Brandon Sutton - Take It Lyrics

All of my life there's been a constant fight
To stay true to what's inside, due to fear that some won't like me
For what God unlocked in my mind, the truth hurt at the time
When I realized that my life wasn't looking like what you desired for me
Let's be honest
Why don't I have what I've always wanted
How many times have I missed my moment
Slothing around when I should be on it but I say I want it
Whoa, let's be honest
Yea
It hurts the worst admitting your problems
I know it all but can't seem to solve em nah
Bring up my slack I'm switching the topic
I let my pride be the thing that depleted my options
Forbid I fall when I'm on that'll be a problem
I set a flame I'm ashamed ain't uphold my honor
Used everything that they gave to destroy me proper
Are you ashamed? No! Papa told me Take it
Forbid I fall when I'm on that'll be a problem
I set a flame I'm ashamed ain't uphold my honor
Used everything that they gave to destroy me proper
Are you ashamed, No

Papa told me Take It
Said you can't walk before you crawl when you tryna make it
You can't run before you walk no skipping the basics
You can't win without failing first you've gotta face it
A L is what you make it
You gotta Take It
Said you can't walk before you crawl when you tryna make it
You can't run from the call no skipping the basics
You can't win without failing first you've gotta face it a L is what you make it
You gotta Take It

Take It

God I've tried chasing this dream of mine
But I guess your will for my life didn't quite coincide
With these dreams that I'd find, waking me up at night
Where I can see myself in the lights
I pray one day that's how I provide
A better life for my momma
And when I do I'm gone give God the honor
Nah I don't care none bout no credit need these pockets proper
God gave me this gift and I'm indebted you say what you wanna
Ain't no more fronting on him
Papa laid on his dying bed, said this words
Here, TAKE IT TAKE IT TAKE IT
I ain't understand at first
Love my family I ain't ever seen the righteous forsaken
Even if we had to struggle somehow we always made it
Shout out A2 remember you told me don't be complacent
Gotta make time to redefine me and all these L's I've taken
Gotta make time to redefine me and put it in these songs
Put in my time, put in my time no slothfulness condoned

Papa told me Take It
Said you can't walk before you crawl when you tryna make it
You can't run before you walk no skipping the basics
You can't win without failing first you've got a face it a L is what you make it
You gotta Take It
Said you can't walk before you crawl when you tryna make it
You can't run from the call no skipping the basics
You can't win without failing first you've got a face it a L is what you make it

You gotta Take It
