Give What It Takes (Album Version)

Give What It Takes - Midsouth

Sometimes the first ray of morning

Is a unwelcomed light

And it's hard just to face the day

You gotta make yourself get up

Put your feet on the ground

There's gonna be fear but don't be afraid

To get what you need

You gotta climb over mountains

You've gotta wait on the good things

And learn from mistakes

You gotta walk through the fire

To get where you're going

To get what you need

You've gotta give what it takes

Some people stand on the sideline

Just watching the game

Wondering why they don't ever win

You've gotta jump in the middle

When the mud starts to fly

No one said it would be easy

It's a fight to the end

To get what you need

You gotta climb over mountains

You've gotta wait on the good things

And learn from mistakes

You gotta walk through the fire

To get where you're going

To get what you need

You've gotta give what it takes

When the journey seems endless

And you've lost your desire

And you can't stand another trial

When your dreams become hardened

Tempered by time

Look past the pain and walk one more mile

To get what you need

You gotta climb over mountains

You've gotta wait on the good things

And learn from mistakes

You gotta walk through the fire

To get where you're going

To get what you need

You've gotta give what it takes

To get what you need

You gotta climb over mountains

You've gotta wait on the good things

And learn from mistakes

You gotta walk through the fire

To get where you're going

To get what you need

You've gotta give what it takes
