Patience
[Verse 1]
Started treating weed like a medicine
Can’t be disrupted when I’m in my element
Very few niggas that I’m not better than
That’s that narcissism ready to settle in
Now that success is knocking at my door
I fear the repercussions it might have on all my folks
I used to dream of the day when everybody would see me
Ironic enough but fame is not like you see on TV
Nobody really know me but my girl or my mama
And it’s better that way, keep my name out your drama
I don’t want to feel like I’m giving too much away
Privacy is a luxury in the presеnt day
I just want to be happy, easier said than donе
Make the most out of life, you don’t get another one
Fuck her so good might make her little one
Fuck ‘till I turn that ass into cinnabuns
For now it’s Pogo, Pizza Pockets on the dinner plate still
Drink a lot of water trying to meditate still
People from back home call me a renegade still
I ran away for the better...yeah!
[Chorus]
Every time I think of joy, I lose a little
Trying to fill the void with substances
Not gonna lie, the wait is unbearable
Somebody told me patience, it all gon pay
I think of joy and I lose a little
Trying to fill the void with substances
Not gonna lie, the wait is unbearable
Somebody told me patience, yeah
[Verse 2]
Remember the days 10.25 an hour
Never forget when we made 10/h
I wonder what’s gonna happen with money, fame and power
I can already feel myself turning cold and sour
Never had it tough, I’m well aware of that
I’ll never have enough; yeah I’m aware of that
If I keep chasing happiness, I’ll never find it
I think it’s just a matter of where your head is at
Niggas not worried about my sanity
But I know my ego is my worst enemy
It took me time to realize nobody knows what they’re doing
I really thought there was a recipe
I look at you and you look like you got it figured out
I look around me, nobody look like they live in doubt
But everything changes when niggas open up
It can get rough sometimes...yeah!
[Chorus]
Every time I think of joy, I lose a little
Trying to fill the void with substances
Not gonna lie, the wait is unbearable
Somebody told me patience, it all gon pay
I think of joy and I lose a little
Trying to fill the void with substances
Not gonna lie, the wait is unbearable
Somebody told me patience, yeah
[Verse 3]
Took a little while, now I learnt my lesson
Fucked without a rubber, Oooh she had me stressing
Use to hold a 45 that was part of my dressing
You come to my hood better know to check in
I remember when she wouldn’t even give it over
Now I clap my hand and she running over
Singing like a bird now I got them guessing
Jesus you the angel
Better count my blessings
