It Takes Time by Henry Canyons Lyrics
It's taken time to get here
Taken time to understand
Taken time to move on and acquire a steady hand
It's time to let go, no more excuses
What's the point of being prudent if it hinders your improvement?
I cut my left hand sharper than my knife
Now I know it's sharp, now I know it's slice
Wasn't even gonna cook, I just wanted it to look nice
Left it on the counter for dinner tomorrow night
That day beyond, I walked to the market
Nothin' in my basket, recipe unplanned
Got me thinkin' bout my life, how I'd like to have a garden
Grow what my family eats with my own two hands
Just my own two hands
I told you, gets my spirit hopeful
So much I don't understand
To tend to this land, there's chance of a rainstorm
So I pay, got my change, and I came home
Back to that same old, same old, way norm
Layin' cans so I transformed shapes
Straight, far away from it all
Though it may seem nothing but a daydream, (uh, no way)
[Chorus]
'Cause it's taken time to get here
Taken time to understand
Taken time to move on and acquire a steady hand
It's time to let go, no more excuses
What's the point of being prudent if it hinders your improvement?
It's taken time to get here
Taken time to understand
Taken time to move on and acquire a steady hand
It's time to let go, no more excuses
What's the point of being prudent if it hinders your improvement?
[Verse 2]
I don't know Jack, so it's Hank and the beanstalk
We walk to the rhythm and adapt to how the beat drops
Pardon me, look how dry the plants are
They need watering, make sure we get all the leaves
Drip drop, soak in the sun, live on the window sill
Whistle while we work this activity keeps me still, skilled
Strengthenin' my breathing 'cause I'm sprinting up these hills
Make sure to lean forward that you gather that momentum
Adapt the pattern to the matters at hand
Then expand 'em full spectrum, obsession
No second guessin' for a second selection processional
Four-leaf clover testimonial below the heavens
Ceremonial extension, that's the crux of my attention
In a nutshell, feel rushes of adrenaline settlin' in from the center of my well-being
Shoulda seen it, oh no, now the show's over fo' sho'
[Chorus]
It's taken time to get here
Taken time to understand
Taken time to move on and acquire a steady hand
It's time to let go, no more excuses
What's the point of being prudent if it hinders your improvement?
Taken time to understand
Taken time to move on and acquire a steady hand
It's time to let go, no more excuses
What's the point of being prudent if it hinders your improvement?
