I just wanna ask the world for reasons why
people see the lies, continue believing
If we had a chance to really achieve things
but what does it take for you to see this?

What does it take to make people move?
What is a mic if I can't speak truth?
It doesn't mean shit if I can't touch any lives
with my words or the rhymes leave no proof

I was chosen by this time
That moment, that second, that day out of 365
Everybody can relate to the line
and it's safe to say that we were the lucky kind

So what'chu wanna do?
That's the big question
Break out and be real, or stay in direction?
Days have its climax but this ain't no fiction
Visualize what you hope; call it prediction

Everybody got their own ways to realize
so recognize how to be you and stop living lies
Keep the fronts and greed most minimized
Sometimes the most subtle shit is lookin' really fly

What does it take for you to see this?
What does it take for you to breathe in?
What does it take to fight your demons?
Now, what does it take?
What, what does it take?

As an artist, right?
I'm always stressin' on how to speak to people through my music
And how to get people to start asking questions
about the surroundings and life

Yo man
You can do anything you wanna do
Just close your eyes and visualize and ask yourself
What does it take?

Day will come with the killings of last breath
Lying in the bed and the question for the last test
Is it you that really made the difference?
Or are you the cat that watched it from a distance?

Like I said; if I was the chosen one
I will fight 'till the pain gets numb, man
I'm always askin' me what does it take, cause
I never wanna live fuckin' fake

What does it take for you to see this?
What does it take for you to breathe in?
What does it take to fight your demons?
Now, what does it take?
What, what does it take?

I just wanna ask the world for reasons
Why people see the lies continue believing
If we had a chance to really achieve things, but
What does it take for you to see this?
I just wanna ask the world for reasons

Why people see the lies continue believing
If we had a chance to really achieve things, but
What does it take for you to see this?
What does it take?
Now, what does it take?

What does it take?
Listen to yourself, man
What does it take for you to see this?
What does it take for you to breathe in?
What does it take to fight your demons?
Now, what does it take?
