Patience is the Virtue - Slaves

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 made mistakes, you made a judgement

Focus on a life with substance

I’m tired of waiting

I know I need to face it

I’m building, I’m zoning

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 everytime I slip goal, 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 bottom 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

No feeling dark, 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
