Verse 1]
I’m still learning how to love you right
Got these scars I don’t show in the light
Sometimes I’m strong, sometimes I break
Still finding the words I’m scared to say
I know I’m not easy, I see it too
Got walls I built before I knew you
But every day I’m trying to be
A better man than I used to be
[Pre-Chorus]
If I stumble, if I fall
Don’t mean I don’t care at all
[Chorus]
So be patient with me, I’m growing slow
Planting seeds you may never know
I’m fighting battles deep inside
Just trying to get this love right
Be patient with me, don’t walk away
I’m closer than I was yesterday
I may be rough around the seams
But I’m yours… just be patient with me
[Verse 2]
There’s a past that still echoes loud
Voices telling me I’m not enough
But your love cuts through the doubt
Like a light when it all gets tough
I don’t wanna lose what we’ve begun
You’re the reason I’m not undone
So I’ll keep on doing the work it takes
Even through my fears and my mistakes
[Pre-Chorus]
If I’m quiet, lost in my head
Just know there’s words I haven’t said
[Chorus]
So be patient with me, I’m growing slow
Learning things I was never shown
I’m healing pieces of my heart
So I can give you every part
Be patient with me, don’t walk away
I’m stronger than I was yesterday
I may be rough around the seams
But I’m yours… just be patient with me
[Bridge]
I don’t need perfection, I just need time
Your hand in mine while I learn to climb
Through every high, through every low
I just need you to know…
I’m trying, I’m trying
[Outro / Chorus]
So be patient with me, I’m on my way
Step by step, day by day
And one day soon you’re gonna see
The man you believed I could be
So be patient with me…
Yeah, be patient with me…
