I'm Taking It Back. I'm Taking Them All Back Lyrics - Singles - The Upset Victory

Youll never hear the end of this 

Youll never see the likes of me 

And everything that I expected 

Isnt what I thought itd be 

If I had the time to stop and think 

Im settled or is this a dream? 

Its greener on the other side 

But nothings ever what it seems 

Brick by brick Ive built this up for you 

Todays empires will be tomorrows ashes 

Ive lived by your example 

Died with my ideals 

Ive laid to rest 10 years of where Ive been 

Im taking back what wasnt yours in the first place 

Youll never see a glimpse of it again 

What exactly did you have in mind? 

What direction we going in? 

You told me to reach for the sun 

When I did it only burned my skin 

Now Im going to put this back 

Together, slowly piece by piece 

I salvaged what I had in hand 

And let go what I couldnt keep 

Brick by brick Ive built this up for you 

Todays empires will be tomorrows ashes 

Ive lived by your example 

Died by my ideals 

Ive laid to rest 10 years of where Ive been 

Im taking back what wasnt yours in the first place 

Youll never see a glimpse of it again 

This time its on my terms 

Whatever happens here 

At least I can see myself 

Even though it isnt clear 

Uncertain of what comes next 

I like it better that way 

Ive lived by your example 

Died by my ideals 

Ive laid to rest 10 years of where Ive been 

Now Im taking back what wasnt yours in the first place 

Youll never see a glimpse of it again
