[Verse 1]
An enlightened sense of mind
Don't look back, don't look down, don't look in
There ain't nothing you could find
If you're trapped and you're bound from within
Close your eyes, let your mind be your guide
When the sickness describes your existence in time
Oh it's nice when you've climbed to your prime
The prescription's despised, but you've still been prescribed

[Pre-Hook]
So you take it
Oh, baby you take it
It's been around for most of my life
So why fake it?

[Hook (x2)]
Oh, you can taste it, love isn't naked
Hearts have been armored, you cannot break them
You lack the honor, you lack the patience
But you still break in, you break in

[Verse 2]
You have to create your time to shine
Don't just wait, don't just watch, don't just wish
You can't dream if you don't try
If you ain't on the top, you can't win
Close my eyes, let my mind be my guide
But my sickness inside makes me witness my crimes
I'm the type who would smile if I died
So I'm drifting in time, and I've been in this twice

[Pre-Hook]
So I take it
Oh, baby I take it
It's been around for most of my life
So why fake it?

[Hook]
Oh, I can taste it, love isn't naked
Hearts have been armored, and I cannot break them
I lack the honor, I lack the patience
But I still break in, I break in
Oh, you can taste it, love isn't naked
Love isn't worth it and you ain't mistaken
All of your time just feels like it's wasted
But you still take it, you take it

[Outro]
So I take it
Oh, baby I take
It's been around me for most of my life
So why change it
