0:24Never done it the way I should
0:26So impatient, misunderstood
0:28I’ve always let a girl dictate my feelings, yeah
0:31Too distracted, too direct
0:33Too numb, so I neglect
0:36The things I should protect
0:38I’m ready for what is next
0:40I’ve made mistakes, you’ve made a judgment
0:44Focused on a life of substance
0:48I’m tired of waiting, I know I need to face it
0:52I’m building, I’m zoned in
0:55I'll never be complacent
0:57I’m on the way up, I need to be patient
1:02Patient like I’ve never been
1:06Nothing can hold me, I need to be patient
1:10Patient like I’ve never been
1:14They say hurry up and wait, haha
1:16Hurry up and wait, eyes on the gold
1:18And every time I see the gold, I froze
1:20Best cards in the ****ing deck, but I fold
1:22It's like I’m stuck in a place that I can’t call home
1:25And I ain't circling the block no more
1:31Why do I do this to myself over and over again?
1:39I’m on the way up, I need to be patient
1:44Patient like I’ve never been
1:47Nothing can hold me, I need to be patient
1:52Patient like I’ve never been
1:55I’m on the way up, I need to be patient
2:00Patient like I’ve never been
2:03Nothing can hold me, I need to be patient
2:08Patient like I’ve never been
2:12And I can almost touch the sky
2:17Keep my head down, it's my time
2:21Not feeling done asking why
2:25Keep my head down, it's my time
2:29I’m ready for what is next
2:40I’m on the way up, I need to be patient
2:45Patient like I’ve never been
2:48Nothing can hold me, I need to be patient
2:54Patient like I’ve never been
2:57I’m on the way up, I need to be patient
3:02Patient like I’ve never been
3:05Nothing can hold me, I need to be patient
3:10Patient like I’ve never been
