letra de waiting in the wings - tabi

oh i was born by orphans
knowing change from experience
and the drive when making up our minds
to stand up for my disability

i speak up so they understand
we won’t trade help to unburden
camp showed us a true society
who joined the fight for equality

where inclusion won’t depend on
if someone’s nice, right, or wrong
did they see us protest?
we’re “disabled in action”!
i can tell they look but won’t see
(they think it’s a problem with me)
did they judge by my talent?
or indulge in fear and ignorance?
and treat me less than a human being?
(is this whats our life’s meant to be?)
waiting in the wings

the folks with essential roles
from leaders to medical professionals
talked us down without hesitance
using safety as excuses

they tried to starve us ‘til we gave up
so we just called for backup
(looks like i had to back up!)

did they see us protest?
we’re “disabled in action”!
i can tell they look but won’t see
(they think it’s a problem with me)
did they judge by my talent?
or indulge in fear and ignorance?
and treat me less than a human being?
(is this whats our life’s meant to be?)
waiting in the wings
i did not tolerate
compromising games
teacher to my students
(and student to my friends who came)
and who come after me
as this fight’s still on
and now they’re praising my name
but that’s just talk
that’s just talk!
