Whatever It Takes - Imagine Dragons

Falling too fast to prepare for this
 Tripping in the world could be dangerous
 Everybody circling, it’s vulturous
 Negative, nepotist

Everybody waiting for the fall of man
 Everybody praying for the end of times
 Everybody hoping they could be the one
 I was born to run, I was born for this

Whip, whip
 Run me like a racehorse
 Pull me like a ripcord
 Break me down and build me up
 I wanna be the slip, slip
 Word upon your lip, lip
 Letter that you rip, rip
 Break me down and build me up

Whatever it takes
 Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
 I do whatever it takes
 Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains
 Whatever it takes
 You take me to the top I’m ready for
 Whatever it takes
 Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
 I do what it takes

Always had a fear of being typical
 Looking at my body feeling miserable
 Always hanging on to the visual
 I wanna be invisible

Looking at my years like a martyrdom
 Everybody needs to be a part of ’em
 Never be enough, I’m the prodigal son
 I was born to run, I was born for this

Whip, whip
 Run me like a racehorse
 Pull me like a ripcord
 Break me down and build me up
 I wanna be the slip, slip
 Word upon your lip, lip
 Letter that you rip, rip
 Break me down and build me up

Whatever it takes
 Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
 I do whatever it takes
 Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains
 Whatever it takes
 You take me to the top, I’m ready for
 Whatever it takes
 Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
 I do what it takes

Hypocritical, egotistical
 Don’t wanna be the parenthetical, hypothetical
 Working onto something that I’m proud of, out of the box
 An epoxy to the world and the vision we’ve lost
 I’m an apostrophe
 I’m just a symbol to remind you that there’s more to see
 I’m just a product of the system, a catastrophe
 And yet a masterpiece, and yet I’m half-diseased
 And when I am deceased
 At least I go down to the grave and die happily
 Leave the body of my soul to be a part of me
 I do what it takes

Whatever it takes
 Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
 I do whatever it takes
 Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains
 Whatever it takes
 You take me to the top, I’m ready for
 Whatever it takes
 Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
 I do what it takes
