Patience by Freaque

Patience

patience is wasting my time
i been waiting on the wrong compromise
i’m begging for a reason to see
that this change is gonna look something like me

i’m too patient
now i’m wasting away
there’s no savior
it’s on me everyday
we’re too patient
we’re wasting away
there’s a vacancy
that’s an opportunity

to sway the resting man
to sway the silent woman

i spend so much time awaiting my dreams
i lose sight of what i want to be
all these choices got my head overwhelmed
just gotta choose what i want and move on from the well

i’m too patient
now i’m wasting away
there’s no savior
it’s on me everyday
we’re too patient
we’re wasting away
there’s a vacancy
that’s an opportunity

to sway the resting man
to sway the silent woman

all this waiting’s become apathy
we’re too comfortable to say what we need
i’m scared to see what it’s gonna take
to take to the streets and demand the right kind of change

i’m too patient
now i’m wasting away
there’s no savior
it’s on me everyday
we’re too patient
we’re wasting away
there’s a vacancy
that’s an opportunity

to sway the resting man
to sway the silent woman
