Try to understand before you judge
Now I'm the kind of man, looks before he touch
But I ain't never touched nothin'
That didn't hit me back, oh noAnd the way we live is the way we die
How bad do you want it? How hard do you try?
You don't ask no questions, you don't find out why
As you watch your life pass you byYou've got to take it inside
Take it inside
Take it inside
Take it insideNow I do believe a wound heals if you let it
I can learn to forgive but I will never forget
You call my name
And like a fool I'm back againAnd I'm watching you die girl a little at a time
While I stay hard pretending that I don't mind
I turn my head babe but I can't deny
The hurt that I try to hideYou got to take it inside
Take it inside
Take it inside
Take it insideIt's your life, girl I can't take you there
I try to help but you're still nowhere
I tell myself, girl that I don't care
I still can't let it rideYou got to take it inside
Take it inside
Take it inside
Take it insideTake it inside
Take it inside
Take it inside
