Her knees got dirty in the earth
Trying to show the world just how much she's worth
Looking for some daylight, creeping through the cracks
She's trying to grab a little bit of gold from where she's at
She shed her worry, with blood, sweat and tears
To live another day, fight another year
The cause was worthy, bigger than her name
Making sure the next generation's in the game
She's not gonna wait around for tomorrow
Eager for the grass to grow
Will it ever? She'll never know
She ain't got no time to waste, none to borrow
Still waiting on that grass to grow
He won't surrender, or take the fall
He knows it's not the time, time to drop the ball
Could it be that maybe, the worst is yet to come?
That the ship, bursting at the seams, will come undone
He fights his corner, but time will tell
Whether it's the change he wants that the future spells
The scars he carries, 'til the day he dies
Just go to show it goes way beyond the black and white
He's not gonna wait around for tomorrow
Eager for the grass to grow
Will it ever? He'll never know
He ain't got no time to waste, none to borrow
Still waiting on that grass to grow
Though the water is risin'
And the rain's falling down around us
Something's on the horizon
When we gonna understand?
Only time will tell
If the water is risin'
And the sky's really fallin' on our heads
Something's on the horizon
And the future's in our hands again
We're not gonna wait around for tomorrow
Eager for the grass to grow
Will it ever? We'll never know
We ain't got no time to waste, none to borrow
Still waiting on that grass to grow
We're not gonna wait around for tomorrow
Eager for the grass to grow
Will it ever? We'll never know
We ain't got no time to waste, none to borrow
Still waiting on that grass to grow
