Waiting For
rum.gold Lyrics

I've been alone
I've spent time by myself

I've been a sinner and saint
I've experienced both good and bad in my life

I've been waiting for
I've been anticipating or hoping for

All the years of peace
A time of calm and serenity in my life

And I feel high
I feel euphoric or exhilarated

While I'm so fucking low
Despite feeling good, I also feel very bad

Take me out of this world
Remove me from reality or existence

And out of prying time
Away from the eyes of others and the constant flow of time

But don't feel bad
Don't pity me

I've served my time well spent
I've used my time wisely and productively

And I'd like to gift it
I want to give my knowledge or experiences to someone else

To the next doomed soul
To the next person who will experience both good and bad in their life

Cause what am I
What is my purpose or importance

Seriously waiting for
Truly longing or hoping for

A golden plaque with my name
Recognition or validation for my accomplishments

Who seriously cares
Who truly values or is interested in it

So take your time
Proceed at your own pace

Or speed it up a bit
Go faster if you desire

Doesn't matter
It's inconsequential either way

Time will leave you in its dust
Time will pass regardless of what you do and you cannot control it

So if you're low
If you're feeling down

Just know we're feeling high
Others may be feeling happy or euphoric, even if you're not

That's the way it works
It's just the nature of things

Inside our fucked up minds
Within the complexities of our own thoughts and emotions

Shake it off
Let go of your negative feelings

Or let it bury you whole
Allow your negative feelings to consume you completely

Strength of man is not measured
A person's worth is not solely determined by

By his muscles or gold
Their physical or financial assets

So if you want
If you desire

To stand the test of time
To make an impact that endures through time

Prepare your minds and souls
Mentally and emotionally ready yourself

What are you waiting for
Why are you hesitating or delaying

One, two, three, four
A countdown, readying oneself to take action

What are you waiting for
Why are you still delaying or hesitating

One, two, three, four
A final call to action

What are you waiting for
Why are you still hesitating
