In Chris Brown's song "Take My Time," he expresses his desire to please his lover in a slow, sensual manner. He wants to take his time and give her what she needs. The lyrics convey that he is aware of her stinginess but still thinks she is ready for him. When she steps out of the shower, he wants her to stay naked so he can stare at her for an hour. He assures her that he won't let her fall and will make her bloom like a flower. He acknowledges that he has been kissing and licking her everywhere she wants and wants to hear her scream his name. He's willing to wait for her and take his time to make her feel good.
The song has a slow tempo that matches the gentle and deliberate pace that the lyrics proclaim. Brown's R&B background is on full display in this song, with smooth vocal runs and falsetto notes. The Bizness produced the track and added flourishes like finger snaps, hi-hats, and strings. Brown's vocals float above the instrumentation, and his ad-libs and background harmonies fill the spaces between.
