Patience
Ah
I remember all those nights alone
In a house that didn't feel like home
The big man would open his mouth
And what raged in never calmed down
No no
Oh
Oh
Baby boy
You'll get your flowers just wait your turn
Swim in the ocean and grow a fin
You've always had it
You've got the power
Got the power
Got the power
Power to ya
Got the power
Power to ya
My brothers around me they know where I'm going
(Yeah)
Cause they know I'm great
And I know I'm good
I know I'm misunderstood
I got the swag and I'm not from the good
But I've seen some things that make you go crazy
I've seen some people who drive a mercedes
Who hate all they friends and hate all they family
Who's working too much and causing some trauma
I guess that's all because of Obama
I guess that's better than hating your mama
You pray to a god who's under our nation when do we see him I'm feeling impatient
But I've seen some things to question your mental
Make you leave home and question a rental
The life I knew it wasn't too simple
I love my mama but I gave her wrinkles
And grays and strays and beautiful twinkles of hate and love
They're one in the same
She wanna love me
But I cause the most pain
Remember the time that I popped eighteen pimples
I hated myself
I hated my life
I hated the wealthy
I hated their lives
I hated my mom
I hated my dad
I hated my front
And I hated my back
I learned to love myself
And love my life
And love my health
And love the stripes on my back cause I can't change that
And I know I'm blessed
It's straight from the breast fed milk of the earth
That god gave me to wear proud on my shirt
Bitch
I think
I really think
Its time
That you gotta runaway
Far far away
