Waiting to Exhale Lyrics

This is something I will never have
And this is where I stand
My hope's chosen the long way home
Yet my faith keeps urging me on
Belief and my reality is
Fading in front of me
Day or night it's every move I make
Searching for myself in this
Haunts every turn I take
And who I'll always be
This is who I'll always be

There's no one to a**ign it to, so it's all misused
These premonitions of a lost ambition
There's no one to appoint it for

These things don't come
Over night
Now I see the worlds
Wasted l*** to succeed
A frustrated heart
That will never seem at ease
With aspirations that might never
Find their peace
Endurance in my backbone
It's always so predictable
Growing until it's
All I know
Waiting on something to truly blow my mind
And when I get there I know that I will really feel alive
I'll feel alive

This endurance in
An earnest light
Seeking those
That are striving to see the same, thing
I need to pick myself back up again
But after all
I'll always be
So appalled
Discontent and unfulfilled
Is how this story unfolds
This is the only thing that really moves me
So fear will not slow me down

These things don't come
Over night
Now I see the worlds
Wasted l*** to succeed
A frustrated heart
That will never seem at ease
With aspirations that might
Never find their peace
