Patience is the Virtue Lyrics

Never done it the way I should
So impatient, misunderstood
I've always let a girl dictate my feelings, yeah
Too distracted, too direct
Too numb so I neglect
The things I should protect
I'm ready for what is next
I made mistakes, you made a judgement
Focus on a life with substance
I'm tired of waiting
I know I need to face it
I'm building, I'm zoning
I'll never be complacent
I'm on the way up
I need to be patient
Patient like I've never been
Nothing can hold me
I need to be patient
Patient like I've never been
They say hurry up and wait
Haha! Hurry up and wait
Eyes on the gold
And everytime I slip goal, I froze
Best cards in the fucking deck but I fold
It's like I'm stuck in a place that I can't call home
And I ain't circling the bottom no more
Why do I do this to myself?
Over and over again
I'm on the way up
I need to be patient
Patient like I've never been
Nothing can hold me
I need to be patient
Patient like I've never been
I'm on the way up
I need to be patient
Patient like I've never been
Nothing can hold me
I need to be patient
Patient like I've never been
And I can almost touch the sky
Keep my head down it's my time
No feeling dark, asking why
Keep my head down it's my time
I'm ready for what is next
I'm on the way up
I need to be patient
Patient like I've never been
Nothing can hold me
I need to be patient
Patient like I've never been
I'm on the way up
I need to be patient
Patient like I've never been
Nothing can hold me
I need to be patient
Patient like I've never been

2) Slaves is the project of Jonny Craig, hailing from California. Currently consisting of Colin Vieira and Weston Richmond. They released their first single "The Fire Down Below" on April 22, 2014 and their debut album, which is entitled "Through Art We Are All Equals", on June 24, 2014. The next year, Slaves released yet another album entitled "Routine Breathing" on August 19, 2015. Sometime after in 2016, Alex Lyman and Tai Wright both departed from the band and Slaves was left with only Jonny Craig and Colin. Also in 2016, they announced that they were working on theird third LP. On January 20, 2017 they released the first single from theird forthcoming album. The single was entitled "I'd Rather See Your Star Explode", a quote taken from a book that Jonny Craig had read. Due to Jonny Craig's hospitalization and a split with their label, the new album's release date was pushed back until January 2018. Their third album is titled "Beautiful Death".

3) Slaves was the original name of Pleasure Forever formed by Joshua Hughes (Guitars), Andrew Rothbard (Vocals / Piano / Keyboards) and David Clifford (Drums/ Percussion). Their music is generally dark, and has a somewhat gothic/cabaret feel. Lyrical content (while heavily distorted on Alter) can be vague but is usually concerned with images of hedonism, lust, weakness of man, death and similar themes. Piano, keyboard and synthesizer are very dominant in their sound as well as very fuzzy, soft guitar sounds. With the exception of Sonny Kay, Slaves/Pleasure Forever features all the members of The VSS. Read more on Last.fm.
