Mike Mitch lays it bare on i still lack patience., a mid-tempo confessional wrapped in sharp percussion and the flickering hum of a pitched-up soul sample that loops in the background like a memory you can’t quite shake.
The production feels minimalist but textured — part meditative, part exhausted.
His delivery rides the beat like a steady exhale, unfussy but pointed. “My patience get a little bitter thinner each day,” he admits, not once but over and over, as if repetition might relieve the weight.
“I need a place that’s providing peace where my family lay” becomes the heart of the track — a line that doesn’t ask for sympathy, just space.
That sped-up vocal chop – a classic hip-hop technique – adds a rawness that plays counterpoint to the track’s introspective tone. It’s a contrast that works: steady flow meets spiralling emotion.
This is growth in real time — a man watching the clock, not for glory, but just for some clarity. i still lack patience.doesn’t explode; it simmers. And somehow, that’s what makes it land.

Mike Mitch i still lack patience Lyrics
You know I’m starting to realize
I’m in a space where…
How I show up
As I can show up
Is the best I’m gone show up
So…
That’s the only way I know how to show up
If I even choose to show up
Hook
Check check
My patience get a little bitter thinner each day
Cuz I need definitive plays
I need a place that’s providing peace where my family lay
We breaking through I won’t break
My patience get a little bitter thinner each day
Each minute a moment to make
Plenty of moments to make
Look at the roads that we took
That lead to the plays that we make
I been embracing my faith
Stamina built for the chase
Verse 1
I mean the way that I train
Proves that I know I’m in shape
Light up a spleezy escape
Look up to Jeezy
And even Yeezy
Know Weezy a great
Living in purpose it isn’t easy but keeping me sane
Whenever we feeling domesticated
We hop on a plane
Way that I stray out and dumb on everything
Don’t got a lane
Know I’m the vibiest and the coldest
Engraved on a chain
I’m the omega of things
I’m the portrayer of portrait framing of putting in pain
Hook
Patience get thinner each day
Cuz I need definitive plays
I need a place that’s providing peace where my family lay
And we breaking through I won’t break
My patience get a little bitter thinner each day
Each minute a moment to make
Plenty of moments to make
Look at the roads that we took
That lead to the plays that we make
I been embracing my faith
Stamina built for the chase
Patience got thinner each day
My patience got thinner each day
Thinner and thinner each day
My patience is a little bit thinner today
Thinner and thinner today
My patience got a little bit thinner today
Thinner and thinner each day
Verse 2
Uh
And poppa still pop up inside my head like a shop
And it’s strange
I put up shop and it changed
All of my optics of things
All of my optics regarding people who opted to change
Switch up and change up and then go pitch it
Like you caused them pain
This how I relinquish the baggage
This how I picked up a habit
This how I’m colder than Caldwell when I shoot to make Magic
This why I really don’t panic
This why they up in a frenzy
It’s never friendly I fire they manic
Hook
Patience get thinner each day
I need definitive plays
I need a place that’s providing peace where my family lay
We breaking through I won’t break
My patience get a little bitter thinner each day
Each minute a moment to make
Plenty of moments to make
Look at the roads that we took
That lead to the plays that we make
I been embracing my faith
Stamina built for the chase
Patience get thinner each day
Thinner and thinner each day
My patience getting thinner and thinner each day
It’s feeling thin
