[Intro, spoken] Let’s do a heat check He removes every branch in me that bears no fruit Every branch that bears fruit he prunes to make it bear more fruit You have already been cleansed by the word that I have spoken to you [Verse, rapped] Saw it Evolve right in front of my face, felt myself in the church before it was a place Statistically significant evolutionary pathways of divine ordination rich with God’s grace Even the executive pastor’s name is the same but resurrection’s spirit powers the ways Not just leaders are moving but people, it’s rich with God’s presence, not emotional phase Do you hear what I’m saying? There’s still disconnect between the real and the plays The young and the grays, In patience I write this song, I want you to be able to relate [Interlude] You know it’s gettin hot in here, [Verse 2, rapped] Minority Mindset, minority me, finally my life’s as God meant it to be I’m serving the church even when not on a team, He called me to be, yes it was foreseen. World says I own this marketplace endeavor but one thing that I know, he’s the true stakeholder For me to lower my guard I gotta do some work, I’m being honest, ain’t tryna be a jerk [Patient Pause Interlude] [Chorus, melodic anthemic catchy] Patient, I wait, the heat heals not destroys Patient for fate, pruned & peeled, tools not toys Patient, stopped hate, God revealed my clear calling Patient, my gait, now I’m rising, not falling [Hook, memorable ear candy] I’m patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) God made me patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) Oh yeah I’m patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) Praise God I’m now patient [Verse 3, tone rapped] I’m in the business of power distribution, not like you think, its nature’s holy To find the emergent physical manifestation, I immersed myself wholly One way to begin is with open source, a reusable program, tool for your course Both in what I use and in what I make, I’m becoming aware of what’s left in my wake From proprietary to free, stripped of what you never could see, Now I have open code, router, and spec, I needed all three If it weren’t for the LORD, I’d not have my digital memory 128 gigs for his glory, now I’m building coding agents that build coding agents On an AI PC, engineering reality, from the ones given to me [Verse 4, tone rapped] God promised deceit that I’d have to defeat even from among the people at church I’ve seen feet in their mouths on their seats even though I fish for people, not perch As God turns up the heat, I see how I’m being reformed, delivered from the floody storm Yes I’m imperfect, but promise from thorns, what’s spoken comes true, the LORD is my horn I know what it feels like to exist as the lukewarm, but the fire tongue on me is one holy, not scorn So while others might die from their lack of shielding, the power of God is always unwielding God’s fire changes everything [Chorus] Patient, I wait, the heat heals not destroys Patient for fate, pruned & peeled, tools not toys Patient, stopped hate, God revealed my clear calling Patient, my gait, now I’m rising, not falling [Hook] I’m patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) God made me patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) Oh yeah I’m patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) Praise God I’m now patient [Bridge] Propelled into purpose is what I can see To faith moving mountains in the Maldives Profits serve people, bless those with less May I serve all in God’s righteousness [Chorus] Patient, I wait, the heat heals not destroys Patient for fate, pruned & peeled, tools not toys Patient, stopped hate, God revealed my clear calling Patient, my gait, now I’m rising, not falling [Hook] I’m patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) God made me patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) Oh yeah I’m patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) Praise God I’m now patient [Hook] I’m patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) God made me patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) Oh yeah I’m patient (patient patient patient patient patient patient) Praise God I’m now patient [Outro, spoken] That’s God, getting the glory outta my life I’m telling you know, acknowledging the beauty of writing this song in patience God’s glory is great and when we serve together…..
