[Verse 1]
Rest a**ured
They're weighing words
In sympathetic ink
And they don't waste their time suspending disbelief
They face the facts
With thinking caps
They map out and display
But that's not the only way
[Verse 2]
Common sense
Won't pay the rent
And doesn't grow on trees
But splitting hairs can get you anything you need
Who would have thought
Connecting dots
Might get you to the point?
But charity
Is a rarity
Almost as much as modesty
[Chorus]
Take
The bait
And save
However much it takes
Before you've made them wait
However much it takes
[Verse 3]
Rest a**ured
They're weighing words
In sympathetic ink
And I don't waste my time suspending disbelief
Masterminds
Want bottom lines
To map out and display
If I have every bit of faith
I won't be turnin in my grave
[Chorus]
Take
The bait
And save
However much it takes
Before you've made them wait
However much it takes
[Bridge]
Take your own advice
Before you take a side
Run for middle ground
[Outro/Chorus]
Take
The bait
And save
However much it takes
Before you've made
Your wish
However much it takes
Before you lie in bed
However long it takes
