Patience

Can I be honest
I’ve been waiting in earnest
For my time to come
Feel like it’s taking forever
Like it’s already over
Before it’s even begun
I know it’s all about patience
I gotta keep waiting
But waiting ain’t fun
I wish things were certain
Like the rising and setting
Of the sun

You gotta have patience
You gotta have patience
In these situations
You gotta have patience

I don’t mean to complain
But sometimes the rain
Can make it hard to see
Always a penny too short
A second too late
I need a second to breathe
You say it’s all about patience
You gotta keep waiting
But the weight is heavy
Please don’t keep me waiting
Anticipating
If it won’t ever be

You gotta have patience
You gotta have patience
In these situations
You gotta have patience
You gotta wait for your time to come
