akira the don - get what you deserve lyrics

apply specific knowledge
with leverage and eventually
you will get what you deserve
apply specific knowledge
with leverage and eventually
you will get what you deserve

this one is just a glib way
of saying that it takes time
time
it takes time
even once you have all of these pieces in place
there is an indeterminate amount of time
that you’re gonna have to put in
and if you’re counting, you will run outta patience
before it actually arrives
so you just have to make sure
that you give these things the proper time
life is long
charlie munger had some line on this
somebody asked him about making money
and he reinterpreted that
and he said
what the questioner is actually asking is
“how do i get rich like you but faster
before i end up as a really old guy”
everybody wants it immediately
but the world is an efficient place
immediate doesn’t work
you do have to put in the time
you do have to put in the hours
and so, i think you just have to put yourself
in the position
with the specific knowledge
with the accountability
with the leverage
with the authentic sk!llset that you have
to be the best in the world
at what you do
and then, you have to enjoy it
and just keep doing it and keep doing it
and keep doing it
and don’t keep track
and don’t keep count
because, if you do
you will run outta time
time
time
time
it takes time
[chorus]
apply specific knowledge
with leverage and eventually
you will get what you deserve
apply specific knowledge
with leverage and eventually
you will get what you deserve
get what you deserve
get what you deserve
and eventually
you will get what you deserve
apply specific knowledge
with leverage and eventually
you will get what you deserve

i can look back at my career
and the people two decades ago
that i had identified as brilliant
and hard+working
but hadn’t thought much more about it
they’re all successful now
almost without exception
on a long+enough timescale, you do get paid
but it can easily be 10 or 20 years
sometimes it’s five
and if it’s five or three
and a friend of yours got there
it can drive you insane
but those are exceptions
and for every winner
there’s multiple failures
one thing that’s important in entrepreneurship
is you just have to be right once
you get many, many shots on goal
you can take a shot on goal
every three to five years
maybe every 10 at the slowest
or once every year at the fastest
depending on how you’re iterating the startups
but you really only have to be right once
[chorus]
apply specific knowledge
with leverage and eventually
you will get what you deserve
apply specific knowledge
with leverage and eventually
you will get what you deserve
get what you deserve
get what you deserve
and eventually
you will get what you deserve
apply specific knowledge
with leverage and eventually
you will get what you deserve

what am i really good at
according to observation
and according to people that i trust
that the market values
and those two variables alone
are probably good enough
because, if you’re good at it
you’ll keep it up
and, if you’re good at it
you’ll develop the judgment
and, if you’re good at it
and you like to do it
eventually, people will give you the resources
and you won’t be afraid to take on accountability
so all the other pieces will fall into place
product+market fit is inevitable
if you’re doing something you love to do
and the market wants it
[chorus]
apply specific knowledge
with leverage and eventually
you will get what you deserve
apply specific knowledge
with leverage and eventually
you will get what you deserve
get what you deserve
get what you deserve
and eventually
you will get what you deserve
apply specific knowledge
with leverage and eventually
you will get what you deserve

time
it takes time
time
it takes time
time
it takes time
time
it takes time
