Do What It Takes

Inspired by "Where you come from" instrumental. Cats & Dogs record by Evidence of Dilated Peoples. Some dream of nine digit account in a bank, I take the music & do what it takes, Some just rely blindly on their fate, He play the hand with the cards right & raise the stakes. Precision is the detail that's making a difference, A long term investment to cover the distance, With the right vision one doesn't need the guidance, We just keep moving with our past left behind us. Paths cross we collide with a blast on the impact, With whatever's left we ride to the sunset, Pursuing our dreams, pursuing our goals, Some got plenty. He got the one that he chose. It's the one & only thing to make him happy, That's why he does all it takes to make it happen, Letter by letter he just goes note by note, Interpreting the music with the words worth to quote. Some dream of being praised & accolades, I take the music, do what it takes, Some choose to blah blah & go for debates, He got the courage speaking his thoughts face to face. Integrity's the key core component, If you got it, you got respect among the opponents, If you rotten inside your head, rotten inside your heart, You plotting your little schemes, watching em fall apart, Go sharpen your little teeth, try to rip out a piece of me, Blood is a deadly poison, rest in a grave peacefully, Thought of "Why so?" But it still remains mystery, Whiskey quiets voices in the head "Quit whispering" One and only goal worth your time. Don't forget! Every single voice agrees on that, inside the head! The maverick. Alcoholic beverage in a teetotaler's throat Interpreting the music with the words worth to quote.
