Lyrics

Takes One to Know One

Well, I wonder what you've been thinking about
Now that the world has made you real
You said, "I don't want anyone talking about us
Because that is that, and that's the deal"

It takes one to know
It takes one to know one
It takes one to know
Yeah, it takes one

No, you can't make the words come out of your mouth
But the things you do, they are real
Well, I was made to be a grown man at thirteen
While you've never missed a meal

Know that it takes one to know one
It takes one to know
Oh, yeah, it takes one to know
Yeah, it takes one

You will repay back what you owe
You will repay back what you owe

Yeah, I think about you and who you've become
And there's still a part of me that cares
Though I'm glad I made it out alright
I'm sorry to leave you there

But you know it takes one to know
It takes one to know one
It takes one to know
Yeah, it takes one

And in the end, the bottom line is
And in the end, the bottom line is
You will repay back what you owe
You will repay back what you owe
