[Verse 1]
Coffee gone cold on the counter
Traffic at a standstill line
Used to curse the world for moving
Slower than this restless mind
[Pre-Chorus]
But every red light
Every long night
Keeps on saying the same thing to me
[Chorus]
I'm learning patience
Patience
Patience
Let it roll like a long slow train
Every little trial's just changing
How I hold my hurt and my pain
There ain’t a reason to stay so angry
It only turns one cut into three
I'm learning patience
Patience
Patience
Baby
That's my power set free
[Verse 2]
Mama on the phone just crying
Boss man chewing up my name
I could pour my voice like gasoline
Or step back from the flame
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause every sharp word
That I let burst
Comes back
Cuts me deeper than them
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Breathe in once
Breathe in twice
Count my blessings
Roll the dice
Every hard thing
Every heartbreak
Teaching me to bend
Before I break
[Chorus]
