Lyrics

[Verse 1: MC Abdul]
Under this bomb, only seconds 'til I'm under the rubble
Most kids grow up under the sun, is my life really done?
Flashbacks to my days in the struggle
My جدة told me there was beauty in this place that we from
Me and my cousin would run
Through the alley, kick the ball through the streets
Hide-and-seek from the F-16s, the space we've seen, with no exposure
But all that did was make us grow up faster and older
And as the times got colder, I lose myself in my hip-hip folder
When my pops played me Nas, Pac and Eminem
Rock bottom, we live in different predicaments
The world turns, and I'm rappin' in the moment, but it never ends

[Chorus: MC Abdul]
Unh, so wait for me, wait for me
I'm just asking, "Can you wait for me, wait for me?"
I'll be a minute but right now can you wait for me, wait for me?
Unh

[Verse 2: MC Abdul]
Unh, it's pain in the struggle
A shame you do not know the names in the rubble
It's faith and it's hustle, don't break in a tussle
Carrying all this weight, build muscle
But in my last moments, these last seconds of my life
No role models, cold world ain't give us rights
Apparently, we the ones that have to scream and fight
Colonizers with they crocodile tears right, unh
All I need is one mic, one mic
And I have more to give
I'm not a born sinner, I was born to live
Do the memories fade when my time ends?

[Chorus: MC Abdul]
Unh, so wait for me, wait for me
I'm just asking, "Can you wait for me, wait for me?"
I'll be a minute but right now can you wait for me, wait for me?
Unh

[Outro: Nai Barghouti]
