Lyrics
V1
I grew up accepting the way things were
They told me, Son, get used to it
You better pick another pot to stir
Sometimes it made me wanna quit
Bridge
Tolerance tried mypatience
V2
It was such a bitter pill to swallow
Sweet surrender, left me feeling sick
Uncertain about tomorrow
It tasted more like arsenic
Bridge
Question what you tolerate
Chorus
The heart doesn't always agree with the mind
Question why you want to please them
Redemption can be hard to find
Don't pass judgment or condemn
Those who stand before you
You might not knowwhere they've been
Or understandtheir point of view
So if your patience is wearingthin
And you don't know the right thing to do
Test your endurance, Tip thebalance
Recognize tolerance, tolerance
V3
There are different types of tolerance
For people and conditions
Differences give us a chance
To overcome our superstitions
Bridge
Question what you tolerate
Only you can decide
Chorus
The heart doesn't always agree with the mind
Question why you want to please them
Redemption can be hard to find
Don't pass judgment or condemn
Those who stand before you
You might not knowwhere they've been
Or understandtheir point of view
So if your patience is wearingthin
And you don't know the right thing to do
Test your endurance, Tip thebalance
Recognize tolerance, tolerance
Outro
Question what you tolerate
Only you can decide
The limits of tolerance, tolerance
