Locked iPhone for 8 hours

Hello, I recently cracked my screen and it has been acting up by entering password continuously. I am however blocked out of the phone for 8 hours but it has been more than 8 hours and nothing yet. Can you kindly help me with this?

iPhone Disabled,  Unavailable, Security Lockout

This may not work with a cracked screen anf you will have to get the screen fixed first,  

You can sometimes remedy this without a computer if on iOS 15.2 or later by tapping on "erase iPhone" at the bottom of the screen , but you will still need the Apple ID password. It will WIPE the phone, no choice!
