Not new to patience, duly moving through the hours

Cus the most secluded places bloom the most beautiful flowers

And though it's picturesque to see

I can't pretend to make amends and mend my roots when they keep binding me (they're binding me)

And it confides in me

That's why I'm staying to myself

That's I'm praying and breaking my mind that it may improve my health (Lord please)

And it's ironic, huh?

To learn to break out my shell

To continue moving through Hell

And missing out on life's wealth that God dealt (Ring)

Whoops, there's the bell

Another hour goes by

And every step that I take, another hour goes by

And every chirp of the bird I hear, is a constant reminder

How I aspire to sing and fly, but I don't know why or how? (I wanna fly)

Will I even soar to the sky? (To the sky)

Or drown in the fears, or the tears that I cry?

And God please never let me forget what I have got

Lest my pride get shot

(Woah Woah Woah) I wanna leave a message

(Woah Woah Woah) But there's no voice in my box

(Woah Woah Woah) Even when I'm respected

(Woah Woah Woah) I never leave with a lot

(Woah Woah Woah) It's not what I expected, (Woah Woah Woah) but it's what I got

(Woah Woah Woah) Sometimes I need a reflection (Woah Woah Woah) to see what I have unlocked

Sometimes I need a reflection to see what I have unlocked (to see what I have unlocked)

And it's a lot it would seem

Looking from the water to the moon in the dark when it gleams

Tryna muster up the courage to be the spark that they need,

But that flame is snuffed from my anxieties barking at me

Like, I know that I should take some chances,

But what is the chance it makes me grow in my stanzas

And at first glance, it may not be worth the rants

Now it's not packing the stands, now I done wasted my grands

But I know it's not my work, it's in God's time

So I'll let him use me as a vessel, so when hard times strike

And I can't validate my worth or my wait,

I'll just take a page from Isaiah and renew my strength

So I'll wait...as long as it takes

And I will mount up, even if I fall on my face

Cus He got a bird's eye view, help me through all my mistakes

So I know that what God do through me will not be in vain, cus

(Woah Woah Woah) I wanna leave a message

(Woah Woah Woah) But there's no voice in my box

(Woah Woah Woah) Even when I'm respected

(Woah Woah Woah) I never leave with a lot

(Woah Woah Woah) It's not what I expected, (Woah Woah Woah) but it's what I got

(Woah Woah Woah) Sometimes I need a reflection (Woah Woah Woah) to see what I have unlocked

Sometimes I need a reflection to see what I have unlocked (to see what I have unlocked)
