Stay Patient

Intro

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Chorus

They said that we was never gonna make it, hah

We said, "It don't matter 'cause we gon' stay patient"

They can tell who gon' be rich and who be fakin', hah

They see the cars, the houses and the paper (uh-uh)

Verse 1

Ayy, it's that time of the year when you gotta make a statement

Give thanks for your blessings or you gon' end up complacent

Take a second just to realize what you came from

If you think life's a joke, I guess you can laugh at it

Verse 2

Uh, they know me as the menace, you know that's a fact

Like Mike at the free throw line, I ain't gonna miss Shaq

They say they pray for me but the math ain't addin' up

They get mad when I stay mad, that's just a byproduct

Verse 3

Uh, look what you started (I'm here)

'Cause I'm still here (huh)

Got everything I wanted (I'm here)

I'm still here (still here)

Chorus

It's been a long run (yeah)

It made me who I am (who I am)

It's been a long run (yeah)

It made me who I, who I am (yeah)

Verse 4

They never wanted to see me win or get the last laugh

It's funny how the ones who hated ended up my fans

I don't do this for the accolades or for the fame

I'm just glad I stayed true and never changed for the game

Verse 5

Uh, it's all about the love (love)

I'ma keep it 100 'til the wheels fall off (uh-uh)

I'ma keep it a buck (buck)

And show my love to my family and sons (my sons, yeah)

Verse 6

2026, everybody need to get their money up

If you a hater, you can hate, but you can't stop us (uh-uh)

You can't stop us (stop us)

Nah, you can't stop us (stop us)

You can't stop us (stop us)

Nah, you can't stop us (stop us)

Chorus

They said that we was never gonna make it, hah (stop us)

We said, "It don't matter 'cause we gon' stay patient" (stop us)

They can tell who gon' be rich and who be fakin', hah (stop us)

They see the cars, the houses and the paper (stop us, yeah)

Outro

2026, baby (stop us)

Ooh (stop us)

Uh-uh, yeah (stop us)

They can't stop us (uh-uh)

They can't stop us (stop us)

It's been a long, long run (stop us)

It made me who I, who I am (stop us)

It's been a long, long, uh-uh (stop us)

It made me who I, who I am (stop us)

2026, yeah
