Patience Is the Virtue

Never done it the way I should

So impatient, misunderstood

I’ve always let a girl dictate my feelings, yeah

Too distracted, too direct

Too numb, so I neglect

The things I should protect

I’m ready for what is next

I’ve made mistakes, you’ve made a judgment

Focused on a life of substance

I’m tired of waiting, I know I need to face it

I’m building, I’m zoned in

I'll never be complacent

I’m on the way up, I need to be patient

Patient like I’ve never been

Nothing can hold me, I need to be patient

Patient like I’ve never been

They say hurry up and wait, haha

Hurry up and wait, eyes on the gold

And every time I see the gold, I froze

Best cards in the ****ing deck, but I fold

It's like I’m stuck in a place that I can’t call home

And I ain't circling the block no more

Why do I do this to myself over and over again?

I’m on the way up, I need to be patient

Patient like I’ve never been

Nothing can hold me, I need to be patient

Patient like I’ve never been

I’m on the way up, I need to be patient

Patient like I’ve never been

Nothing can hold me, I need to be patient

Patient like I’ve never been

And I can almost touch the sky

Keep my head down, it's my time

Not feeling done asking why

Keep my head down, it's my time

I’m ready for what is next

I’m on the way up, I need to be patient

Patient like I’ve never been

Nothing can hold me, I need to be patient

Patient like I’ve never been

I’m on the way up, I need to be patient

Patient like I’ve never been

Nothing can hold me, I need to be patient

Patient like I’ve never been
