Lyrics

This is what you've been waiting for This is what you've been waiting for This is what you've been waiting for This is what you've been waiting for

This what you came for Are you not entertained? This is what you're waiting for We center stage Ain't no better time than now Ready your fists going down Countdown to the rest of your life Showtime, baby turn on the lights Gold status greatest of all time Look at me shine Yeh yeh yeh I got what they looking for every time You've been patiently waiting Anticipating but you aint waiting no more Cause i'm in the building The building is building, I got what you've been waiting for, yeah

This is what you've been waiting for This is what you've been waiting for This is what you've been waiting for Look at me now, I'm the talk of this town Yeah, it's going down This is what you've been waiting for Look at me now, Yea it ain't no doubt It's going down This is what you've been waiting for Yeah, it ain't no doubt This is what you've been waiting for It's going down This is what you've been waiting for

About the song

The chorus arrives loud, the production stays out of the way, and the song does its job: it makes the on-screen moment feel bigger than it already is.

Where you heard it

NBC's Chelsea-Arsenal promo. The song fits because of its arena-ready chorus that maps onto Premier League broadcast aesthetics.
