What It Takes Lyrics by ​soundslikewest

2024

(Verse 1)
Obstacles I couldn’t count (I couldn't count)
Anything worth it, is never the easier route (easier route)
Tell me which is it
The bag or the clout (which one)
It’s neither for me
Why I get twice the amount (as you)
Good graces I got (I got)
Outnumber the missteps
And I’ve had a lot (a lot)
Multiple choice
My pick of the lot (my pick)
Don’t get it twisted
My people, I never forgot
(Hook)
Working like it’s what I need to breathe
This ain’t something that I want it’s more likе what I need
What you struggle with I do it in my sleep
Hold up
Don’t do maybe's only guarantee's
Yeah
Out thе way
I don't need that wishy washy, pick a side and stay
No one looking for you in the crowd, I'm past those days
I'm not lucky, you just don't have what it takes
No one looking for you in the crowd
Things are not the same, I'm at a different level now
(Verse 2)
Too many I couldn’t count (one, two)
Mistakes and the milestones
What the journey's about
Scuse me (scuse me)
Can’t hear you over the crowd (I can't)
One more time
If you could do better
Then do it and say it out loud (say it out loud)
I been out here on the top
The things that I got, they can’t be bought and that costs a lot (it does)
Mastery, patience, respect from the masses (I got it)
Walking the path is more important than the cash is
(Hook)
Working like it’s what I need to breathe
This ain’t something that I want it’s more like what I need
What you struggle with I do it in my sleep
Hold up
Don’t do maybe's only guarantee's
Yeah
Out the way
I don't need that wishy washy, pick a side and stay
No one looking for you in the crowd, I'm past those days
I'm not lucky, you just don't have what it takes
