Waiting Up
Drake & 2 chainz Lyrics

I know there's other people that you talk to
I'm aware that you communicate with other individuals.

But I just hate getting any proof shown to me (shown to me)
However, I dislike being confronted with evidence of it.

I know there's other places that you could go
I understand that there are other locations you could choose.

But I'd just really love it if you made it home to me (home to me)
But I would greatly appreciate it if you decided to come to my place.

Yeah, young girl, you love life
Hey, young lady, you enjoy living your life.

Same birthday as Pac, thug life
We share the same birthdate as Tupac, representing a rebellious lifestyle.

Gemini, I understand why ya uptight
Being a Gemini, I comprehend why you are often anxious.

Cause once you give away the pussy, then you're fucked right?
Because once you engage in sexual activity, you may encounter undesirable consequences.

Yeah, I wonder if I should call you
I contemplate whether I should reach out to you.

But then again you never call me
But again, you never initiate contact with me.

And I'm just looking at my phone girl
I'm simply staring at my phone, girl.

And the last 3 messages are all me
I notice that the previous three messages are all from me.

Damn, that's doing a lot
Wow, that's quite excessive.

I mean I've always been the type to know when to stop
I generally possess the ability to recognize when to cease.

For real, I mean I want you in the worst way
Seriously, I desire you intensely.

And I know one day doesn't mean the first day
Yet, I understand that a single day does not signify the initial day.

Yeah and it ain't morning but it's late enough
Although it may not be morning, it is sufficiently late.

And I just showered I just shaved, I just straightened up
I recently showered, shaved, and tidied myself up.

And I'm tired of the games, we done played enough
I am weary of the games we have played for too long.

I hope you're still coming cause I'm waiting up
I hope you still plan to come because I am staying awake, anticipating your arrival.

All the missed calls got me thinking
The numerous unanswered calls made me contemplate.

Maybe I'm trippin'
Perhaps I am overthinking.

But I want you to feel the other side (other side)
Yet, I desire for you to understand my perspective.

Now I'm waiting up (got you waiting)
Currently, I am staying awake (causing you to wait).

Now I'm waiting up (ooh, got you waiting)
Now I am staying awake (oh, making you wait).

Now I'm waiting up
Now I am staying awake.

Now I'm waiting up, waiting up, up, up
Now I am staying awake, remaining patient.

Voicemail when I call ya phone
When I dial your phone number, it goes straight to voicemail.

I know just how you feel
I comprehend your emotional state.

Baby when you home alone
Darling, when you are alone at home.

I know just how you feel (do you know?)
I can relate to your emotions (do you understand?).

I know just how you feel
I completely understand your feelings.

Girl now I'm waiting up
Now, girl, I am staying awake.

Now the shoe is on the other foot
Now the situation is reversed.

I'm here with my daughter she keeps staring like her mother look
I am with my daughter, and she keeps looking at me, resembling her mother.

And the hours keeps passing and I'm thinking about spazzing
As the hours go by, I am considering getting angry or losing control.

Couldn't even imagine, her catching up with her passed friend
I cannot bear the thought of her reuniting with her former friend.

Saying how was and he asking, a has-been
Reliving the past and inquiring about a person who is no longer relevant.

Has been shady, then she telling her she hate me
He has been deceitful, and then she expresses her hatred towards me.

And she been would've left if it wasn't for the baby
She would have already left if it weren't for the baby.

I know it sound crazy, that wasn't the plan
I understand it sounds irrational, as it was not the intended outcome.

You see I'm just a young boy, that's raising a man
You see, I am merely a young individual nurturing a younger person.

Listen look I'm really sorry for raising my hand
Listen, I sincerely apologize for resorting to physical violence.

All the false allegations, I'm taking a stand
I am refusing to accept the false accusations made against me.

Damn, damn, how did we get here?
Wow, how did our relationship end up in this state?

Girl, its feeling like the end isn't near
It seems like our relationship is on the verge of ending.

You say you don't care
You claim not to care.

I just hope its out of anger
I can only hope that it is driven by anger.

Good girl gone bad, I can't blame ya
A once virtuous girl turning rebellious, I cannot fault you entirely.

Signs read danger (I open my eyes)
The signs indicate a hazardous situation (I become aware).

Girl, you saying that you pregnant, I'm hoping it's lies
You claim to be pregnant, and I desperately wish it is not true.

While they all sound true, it's sad girl, the things that I do
Although they appear credible, it is disheartening, the actions I have taken.

They all affect you
All of them have an impact on you.

Like they don't affect me
As if they do not have an influence on me.

Girl, I'm mad cause the things you can't see
I am angry because you are unaware of certain circumstances.

It's what it's gon' be
This is how it will unfold.

I'm making a change
I am determined to make a transformation.

The best thing we ever had, we take it in vain
We are treating the best thing we ever had as if it is insignificant.

Now I'm waiting up (got you waiting)
Now I am staying awake (making you wait).

Now I'm waiting up (ooh, got you waiting)
Now I am staying awake (ooh, causing you to wait).

Now I'm waiting up
Now I am staying awake.

Now I'm waiting up, waiting up, up, up
Now I am staying awake, remaining patient.
