What It Takes

Yeah, obstacles I couldn't count (I couldn't count)

Anything worth it is never the easier route (Easier route)

Look, tell me which is it, the bag or the clout? (Which one?)

It's neither for me, why get twice the amount? (It's you)

Yeah, the graces I got (I got)

I numbered the missteps, and I've had a lot, yeah

Multiple choice, my pick of the lot (My pick)

Don't get it twisted, my people I never forgot

Workin' like it's what I need to breathe, yeah (Yeah)

This ain't somethin' that I want, it's

More like what I need, yeah (What I need)

What you struggle with, I do it in my sleep, yeah

Hold up, don't do maybes, only guarantees, yeah, huh, huh

Yeah, out the way (Way)

I don't need that wishy-washy, pick a side and stay (Stay)

No one lookin' for you in the crowd, I'm past those days (Days)

Huh, I'm not lucky, you just don't

Have what it takes, yeah (Yeah, yeah)

Yeah

No one lookin' for you in the crowd

Things are not the same, I'm at a different level now

Huh

Yeah, too many I couldn't count (One, two)

Mistakes and the milestones, what the journey's about

Yeah,'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 (Just say it out loud)

Bitch, I been out here on the top

The things that I got, they can't be

Bought, and that cost a lot (It does)

Mastery, patience, respect from the masses (I got it)

Walkin' the path is more important than the cash is

Workin' like it's what I need to breathe, yeah (Yeah)

This ain't somethin' that I want, it's

More like what I need, yeah (What I need)

What you struggle with, I do it in my sleep, yeah

Hold up, don't do maybes, only guarantees, yeah, huh, huh

Yeah, out the way (Way)

I don't need that wishy-washy, pick a side and stay (Stay)

No one lookin' for you in the crowd, I'm past those days (Days)

Huh, I'm not lucky, you just don't

Have what it takes, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
