Letra de Patience
As a kid, I was taught having patience is a virtue
But in waiting for the future, frustration could destroy you
Try to wait for your time, but you end up in a circle
But in waiting for the future, frustration could destroy you
Try to wait for your time, but you end up in a circle
Ain't it funny how a virtue could just turn around and hurt you?
Tryna wait for love to come, but the pain stay consistent
Like waiting for your gifts to have a disappointing Christmas
Like working ten years and ain't achieving nothing different
Like reaching for your goals, getting closer but you miss 'em
The point guard for the light stood at the podium
Preach about the future like we cruise in the DeLorean
Solace McFly, push the pedal for the sovereign
Fuel to raise off the aura to fill the auditorium
Was born a son of man, but Godly put the gift in hands
Geometrically, I'm turning diamonds out of pentagrams
Solace cool the atmosphere just like a global ceiling fan
Blossom like a daffodil, my pollen, it could heal a man
It get hard being patient when you tryna get it in (Yeah, yeah)
I got visions of my future, I been tryna get my wish (Yeah, yeah)
Had some things inside my life, I had to change, I made 'em flip (Yeah, yeah)
Now I'm waiting for my blessings, I been patient with the shits (Yeah, yeah)
It get hard being patient when you tryna get it in (Yeah, yeah)
I got visions of my future, I been tryna get my wish (Yeah, yeah)
Had some things inside my life, I had to change, I made 'em flip (Yeah, yeah)
Now I'm waiting for my blessings, I been patient with the shits (Yeah, yeah)
The winter took long as we waited for the summer
Tryna hold the times we love, and be scared of what's to come up
Keep the memories we want and forgettin' all the others
Gotta praise every part, like give some love to the drummer
It take time for the come-up
Being patient feel like waiting for the sun to break the thunder
It's the nine months of pain before a girl becomes a mother
It's the blood, sweat, and tears that it takes to make you bubble
Time moves slow when the worst's in your face
And it tend to speed up when the best take it's place
It's like days when I'm good always seem to slip away
Then the long nights come and I'm thinking 'bout the pain
I woke up real early on Capital STEEZ Day
Playing out the last time I saw him on replay
Remember telling him that things would be okay
He looked at me with a tear, like this shit won't change
I wish I knew the words that could've kept him on this Earth
But it's hard when you hiding your heart under your shirt
You supposed to wear it on your sleeve where everybody could see it
But I put mine in the dream when people 'round me need it
That's selfish, life is 'bout growing as a collective
But we live inside our shells, and honestly, I respect it
If you don't protect your neck, these niggas snatchin' your necklace
And you know you need your jewels, or they overthrow you from rule
It get hard being patient when you tryna get it in (Yeah, yeah)
I got visions of my future, I been tryna get my wish (Yeah, yeah)
Had some things inside my life, I had to change, I made 'em flip (Yeah, yeah)
Now I'm waiting for my blessings, I been patient with the shits (Yeah, yeah)
It get hard being patient when you tryna get it in (Yeah, yeah)
I got visions of my future, I been tryna get my wish (Yeah, yeah)
Had some things inside my life, I had to change, I made 'em flip (Yeah, yeah)
Now I'm waiting for my blessings, I been patient with the shits (Yeah, yeah)
I waited for the plants to grow strong, kept believing
Put the seeds into the ground and hope we had a rain season
I been sittin' on the porch every morning to the evening
It get hard being patient, I been running out of reasons
Thought I followed all the steps and read all the right things
But I learned everything we can't control, like when it rains
Or when a loved one is late, or the time of the day
Or the way that people treat you, know that you are not to blame
Tryna wait for love to come, but the pain stay consistent
Like waiting for your gifts to have a disappointing Christmas
Like working ten years and ain't achieving nothing different
Like reaching for your goals, getting closer but you miss 'em
The point guard for the light stood at the podium
Preach about the future like we cruise in the DeLorean
Solace McFly, push the pedal for the sovereign

I got visions of my future, I been tryna get my wish (Yeah, yeah)
Had some things inside my life, I had to change, I made 'em flip (Yeah, yeah)
Now I'm waiting for my blessings, I been patient with the shits (Yeah, yeah)
It get hard being patient when you tryna get it in (Yeah, yeah)
