Don't Wait
Mapei feat. Chance The Rapper Lyrics

A friend indeed, come build me up
I need a true friend, someone to uplift me

Come shed your light, it makes me shine
Your presence and positivity brightens my life

You get the message, don't you ever forget it
You understand the importance of our relationship, never forget it

Let's laugh and cry until we die
Let's experience all the emotions together, until the end

If it wasn't for you I'd be alone
I would have no one without you

If it wasn't for you I'd be on my own
I would have to face everything by myself without you

Don't wait 'til I do wrong
Don't wait for me to mess up before appreciating me

Don't wait 'til I put up a fight
Don't wait for me to argue or struggle before recognizing my worth

You won my heart without a question
You earned my trust and affection effortlessly

Don't wait for life
Don't wait for anything in life to appreciate our friendship

I'll hug you when I see you like you're leaving for a trip
I will embrace you tightly every time I see you, as if it's the last time

I fuck you when I need to, I just need you for a bit
I may use you for physical pleasure, but I value your presence and support

I've been fiending for a hit
I have been craving your love and affection

Got my guards down in God's garden, Eve and Adam eatin' all of it
I am vulnerable and open in this world, without any protection

Before I left and I was leaving
Before I departed, when I was on my way out

Took a bite and it was sweeter than a bitch, now I'm bitter
I had a taste of something wonderful, but now feel resentful and disappointed

I'm only back for funerals, we should throw a wedding
I only return home for sad occasions, but we should celebrate a happy one

I'm only packing fewer clothes, I forgot forgetting
I am not bringing many belongings, because I am trying to forget

I just gave a fuck for nothing, got it. Good. Forgiven
I cared for something that did not deserve it, but I have forgiven myself

I be getting got, but begotten sons is setting
I may be taken advantage of, but I am still moving forward

And if I said it then I meant it, for a minute, least a moment
If I said something, I was sincere, even if it was only for a short time

I could wait for Easter just to know if it's an omen
I am willing to wait a long time to know if something is a sign from the universe

And if it is then I'm setting up shop
If it is a sign, I will take action and make it happen

I appreciate your value, I just let it up stock
I recognize your worth, but have not invested enough in our friendship

Don't wait for love
Don't wait for love to show appreciation or value someone

Not a thing in the world could get between what we share
There is nothing that can come between our friendship

No matter where you at, no worry I'll be there
No matter where you are, I will always support and be there for you

No one's got your back like I do
There is no one else who supports and has your best interest like I do

Even when the business ain't going well, we still cool
Even when things are tough, our friendship remains strong

When I shine, you shine, always on your side
We celebrate each other's successes and always have each other's backs

All my life you'll have what's mine
Throughout my life, I will share everything I have with you

Mark my word, we gon' be alright
Trust me, we will overcome any obstacles and be okay

My brother, my sister we gon' be just fine
We are more than friends, we are family and will always be okay
