Take It Inside

Try to understand before you judge

Now I'm the kind of man that looks before he touch

But I ain't never touched nothin'

That didn't hit me back, oh, no

And the way we live is the way we die

How bad do you want it? How hard do you try?

You don't ask no questions, you don't find out why

As you watch your life pass you by

You've got to take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Now I do believe a wound heals if you let it

I can learn to forgive, but I will never forget it

You call my name

And like a fool, I'm back again

And I'm watching you die, girl, a little at a time

While I stay hard pretending that I don't mind

I turn my head, babe, but I can't deny

The hurt that I try to hide

I got to take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside, ooh

It's your life, girl, I can't take you there

I try to help, but you're still nowhere

I tell myself, girl, that I don't care

I still can't let it ride

I got to take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside

Take it inside
