It Takes

lyrics by: Kelly Wood
Written on Apr 23, 2016 

Sometimes it takes a man to fall
to know the struggles through it all
to find out where it is he will stand

It takes many fallen tears to cry
to know that he can still remain strong
to know he can make right the wrong
and know he is not here alone

Pain it can teach what one don't understand
that the dreams are never gone
and you have to learn to be still
if you want to keep on moving on

Sometimes it takes a man inside to die
to feel a heart beat made of stone
to know that his soul is alive and real
