Lyrics What It Takes - City Lights

What It Takes

Maybe life won’t be the way
That I planned it out to be but if I try
I just might make it
I’m just making sure that I
Don’t turn over my whole feet, and keep my eyes
In front of me
What do you see, where are you going?
Is this real?
Am I just killing time
Travelling on a broken wings to know if
To taste the day I won’t give up the fight
Instead I’m gonna prove I’ve got what it takes
Keep in mind it’s not your place
It’s just the life I choose and tell me
I’m not great, I need to obey
I’m just doing things I’ve asked
That I know how anything, might wear you down
To perfect me
I never said that it’d be easy
Is this real?
Am I just killing time
Travelling on a broken wings to know if
To taste the day I won’t give up the fight
Instead I’m gonna prove I’ve got what it takes
I’ve made my mistakes, but I won’t turn back now
Light burns up my back, and we will stand a ground
I’m tired of pretending to be happy when I’m not
I’m sick of acting impressed when everything that you can do
I can do, just as well in my whole life
And yes this song’s about you
