Wait for Me (feat. Lupe Fiasco) [10th Anniversary]

It's too—it's too late I hope it's not too late for me Could you just wait for me, a while Is it too late, too late? I hope it's not too late, too late I hope it's not too late for me Could you just wait for me, a while? Is it too late, too late? I hope it's not too late, too late, oh I hope it's not too late (Too late) I got my whole life packed inside a suitcase Riding in a Chevy that shoulda been a Mercedes Tryna keep my head above water, so I stayed out the Navy, I, I I made a promise to my girl (Girl) Said "I'ma leave town and bring back the whole world" (World) So I bought a ticket (Boy), took longer than expected Came back around like a necklace and the first thing she said was "It's too late" Like, "Nigga, I got needs, too I found a man who gave me what I need, now I don't need you I barely got a text, a call back You old lying ass nigga (Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah) You a dog, out here chasing paper Fucking bitches, nah (The hell you talking about now?) Nah, nigga, you too late (Fuck you, get out) Live with it, now you got a roommate" My homie served ten years; it's too late for him to be treated equally Too late for him to make it out the hood legally Riding around doing my thing (Thing) Is it too late to be tryna live dreams (Dreams) And turn them all real? Reality is just a technicality So is being fake, so don't tell me that I'm—that I'm too late I hope it's not too late for me (No) Could you just wait for me, a while Is it too late, too late? I hope it's not too late, too late I hope it's not too late for me Could you just wait for me, a while? Is it too late, too late? I hope it's not too late, too late, oh Too late, yeah Uh, alarm clock said I'm too late And they said I'm too weak, I could use a few weights So they said I took too long And don't look too strong, well, how long would you take? Waiting's got me here in the first place 'Nother second, I been second, maybe third in the worst case Now on display are my word plays Moving weight, eh, it's such a trap Move and wait; you can't do that I know I'm dope, man, but I can't move crack And it's such a fractured way of thinking 'bout your plans But I try and bring it back before your brain hit the pan Sean from Detroit, Lupe from Chicago-land But both of our chains say made in Japan German engineers designed both of the sedans Ride with Mr Right-On-Time or stay Ms Another Chance Man; redirected at the girls Not an ultimatum just an option in this world Where things come and go when the clocks never stop Be on time for nothing, a little late for a lot, huh I hope it's not too late for me (Yeah) Could you just wait for me, a while Is it too late, too late? I hope it's not too late, too late I hope it's not too late for me Could you just wait for me, a while? Is it too late, too late? I hope it's not too late, too late, oh I hope it's not too late I hope it's not too late The last thing I wanna hear is too late Yeah, yeah Tell me, is it too late for me to try and change the world?
