Whatever
S.M.O. Lyrics

Whatever it takes
I am committed to doing whatever is necessary

I don't know where to start
I am unsure of how to begin

I open my heart when I hear that blunt spark
I become vulnerable and receptive when I feel a strong connection

I don't got a push start
I don't have an easy beginning or advantage

I got the keys to the ignition, I'm driven
I have the motivation and determination to succeed

I pick my own destination, I picked my own path
I make my own choices and follow my own path

Paved my own road
I created my own path and opportunities

Fell on my face and I made some mistakes
I experienced failure and made errors along the way

But at this point, I'm just doin' whatever it takes
Currently, I am fully committed to doing whatever is necessary

Like, whatever he say, I'll do whatever it takes
I am willing to do whatever is required, even if someone else suggests it

Doing what I can to be successful, self sufficient
I am putting in effort to achieve success and independence

There was no commitment
There was no dedication or loyalty

Burned our bridges down to the rubble
We completely destroyed the connections and relationships

I'm stubborn, I don't stop till I get it
I am determined and persistent in achieving my goals

I've been doing it on my own and now I'm grown
I have been working independently and now I have matured

I'm realizing everything takes its time to fall in place
I am understanding that everything requires time for things to work out

Maybe we had to take a break but I'm back in the game
Perhaps we needed a pause, but now I am fully engaged again

What we call love is mistaken, I fell off
Our understanding of love was incorrect, and I lost my connection

Mistakes were made but I'm here to give my all
I made errors, but I am present and ready to put forth my best effort

I turned my back, no runnin' back
I walked away without the intention of returning

I'm takin the steps with or without you
I am progressing forward, regardless of your involvement

But, it's the start, start st-, uh-, 'cause
But, this is the beginning, the initial stage

I like the finer things in life, but it's hard 'cause it is tough
I appreciate luxurious things, but it is challenging because of the difficulties I face

I might love the one I find, that's a diamond in the rough
I could fall in love with a person who has potential hidden beneath their rough exterior

Had to have a hard and gritty mind
I needed to develop a strong and determined mentality

Had to have a thicker skin, be tough
I needed to become resilient and resistant to criticism

I threw away the caution signs
I disregarded warning signs or precautions

'Cause we walked the line of fun, yeah
Because we engaged in risky or adventurous activities

In the heart of the city
In the center or core of the urban environment

Visit back where you first fucked with me
Return to the place where our relationship initially started

Rekindle our friendship on where we had ended
Revive our friendship from where it had previously stopped

I wish we could still be somewhat of a thing
I desire that we could still have some sort of connection

And I know how you feeling the same
And I understand that you feel the same way

Remember when you told me to mine for that ring?
Do you recall when you suggested that I search for a meaningful relationship?

Aw man, how the time has passed
Oh boy, how quickly time has gone by

We play through our memory bank and just laugh
We reminisce and find amusement in our shared memories

I'll do whatever it takes, shit, whatever you say
I am willing to do anything necessary, even if you ask

Yeah, we runnin' that race
Yes, we are actively participating in a competitive endeavor

Shooting my shot and she chase me
Taking a chance and pursuing someone, while they show interest in return
