take it from me

Kongos

It got a mind of its own and it stings

Woke up, don't recognize the bed
Took me a minute to clear my head
Tried recalling, but the blanks won't fill
Cameras rolling, but I forgot the film

Take it from me
When you start it's just a matter of time
Any minute you will cross that line
Take it from me
You never think about the price that you pay
It got a mind of its own and it stings
Take it from me
It got a mind of its own and it stings
Take it from me
It got a mind of its own and it stings
Take it from me

Nothing can stop me
Nothing holds me back
Think you could slow me down?
Knock me off my track
Nothing can stop me
Nothing holds me back
Think you could slow me down?
There ain't no turning back

It don't take much for the beast to bolt
A split second too late to bring to a hold
Your hypnotized, your feet follow your sins
It's kinda like, a cigarette smokin' you

Take it from me
When you start it's just a matter of time
Any minute you will cross that line
Take it from me
You never think about the price that you pay
Take it from me
It got a mind of its own and it stings
Take it from me
It got a mind of its own and it stings

Nothing can stop me
Nothing holds me back
Think you could slow me down?
Knock me off my track
Nothing can stop me
Nothing holds me back
Think you could slow me down?
There ain't no turning back

Take it from me
It got a mind of its own and it stings
Nothing can stop me
Nothing holds me back
Think you could slow me down?
There ain't no turning back
Take it from me
Take it from me
