Patience is a virtue virtue is a grace[00:00:11]
Grace is a little girl who wouldn't wash her face[00:00:14]
Grace is a virtue virtue is a mean[00:00:16]
Between two extremes one of excess one of deficiencies[00:00:19]
Patience is a virtue virtue is a dirty stain[00:00:22]
Cleanliness is next to godliness and isn't worth the pain[00:00:25]
Grace is a virtue virtue of the pageant[00:00:28]
And this is not a love ballad[00:00:31]
You suggested Lithium to get me better again[00:00:33]
That is unless if we uhm get together again[00:00:36]
But that ain't gonna happen never again[00:00:39]
Send my well wishes to your nutritionist[00:00:41]
Your dietician your pharmacist[00:00:43]
Your personal trainer and your accomplices[00:00:45]
Your partners in thought crime[00:00:47]
Your criminal group thinking doctors online[00:00:48]
There is a difference between what is and isn't[00:00:50]
Business and friendship[00:00:52]
Parental assistance and an assistant[00:00:53]
A permanent solution and a quick fix[00:00:55]
A fit body and sound mind[00:00:57]
A hundred hour weeks and dangerous amounts of downtime[00:00:59]
You got a lot to offer but you're not an author[00:01:01]
If I kill your persecution complex that don't make you a martyr[00:01:04]
Drop the styrofoam cross you can't walk on water[00:01:08]
You could use it for floatation not a flying saucer[00:01:10]
You suggested professional help like I wasn't mentally well[00:01:13]
What I was feeling wasn't mentally felt[00:01:17]
Duly noted you'll be quoted in the eulogy[00:01:19]
It'll be passed off as poetry between you and me[00:01:21]
I know you know the difference between confession and conjecture[00:01:24]
Prosity and needing to be lectured to a meet up[00:01:27]
The student becomes the teacher the son becomes a parent[00:01:30]
From a scab to teamster the sun becomes apparent[00:01:32]
From a chemical imbalance to a litany of habits[00:01:35]
And this is not a love ballad[00:01:38]
You should drown me in that womanhood and teach me how to swim[00:01:41]
Beat me with my own hands and tie down my limbs[00:01:44]
Suffer for my sins or let me suffer from within[00:01:47]
But in the end this is not a love ballad[00:01:49]
We can battle with tattoos to cover up the bruises[00:01:52]
The first to show any sign of discomfort loses[00:01:55]
For the first time in a long time you're not who my muse is[00:01:58]
And this is not a love ballad[00:02:01]
I'm not thirsty I just got hungry eyes you look appetizing[00:02:03]
And from a distant stare broken eye contact in disrepair[00:02:06]
Sometimes I disappear but now you see me[00:02:10]
A part Irish goodbye other part Harry Houdini[00:02:12]
Put my feet to the fire I got Satan on my heels[00:02:15]
If it's all about prestige just wait for the reveal[00:02:18]
I got a new bag of tricks to turn a new black magic woman b***h to burn[00:02:20]
So much for live and learn[00:02:25]
Patience is a virtue virtue is a grace[00:02:26]
Grace is a little girl who wouldn't wash her face[00:02:29]
Grace is a virtue virtue is a mean[00:02:43]
Between two extremes one of excess one of deficiencies[00:02:57]
Patience is a virtue virtue is a dirty stain[00:03:06]
Cleanliness is next to godliness and isn't worth the pain[00:03:15]
Grace is a virtue virtue of the pageant[00:03:19]
And this is not a love ballad[00:03:23]
