Patience Is The Virtue

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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 fucking 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?

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
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
