hands up She turned around like man up, I'm like (here I am) But I know her from work, she pass by like he ain't that fly you got (one more chance) to fall down the rabbit hole Let me take you Wonderland or I'm makin some other plans [Chorus 2X: Outasight] I don't wanna spend the night Tryin to figure out how to spend my life I don't wanna spend my time waiting for you, waiting for you [Interlude One: Outasight] + (Talib) (Everybody say) oh, oh, oh oh oh Oh, oh, oh oh oh Oh, oh, oh ohhhh Waiting for you, waiting for you (Hey, everybody in the house) (C'mon, you know it well, what I'm talkin about) (Now say) oh, oh, oh oh oh Oh, oh, oh oh oh Oh, oh, oh ohhhh Waiting for you, waiting for you [Talib Kweli] + (Outasight) I made you a star, your light was shinin and so bright So right that it dwarfed the chicks like Snow White So nice got down with the team and now you one of us Got me singing like Prince, "You sexy motherfuh.." You could be my +Princess Bride+ call you my +Buttercup+ I love when you lettin me be the man Let me take you by the hand like Wendy in Peter Pan If you fly by night, that's right, I'll let you make a wish Eat you up like a favorite dish Man I pray you not the Wicked Witch (made it through) A situation where I broke my promise But now I'm tryin to be honest love (so can you) Sometimes people evolve But that involves knowin exactly (what you want) And right now I want a compromise By givin your partner (what they want) My life is an open boo You had a chapter but will it end happily ever after? [Chorus] [Interlude Two: Outasight] + (Talib) (Here we go yeah, ay, ay) (Ay that's what I'm talkin about, I put it down like) (Woo, get your hands up, yeah) (Everybody in the house say it, say it) oh, oh, oh oh oh Oh, oh, oh oh oh Oh, oh, oh ohhhh Waiting for you, waiting for you (Yeah, everybody, ah everybody) (Now everybody say, c'mon) oh, oh, oh oh oh (Say it with me) oh, oh, oh oh oh (Say it with me) oh, oh, oh ohhhh Waiting for you, waiting for you (Hey, everybody in the house) [Talib Kweli] + (Outasight) Life ain't a fairy tale Now they say sister's bitter and the Brothers is Grimm Time to let the story end and let another begin I spun straw into gold like Rumpelstiltskin Still a whole in my soul that love won't fill in She Sleeping Beauty cause her eyes was closed Tried to sleep on your boy like Brian Rose Now she wild like the coke in your nose And I'm lyin like Pinocchio Gotta know when it's time to go Gotta know when it's (here we are) We had some good times Had some Little Red Riding Hood times but (once again) I'm the Big Bad Wolf Don't hit me with the sad look love (here I am) I'm still the same old me But I don't know if we should give it (one more chance) To add another chapter Life ain't always happily ever after [Chorus] + ad libs
