Lyrics

Fallin' too fast to prepare for this Trippin' in the world could be dangerous Everybody circlin' is vulturous Negative, nepotist Everybody waitin' for the fall of man Everybody prayin' for the end of times Everybody hopin' they could be the one I was born to run, I was born for this Whip, whip Run me like a racehorse Pull me like a ripcord Break me down and build me up I wanna be the slip, slip Word upon your lip, lip Letter that you rip, rip Break me down and build me up Whatever it takes 'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins I do whatever it takes 'Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains Whatever it takes (oh) Yeah, take me to the top I'm ready for whatever it takes (oh) 'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins I do what it takes Always had a fear of being typical Lookin' at my body, feelin' miserable Always hangin' on to the visual I wanna be invisible Lookin' at my years like a martyrdom Everybody needs to be a part of 'em Never be enough, I'm the prodigal son I was born to run, I was born for this Whip, whip Run me like a racehorse Pull me like a ripcord Break me down and build me up I wanna be the slip, slip Word upon your lip, lip Letter that you rip, rip Break me down and build me up Whatever it takes (oh) 'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins I do whatever it takes (oh) 'Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains Whatever it takes (oh) Yeah, take me to the top I'm ready for whatever it takes (oh) 'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins I do what it takes Hypocritical, egotistical Don't wanna be the parenthetical, hypothetical Workin' hard on somethin' that I'm proud of, out of the box An epoxy to the world and the vision we've lost I'm an apostrophe I'm just a symbol to remind you that there's more to see I'm just a product of the system, a catastrophe And yet, a masterpiece, and yet, I'm half-diseased And when I am deceased At least I'll go down to the grave and die happily And leave the body and my soul to be a part of thee I do what it takes Whatever it takes (oh) 'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins I do whatever it takes (oh) 'Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains Whatever it takes (oh) Yeah, take me to the top I'm ready for whatever it takes (oh) 'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins I do what it takes
