[Intro: Amber Simone]
If the world was ending
You would try to take me for my last breath
Holding out a gun up to my forehead
Drown me out so you can stay afloat instead
I can't wait for you, for you
I won't wait for you
I will pray for you

[Bridge: Josh Cortes & Tems]
Please don’t tell to me you didn’t wait
(Higher, say It' higher-er-er-er)
If you was with him before, it’s ok
I forgive, but it’s not ok
(ATL Jacob, ATL Jacob)

[Verse 1: Josh Cortes]
You praying on my demons, girl, I got you
And on this song, I know it’s calm but it’s vulnerable
Sounds of a heart, crying trying to stay calm
But understand It’s hard to face what life is throwing
Sometimes you stay and play kid but forget you grown
I still hear your tears when they dropped over the phone
Get mad at yourself 'cause you couldn’t leave her alone
Worship what could have been, stop, what you doing?
Yeah
[Chorus: Josh Cortes & Tems & Chris Echols]
(World was ending) traveling around the world (would you cry, or would you try to get me?)
Over the phone, dropping tears (Tell me now, I want you to be clear, yeah)
I get more vulnerable, it gets real (Tell me now, I need you to be clear, yeah)
I’m just telling you exactly how I feel (I will wait for you, for you)
The only one to keep it this real, yeah (I will wait for you; I will wait for you)
I’m a real one, tell you exactly what it is, yeah (I will wait, will wait, for you, for you)
Can’t say it 'and that's what I wanna hear, yeah, (I will wait for you; I will wait for you)

[Verse 2: Josh Cortes & Tems]
Yeah, I know it was hard for you
I wonder what it took and how you were feeling
I got a past that caused me to hurt some women
But it’s the same one why I love them for a living (will wait for you, for you)
Left me on the line, feelings flowing like a river (I will wait for you)
Does It matter who gets hurt in the picture? well that figures
You were pointing the finger, (I will wait for you)
Ain’t know that you was a killer
The message you delivered, (I will wait for, wait for you)
Had me crying to my sister (for you)
Why did you bring us closer if you knew that you was with him? (I will wait for you)
Guess I’m not in the plan, y’all been fucking for a minute (I will wait for you)
Cut right in the back, but I used to make us dinner
Girl, am I even an ex? or just another fella?
When I was fucking with you, I admit, the light was a bit dimmer
Yours got brighter after you met me and that ain't coincidental
Tried to bring the best out you, guess I'm not that influential
I guess I wasn’t meant for you
[Bridge: Josh Cortes & Tems]
Still hear them tears when they dropped over the phone
Get mad at myself 'cause I couldn’t leave you alone
Now this music thing is only what we doing, yeah

[Chorus: Josh Cortes & Tems & Chris Echols]
(World was ending) traveling around the world (would you cry, or would you try to get me?)
Over the phone, dropping tears (Tell me now, I want you to be clear, yeah)
I get more vulnerable, it gets real (Tell me now, I need you to be clear, yeah)
I’m just telling you exactly how I feel (I will wait for you, for you)
The only one to keep it this real, yeah (I will wait for you; I will wait for you)
I’m a real one, tell you exactly what it is, yeah (I will wait, will wait, for you, for you)
Can’t say it 'and that's what I wanna hear, yeah, (I will wait for you)
I will wait for you (I will wait for you)

[Outro: Tems]
I will wait for you, for you
I will wait for you; I will wait for you
I will wait, will wait, for you, for you
I will wait for you
I will wait for you
