Patient

You gotta be patient
Momma always told me I had to be patient
Brand new joint right here man "patient"
You gotta be patient
I know times hard
And you down bad
You just wanna rob
But you gotta be patient
Know your baby momma
Keep calling your phone
Won't leave you alone
But you gotta be patient
Know your little brother
Want some new shoes
But he's skipping school
Man he resembles you
I know your doing time
25 to life
That ain't nothing nice
But you gotta be patient
Single mother five kids no paps
Momma in the kitchen cooking up straight drop
Daddy in prison so I'm on my own
I keep running in this shit everything is a collision
Momma what you doing
I'm tryna pay my bills
Just tryna feed my kids every night we need a meal
In 96 my paps died I was just 11
By 15 my brother died on his way to heaven
I was told that patience would get you far
Who would have knew 8 years later I'd be a star
To my family stay strong on everything you facing
I just gotta work hard and remain patient
I know times hard
And you down bad
You just wanna rob
But you gotta be patient
Know your baby momma
Keep calling your phone
Won't leave you alone
But you gotta be patient
Know your little brother
Want some new shoes
But he's skipping school
Man he resembles you
I know your doing time
25 to life
That ain't nothing nice
But you gotta be patient
(?) He 19 with 3 kids
His pockets sick his stomach sick man you can see his ribs
Cut throat, gotta get it by the gun smoke
This young boy is on a mission can't go broke
Like (?) by any means for them dollar signs
He wylin out like the kids in the columbine
His momma sick with a virus that got her dying slow
Red ribbon victim, washed away like soap
Now we bugging out, plus the three kids
Two baby mommas screaming nigga you ain't doing shit
It's a lot going on from the shit he facing
Suicide, what he did he had no patience
I know times hard
And you down bad
You just wanna rob
But you gotta be patient
Know your baby momma
Keep calling your phone
Won't leave you alone
But you gotta be patient
Know your little brother
Want some new shoes
But he's skipping school
Man he resembles you
I know your doing time
25 to life
That ain't nothing nice
But you gotta be patient
