Taking Back

Henderson Taylor

The mind games you play don’t work no more
Like a thousand times before
You’ve crossed the line this time I just can’t ignore
Tell me the truth 
What was it for

Your words were dressed to impress, designed to supress your voice
You think keeping me down will help do like yourself some more

You thought I’d never find
The truth you hide
You’re the one who had me under your thumb last time
How could I be so blind
To your games and lies
Is it such a crime to be taking back what’s mine

Taking back what’s mine
I won’t be denied
It’s my time to rise

Taking back what’s mine
I won’t be denied
It’s my time to rise. 

Still trying to find the reasons why
Always left me high and dry
I can’t go on pretending it’s alright.
So tell me the truth
In black and white.

Your words were dressed to impress, designed to supress your voice.
You think keeping me down will help do like yourself some more.

You thought I’d never find
The truth you hide
You’re the one who had me under your thumb last time
How could I be so blind 
To your games and lies
Is it such a crime to be taking back what’s mine

Taking back what’s mine
I won’t be denied
it’s my time to rise

Taking back what’s mine
I won’t be denied
It’s my time to rise. 

Taking back what’s mine
I won’t be denied
it’s my time to rise

Taking back what’s mine
I won’t be denied
It’s my time to rise

Taking back what’s mine
I won’t be denied
It’s my time to rise.
