P.O.D. - Whatever it takes

[chorus]

(repeat 2x)

whatever it takes - (and) we gots to seperate

whatever it takes - all these true from the fakes

whatever it takes - (and/cause) this is how we show and prove

whatever it takes - cause we ain't got nothin to lose



whatever it takes..

face to face with aggression, de-bolish and molish the opposition

armored to be the stronger and conquer my competition

this ammunition, fills a vision that makes decisions

i told you once before but it's obvious you didn't listen

so listen closely, or next time you wanna quote me

and take my advice, you'd be wise to not approach me

and learn your lesson, hit this class and you're over session

found the test and had no idea with whom you're messin..



[chorus]



transformin the mindset, but how quickly do those forget

one hundred miles to run and ain't even broken a sweat

until the death, we won't settle for nothin less

no need to creep you knew we was comin but still you slept

but it's time to rise up was just built up from deep inside

actin like you was down now that leads to a collide

best to recognize, starin at me, because you shook

whatever it takes, is what it took..



.. whatever it takes .. [modulated 7x]



this is our house..

and this is where we live..

and ain't nobody..

gonna mess with us, in our house..

this is our house..

(this is our house..)



[chorus]



whatever it takes! - [repeat 5x]



whatever it takes.. whatever it takes..

this is our house..

this is our house!

this is our house!

this is our house!

this is our house..

this is our house..

our house..

whatever it takes.. whatever it takes..
