By Design/Patience ft. Andre Hando, Zairrion, Brittainee B & Vidamin C Lyrics

I'm resolute, resolve to work until it works so I ain't destitute

Making moves, feeling like my opps are vegetables

Them niggas inactive, no blips on the map

They get sent packing

Like a villain with the dreads, how I'm still tracking

Never one off a bean like I'm Phil Jackson

Still acting like you balling, you been Shaqtin

Can't understand the boss hog, this is pig Latin

You need to get up off the wave, dog, you been satin

I'm laying down the groundwork for the roots to grow

It ain't a problem if there isn't a solution for; Control my own space

Why would I be calling Houston? Know where I wanna land

When I drop parachuting, always put the mission first

High step, paratrooper, and I'm mastering myself, I know I'll always be a student

Even though my goals lofty, I can't say that they're lucid

I just open my mind, live by my own design

If I can plan, I can achieve

Making a way, not believe, but I believe

Faith stronger than Tom Brady's o-line

Treat negativity like spam calls, I decline

So many moments when I needed a lifeline

But I got angels telling me that I'm gon' be just fine

I'm tapped in, making sure my faith match my works

Treating every track like the Hulk and go biserk

Never shied away from the grind, I've been a blacksmith

A real big dog, you niggas are just catfish

Damn shame, no hockey match, but it's a cold game

You know it's hard to teach a old dog new things

Making hits like Kiké against the Yankees

Knock 'em out the park and make him wave the white hankey

Sick of you niggas getting handoffs to fumble it

Guarantee you let me run it and I'ma double it

We big stepping from Centinela to Florence

Think I need to hit a slumber, you niggas are hella boring

I just open my mind, live by my own design

If I can plan, I can achieve

Making a way, not believe, but I believe

Haven't been to sleep, but yes, still I wanna dream

It's not my ending credits to why I slid up on this scene

Never false, I got the power to handle what I believe

Almost like I got the playbook here, I pull it from my sleeve

Got a taste of love, it's hard for me to let go

You missed the assignment, but you do it cause I said so

Fly, don't wanna land, can't wait for you to see

Pay attention to the signs like they calling for the Redcoats

Never had a roof, paved the way for a summer

Had to put in all the work, cause I never had a runner

No 40 on me, but I stay going dumber

I can repeat the success like a terrible stutter

Never saying yes like a terrible mother

Stay away from stress like I'm smoking on Bubba

Still feel wrong like two left shoes

But I'm walking with God, so I still can't lose

I just open my mind (I just open my mind)

Live by my own design (design)

If I can plan, I can achieve

Making a way, not believe

But I believe

I believe

Hey

Uh-huh

Going off like torpedoes

Keep my game tighter than a European speedo

Exotic with the fits, no Nat Geo

But shawty see me in that red now, she on G.O

She on G.O

I floated it over to her like I was Aladdin

Her friend rubbernecking, tryna see what's happening

I know she playing her role, she ain't acting

Yeah, she ready for some action, yeah

Are you ready for this heat like a skin tan?

Have your mind spinning round like a ceiling fan

Yeah, I gotta go cause I'm on a money road

But I gotta stay on track if I want the gold

You ain't gotta worry about how I'm gon' treat you

You in good hands, like Allstate

You ain't gotta worry about how I'm gon' treat you

You in good hands, like Allstate

I don't wanna wait for you no more

But I'll wait on you and I'll be patient for you

I don't wanna wait for you no more

But I'll wait on you and I'll be patient for you

And that's what y'all gotta do

For lack of words, you gotta be patient

Y'all always on my head talking about"When you gone drop the fire? You be hiding fire songs and everything like that"

Well let me tell you something

Rome wasn't built in a day

It took Christ three days to resurrect

And it takes about six to seven hours to make some good oxtails

Therefore, greatness takes time

Wait on it though
