They say you got to take the bitter
With the sweet
You got to do your work before
You get a treat
You got to struggle your whole life long
And even then you still can get it wrong
They say you got to give it
Some elbow grease
Before you see all your profits
Increase
It's all about the means and not the end
I hope that's something you can comprehend
'Cause if you do
Yeah if you do
Your victories will taste sweeter when you're through
If you do
Yeah if you do
Your victories will taste sweeter to you
They say that patience is its
Own reward
I think that's something you should
Work toward
Don't be in a rush to get things done
You might miss out on half the fun
They say a word to the wise
Should suffice
Forget that, girl, and you'll
Pay the price
Good things come to those who wait
So don't be too fast to get out of the starting gate
