Verse 1

It took what it took, and it took all of me 

Cut through the roots of my family tree

Verse 2

Finally had to change, stand on my two feet 

proving to the world, i've got all i need

Verse 3

yeah, It took so long, felt like eternity

Had to lose it all, so I would finally see 

Verse 4

Got tired of losing, so this time I’ll win

no more wrong turns, no more dead ends

Chorus

It takes what it takes, it took everything

lost so much of my family, behind so much sin

it's time to escape this hell I'm living in

It takes what it takes, it took everything 

Verse 5

Your right in accusing, i've been guilty as sin

out there using, abusing, excusing again 

Verse 6

the good was good but the bad much worse

i been living down here in my hell on this earth

Verse 7

I wasn't worthy, there's no need to pretend

Living down and dirty, Scarred deep within

Chorus

It takes what it takes, it took everything

lost so much of my family, behind so many sins

its time to escape this hell I'm living in

It takes what it takes, it took everything

Chorus

It takes what it takes, it took everything

lost so much of my family, behind so many sins

its time to escape this hell I'm living in

It takes what it takes, it took everything
