[Intro]
I could keep doing this for years and not get paid, and it wouldn't matter to me
Because I've finally found what I want to do
I mean, I wake up everyday and I'm excited to do this
There's nothing else that makes me feel this way
(All it takes is time)
So no matter how much time it takes
(All it takes is time)
I'm gonna make this dream a reality
(All it takes is time)
(All it takes is time)

[Verse 1]
Yeah, I can see where I wanna go
Wasn't here a year ago
But now I'mma do it, I got these visions in my head
Like a dream within a dream, but livin' life instead, oh
I plan to keep on dreamin' up until the day I'm dead
Cause this life ain't what it seemin' workin hours with no rest
Keep on pushing keep on moving till I see some progress
But every single day I wake up and I truly know I'm blessed
And this I must confess, that I'm tryna be the best, that I'm tryna be somebody
And I know my time is comin', but it's not comin' express
Put my character to the test, I know I gotta pass
(Know I gotta pass)
Put my character to the test, I know I gotta pass
(Know I gotta pass)
So
[Hook]
All it takes is time
All it takes is time
All it takes is time
All it takes is time

[Verse 2]
I feel like Mister Charles just told me, I'm in a dream, but I'm supposed to be
I went years and years with this unknown to me, but now I feel the thought grow in me, ah
Now I feel the thought grow in me, and I'll be damned if I don't do something now
Before I'm out of time and to old to see, ah
Know that life is gonna be exactly like you make it
And the reaper gonna come and take
So I'm makin' sure that I never get complacent
And I keep up on my path and I keep on chasin'
And I value all that I have and I keep my patience
Cause I'm not waitin' for a kick I'm waitin' for a pick
Ten years on that third level, but it's not enough I need more to settle
I need more to make sure my legacy is one that is worth rememberin'
Cause we all gotta go one day, but we leave behind survives long after we do
That's why even when I'm gone I'll be here, in these songs
Talkin' to you

[Hook]
All it takes is time
All it takes is time
All it takes is time
All it takes is time
