Alexander Hitchens, Daniel Patterson - Take Off Lyrics

They told me that I need
To slow it down
Ten years from now
You ain’t going down
As one of the greatest
We need escalators
I’m up elevators
We on
That’s what motivates us to win
Fall and get back up again
Standing taller than Big Ben
I been going in
Clean your lens
Off the hinge
I’m a ride
Like a Benz
To the end
I belong here
Through years
Blood, sweat and tears
The fear’s of me failing
I’m near to prevailing
The cheers are compelling
It appears that careers
Could veer to the rear
Right here
If you can’t steer clear
From their opinions
Everybody think they got
The recipe for winning
Where they go
In the beginning
If they aren’t willing
Then they shouldn’t be now

I’m on a runway
There’s only one way up
I’m on a runway
There’s only one way up
I’m on a runway
There’s only one way up
I’m on a runway
There’s only one way up
Shake it off
Prepare for take off

In my zone now
Watch zone out
And for the people
Who move the needle
We raise the bar
See the sequel
The man is lethal
He going far
Not a hero
Don’t want the hero
I’m not a star
Play the cards
I was dealt
Look for nothing else
Swim like Michael Phelps
Through the waves
A phase will never pave
The way in these days
Amazed by the price
They pay to just fade
But you gotta stay focused
If you worried ’bout your downfall
They gonna notice
Plus they turn up the heat
When the pressure on
Put rocks in a heap
Now they throwing stones
Try’n’a say where you belong
Everything you do is wrong
Another second you’ll be gone
Gotta tell ’em move along
Let ’em know you not a pawn
Gotta show that you respond
In the way you carry on
So keep it in check
Just do it and live strong

I’m on a runway
There’s only one way up
I’m on a runway
There’s only one way up
I’m on a runway
There’s only one way up
I’m on a runway
There’s only one way up
Shake it off
Prepare for take it

My mind is visual
Time is critical
Everything done is intentional
The grind original
Flaws are minimal
Just try’n’a bag the residuals
Stick to the principles
Sick like a physical
Did all this without the chemicals
We not invisible
You not invincible
Everything points to the general
Salute to the captain
We winners the caption
You caught in the action
I hope you prepared for the masses
’Cause first they be clapping and then they reacting like you went to South Beach
Fix ya mouth, chief
I knew you would doubt me
But it’s
Only
One way
Up
I’m on the clock so I’m out G
