Takes Me A While

(album: The Vault - 2018)

I'm the man, the man that wants it all
I'm not that original
Better men than me have tried and failed
Others wait around for miracles

It takes me a while
It takes me a while
But I get there...
It takes me a while
It takes me a while

Broken loser in a high school hall (It takes me awhile)
I never seem to have the wherewithal
My tongue is tied, my eyes locked up in jail (It takes me awhile)
Busting out just like a wrecking ball

It takes me a while
It takes me a while
But I get there...
It takes me a while
It takes me a while
But I get there...
It takes me a while
It takes me a while
But I get there...
It takes me a while
It takes me a while

I got nothing in the race
Where everybody's just saving face
So tell me how long 'til they reach a higher place

It takes me a while
It takes me a while
But I get there...
It takes me a while
It takes me a while
But I get there...
It takes me a while
It takes me a while
It takes me a while
It takes me a while
It takes me a while
It takes me a while
But I get there...
