ryan kopperud - truce lyrics

[verse 1: ryan kopperud]
time to step to it, there’s a things i gotta do list
started makin’ one once, haven’t recovered from it since
i take pride in that, take faith in being busy
on account of filling holes where i found a piece missing
we make a solid record, now we take it to the listeners
take a toll with hard work, and take no prisoners
i do my very best to take the rough with the smooth
and if you find your way too i take my hat off to you
’cause lately i’ve been learning, that nothing comes easy
and it takes a lot more than this cold weather to beat me
i could easy take your wallet, or take your piece of mind
or take a left at the right turn, one way only sign
but i didn’t come to fight, i didn’t come to please
i’m droppin’ the raucous in, to take ‘em out at their knees
we spend time on the darker side of things
underdog status, take out giants with a sling
then take a deep breath, and take it all in stride
it’s straight back to business, we forgot to take five
and if you can’t take the heat, you should come to where i live
and i bet you’ll think twice on what you take and what you give

[chorus 1: ryan kopperud]
(’cause me?)
i take notes, i take time
i take the scr+ps home, take care of the left behind
i take criticism, i take advice
and i take one on the chin in the name of minnesota nice
take notes, take time
take the scr+ps home, take care of the left behind
take criticism, take advice
and take one on this chin in the name of minnesota nice

[verse 2: ryan kopperud]
the clips in, the hammers c+cked
time to let it drop and give it my best shot
they keep talkin’ sideways, i keep sayin’ give it a rest
we’re busy makin’ something fresh and giving it to the rest
no matter how many times, we’re stuck in rut
it’s a given that while we’re still living we won’t give up
messin’ up daily, and testing some people’s patience
i give myself classes every day on just the basics
give myself a break, give my friends a little help
try to give my pride a little time up on the shelf
give me a chance to feel it all, i’m sick of repressin’ it
if you try to just forget it, then you might never get the message
give me obstacles, i know how the stay course
give myself a couple stitches and get back up on the horse
i stay hopin’ they’re impressed, but i still do this for myself
give me a pound, or a hug, or a hand up or some help
if you got up outta bed, give yourself a back pat
and if life gives you h+ll, that’s when you give it h+ll back
if i ever get to go, at least my friends are comin’ too
we’ll give a toast by the furnace, and give the devil his due

[chorus 2: ryan kopperud]
(’cause me?)
i give lessons, i give my mind
when i find my head down, i just give it a little time
i give up the ghost, i give life
i give a swift right, in the name of minnesota nice
give lessons, give into your mind
when you find your head down, just give it a little time
give up the ghost, give life
give a swift right, in the name of minnesota nice

[bridge: the van gobots]
and in my mind, just settled in
i, i can’t see through it
they tell me i need to come alive
i’ve been dead to them
they tell me i need to come alive
i’ve been dead to them
oh, i can’t see through it
and in my mind, just settled in
they tell me i need to come alive
i can’t see through it
i’ve been dead to them
and in heaven, i just settled in

[outro: ryan kopperud]
i give lessons, i give my mind
i take notes, i take time
give up the ghost, i give life
i take criticism, i take advice
