I'll Be Waiting
Full Intention Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yes, there comes a booming sound
It used to come from underground
Now it emanates from a kind of welfare state
Of the soul, yeah, baby of the soul

And of the sweet, sweet soul
Let's be certain of the deliberate monologue
As sure as if it will fall across you, unto you
Will most certainly leave the doing undone

Come on undone

And we are doing
And we are screwing up our lives today




What's that we chanted
It's this we planted c'mon progeny

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Full Intention's song "I'll Be Waiting" paint a picture of a society in turmoil. The first two lines, "Yes, there comes a booming sound, it used to come from underground" suggest that the source of the upheaval has changed, and is now coming from a different place. This is followed by "Now it emanates from a kind of welfare state of the soul," which implies that the source of the stress is internal and personal, rather than external. The term "welfare state" often refers to government policies designed to provide support to those in need, so the "welfare state of the soul" could suggest that individuals are struggling to find emotional and spiritual support within themselves.


The expression "of the soul, yeah, baby of the soul" is repeated a few times throughout the song, emphasizing the centrality of the soul in the lyrics. The second stanza suggests that the pain and confusion caused by the booming sound is causing us to speak recklessly and behave impulsively, leading us to "screw up our lives." The line "What's that we chanted, it's this we planted c'mon progeny" could be interpreted as an acknowledgement of our own responsibility for the predicament we find ourselves in; at the same time, the use of the word "progeny" suggests that there is still hope for the future, and that we have the power to make positive changes.


In conclusion, "I'll Be Waiting" is a thought-provoking song about a society in crisis. The lyrics suggest that the source of our problems lies within us, and that we must look to our own souls for answers. The song encourages introspection and reflection, as well as a sense of personal responsibility for the state of the world.


Line by Line Meaning

Yes, there comes a booming sound
Something significant is brewing


It used to come from underground
It was once hidden, not obvious


Now it emanates from a kind of welfare state
It now comes from a source of comfort or assistance


Of the soul, yeah, baby of the soul
It is a spiritual matter


And of the sweet, sweet soul
It's about the purity of the soul


Let's be certain of the deliberate monologue
We need to pay attention to the words spoken


As sure as if it will fall across you, unto you
It will happen to you for sure


Will most certainly leave the doing undone
It will stop you from achieving anything


Come on undone
You will fail


And we are doing
We are making progress


And we are screwing up our lives today
But we are ruining our future


What's that we chanted
What is the thing we keep saying


It's this we planted c'mon progeny
It is the cause of our problems that we are passing on to our children

brilliant ⭐️
Quiet times thoughts of you on my mind.
Feeling you, sweet like grapes on the vine.
Time moves on seems that grape has turned to wine
Tastes so sweet, love is bitter yet devine


I’ll be waiting when your heart decides to stay
I’ll be waiting when your love comes my way


I hear you say that you love me
I hear you say that you care
Can’t help but see you’re not with me
I reach for you and you're not there


I’ll be waiting when your heart decides to stay
I’ll be waiting when your love comes my way


Two arms to hold you
Two lips to kiss you
Don’t do me any good
All I do is miss you


I’ll be right here where I was when you left me
I’ll be right here where I am waiting
I’ll be right here since the day you left me
I’ll be right here where I am


I’ll be waiting when your heart decides to stay
I’ll be waiting when your love comes my way
