[Chorus: Illy]
(Take it from me)
Take it from me, take it from me
We gonna get there, baby (some day)
Shit, even if it drives me crazy (some day)
We take it straight to the top of the globe
And bring it back down under, yeah, right back home now
Take it from me
And they can hate if they think that it's worth it
But I ain't got the time to return it
This is how it go down my side of the town
Yo you get respect when you deserve it
[Verse 1: Illy]
Now there's a lot to be said for persistence
'Cos shit only seemed distant in the distance. If I could
Rewind the hands of time, wouldn't have picked that
I had so many things ticked off my wish list
And it never occurred till I stopped, looked back
And for better or worse, preserved my thirst
Ain't always been in it, let alone finished first
But I've give every goddamn particle I'm worth
To the cause just to get through the door, you in it
For the strong game, you won't hit the porch and everywhere
They pulled me in, Phaze gave support, Phizzle laced me more
Than any debut dropper came before
Now Pegz trust me to carry the torch
Who'da thought? But a long story short, each coin you carry has a flip
Had my share of hard times and my hospital trips
But it is what it is, now I don't wanna brag
But other than the fuck-shit that happened with my back
If I had another chance, wouldn't change a fucking fact
(Take it from me)
Take it from me, take it from me
We gonna get there, baby (some day)
Shit, even if it drives me crazy (some day)
We take it straight to the top of the globe
And bring it back down under, yeah, right back home now
Take it from me
And they can hate if they think that it's worth it
But I ain't got the time to return it
This is how it go down my side of the town
Yo you get respect when you deserve it
