Bin Waiting
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All year long I've been on trial
for somethings I done.
And somethings I didn't do.
A lot of people they want to drag me down
to their hell.
I can't turn myself into you.
Why don't you finish what you start?
Are you waiting for a change of heart? ('cuz I've bin...)
I've bin waiting
People bin waiting
I've bin waiting
I've been waiting for a new state of mind. (I've bin...)
I've bin waiting
People bin waiting
I've bin waiting
I've been waiting for a new mankind.
We're living in a time, my man,
where you got to do what you can to be a better man,
than the ones that came before you.
War and bloodshed on my door
I've been scarred before, but
this is an open wound (I've bin...)
I've bin waiting
People bin waiting
I've bin waiting
I've been waiting for a new state of mind. (I've bin...)
I've bin waiting
People bin waiting
I've bin waiting
I've been waiting for a new mankind.
When I was young, I could just waste my time, charm and wine
and just spend another dime.
But I now I can't, so, mama, take my hand, I'm gonna be the man.
We'll see just what we find.
Why don't you finish what you start?
Why are you waiting for a change of heart?
I've bin waiting
People bin waiting
I've bin waiting
I've been waiting for a new state of mind. (I've bin...)
I've bin waiting
People bin waiting
I've bin waiting
I've been waiting for a new mankind.
