The Alchemist, Fashawn - Never Waiting in Vein lyrics

So good to have you back

While you was waiting in the wind, so was I
Figured I'd leave you hanging
Rather than tell a lie
Cause that'd be lame from complaining
I had to refrain debated never rapping again
For a second thought Fash was the same
Giving a fuck
Less about the flash of the fame
The more I give, the more I gain
The more I spill, the more I'm drained
I had to make the streets wait even longer
Change the release date
Guess you can call it fashionably late
May my passion never fades
Managing this madness on my plate
I couldn't have imagined having to start
Putting my foot in niggas' asses
We cook it and we give it to
The masses, can't wait to download it
Rip it out the plastic
Classic is what they get
Palms itching till they get it in their grip
Never waiting in vein, no, never
Waiting in vein, nah, never waiting in vein

Just a matter of time
Before the game is mine
Never waiting in vein, no
I know one day I'mma shine
Just a matter of time
Before the game is mine
Never waiting in vein, no
Never waiting in vein

Waited 25 years for this 15 minutes of fame
Please don't tell me that I did it in vein
Sorta over prepared 'fore I entered the game
Before Twitter they would mention my name
I was hitting on the bench, still
Either to exhibit my pen skills
Dream about landing a big deal
I knew eventually it would come
Matter of time till they see I'm the one
What a masterpiece I've become
Thought I was done?
Darling I ain't even begun to do the
Damage that I plan to do once I got my feet
The planet didn't plan to move
Instead of wishing on a star
I followed my intuition and went hard
Ended up ascending past Mars
Succeeded without the marketer schemes
Starving artist with his heart on his sleeve
Saw it over and over in my mind
Hungry for that moment to shine
Never waiting in vein, no, never
Waiting in vein, nah, never waiting in vein
