And you, what are you waiting for

I’m waiting for a lightning strike

A shiver, a fire that flips my life

A breath, a spark, a sign so clear

A little rush, drawing near

And you—what are you waiting for?

I’m waiting to know where I belong

To be a little more real and strong

To let go of old shadows worn

False pride I’ve outgrown

And you—what are you waiting for?

We could all take flight

Catch our dreams with open hands

Break free from gilded cages tight

Find a joy that understands

We could all take flight

If you tell me you’ll come too

Then I’ll stop waiting—waiting for you

I’m waiting for the fear to fade

For time to slow its rushing wave

To live out loud, to live it true

And you—what are you waiting for?

I’m waiting to throw off the weight

All the burdens we’ve carried late

To find a spark of wild defiance

A touch of childhood’s defiance

And you—what are you waiting for?

We could all take flight

Catch our dreams with open hands

Break free from gilded cages tight

Find a joy that understands

We could all take flight

If you tell me you’ll come too

Then I’ll stop waiting—waiting for you
