Patience lyrics

[Intro: Joyce Meyer]

"Patience is not simply the ability to wait

It's how we behave while we're waiting."

[Verse 1: Big Sean]

Patience

Patience is the ability to accept trouble, suffering, delay

Without getting angry or upset

I feel like if you could master patience, you could master anything

To sit and plan out your goals & dreams, strategize

Understand how the universe works

How things manifest

The time it takes is part of your own learning process

It's hard to realize this when things aren't coming fast enough

Whether it's a check, a job, a loan, a dream, a goal -

It all takes patience

[Interlude]

I'm so happy dog, no matter what, no matter what's going on [Yeah]

To be in L.A., to look out that window and see that view

[Verse 2: Big Sean]

Always remember, with the proper attention, from the highest place

The purest place, the highest vibration, you'll always get what you want

There's no point in rushing

If you rush too much, you might not get where you going

Usually when you rushing, you stressing

It can effect the quality of any and everything you doing

You might have a thousand strikes before you hit a homerun

To see the bottom means that the top is just as real

And just as obtainable

I realize patience is key for happiness

It allows you to be happier

To always see the bigger picture in everything

I feel like wisdom is priceless

And patience is a major part of that

There are certain things you can control

Some you can't

When you approach a situation with patience

You bring your best self to that situation

Giving yourself the best chance at success

At whatever is at hand

I learn there are lessons in patience

It could teach us a lot of things

I could give you a hundred stories

About how I wish I could go back in time to talk to myself -

Tell me to calm down, relax, don't let this throw you off

When I graduated highschool I decided to focus on music

It was one of the hardest things to watch all my homies at school

Especially the schools I could have went to

I felt like everyone around me was progressing

And I was at a standstill

Man I was doing a lot of reading

I realize you have to recognize your own process

And it can't be measured by anything but happiness

Just remember your journey is the most important part of the story

Not the trophy

The time I spent frustrated, depressed

Afraid of what might happen or not happen

Was the worst things I ever went through

Worst feelings I ever felt

I didn't get anywhere thinking, feeling like that

It was when I came out of that way of thinking that it all started turning around

I realized that a man who masters patience is a master of everything else

To make it to the top of your game

It takes patience
