Patience / Good Things

"Think I might be done with writing songs"
A line that crosses my mind almost every day
No, I've never acted on the thought
Guess it's another line I never bought
Even though I never seem to have an incentive to stay

"I don't really do it for the money"
Some words that don't fit well inside the US of A
While I try to stick by my beliefs
I could use financial relief
'Cause I sure as hell don't get it from half a cent for each play

Wait, just wait
Wait, just wait

Patience never was my strong suit
But right about now
It's one of the only things that's getting me through
It seems like twice the work for none of the cash
Pour my heart out to get none of it back
So what better time than now to practice
A little more patience

What is it goes into getting seen?
Do the algorithms of the world have to sync up with my genes?
Maybe it's the keywords in my brain
Or my design's a bit too plain
So I'm chewing off my thumbnails
While I stare at the screen

And I never should've written a song like this in the first place
The world could do without another white boy's complaints
I could be using songs to fight for equality
But I'm wasting verses on an apology
So I throw in self awareness just to compensate

Wait, just wait
Wait, just wait

Patience never was my strong suit
But right about now
It's one of the only things that's getting me through
It seems like twice the work for none of the cash
Pour my heart out to get none of it back
So what better time than now to practice
A little more patience

(Where are we goin now?
Let's find out shall we)

Good things are comin'
Good things are comin'
Good things are comin'
Good things come to those who wait

Good things are comin'
Good things are comin'
Good things are comin'
Good things come to those who wait

Good things are comin'
Good things are comin'
Good things are comin'
Good things come to those who wait

Good things are comin'
Good things are comin'
Good things are comin'
Good things come to those who wait

Wait, just wait
Wait, just wait

Wait, just wait
Wait, just wait

Wait, just wait
Wait, just wait

Wait, just wait
Wait, just wait

Wait, just wait
Wait, just wait

Wait, just wait
Wait, just wait
