(uh-huh) I've been grinding so long, been trying this shit for years
(uh-huh) and I got nothing to show, just climbing this rope right here
(uh-huh) and if there's a man upstairs, he kept bringing me rain
(uh-huh) but I've been sending up prayers and something's changed

I think I finally found my hallelujah
I've been waiting for this moment all my life
