Come on, come on, come on
Uh-huh, come on, babe
Chorus
And it's all I can take
And it's all I can take
And it's all I can take
And it's all I can take
Verse 1
These symptoms of my sensitivity (Uh-uh)
Feels personal when no one's listening (No one's listening)
There's things that I can't change, Lord knows I've tried
Ooh, baby, we can leave it all behind
Pre-Chorus
Ooh, baby, don't it feel good? Baby, don't it feel nice?
Ooh, baby, don't it feel good? You don't have to think twice (Ooh, lean back and rock away)

And it's all I can take
Verse 2
Don't walk away
Good times'll keep you moanin'
Baby, let's enjoy the moment
So we goin' 'til 4 in the mornin'
And I gotta get to know it
And I'll cherish it and hold it
And there's a reason—
And there's a reason for all this, uh-huh
Pre-Chorus
Uh, ooh, baby, don't it feel good? Baby, don't it feel nice?
Weight up on my shoulders, and my hands up high, ooh, uh
(Ooh, lean back and rock away)
Chorus
And it's all I can take (In this moment)
And it's all I can take (All I can take)
And it's all I can take (In this moment)
And it's all I can take (Uh, oh)
(All I, all I, all I)
And it's all I can take
(All I, all I, all I)
And it's all I can take
(All I, all I, all I)
And it's all I can take
(Don't walk away)

A Deeper Dive Into the Song: All I Can Take by Justin Bieber Lyrics Meaning
Verse 1
The singer talks about hitting his limit for now. He’s aware of hi shortcomings and had tried his best to change for the better, but sometimes can’t do it. He’s expressing his struggles and feels like no one is listening or trying to understand him.
Verse 2
The singer is begging for his partner not to leave him during his bad times, and promises to make it worth her while if she does stay. This verse can be a double meaning, with the singer saying he will make her feel good sexually and that he will always remember her staying through the bad times. It can also have a deeper meaning where he is saying that he will forever cherish her and promises a better life with him once he overcomes his struggles.
Pre-Chorus
The singer is asking for an assurance from his partner that he can make her feel good (sexually) despite being in a bad place. He wants her to not think twice about doing it with him and just enjoy the moment.
Chorus
The singer is at his limit right now (due to being in a bad place in life), and is telling his partner that sex is all he can take right now. He probably is too emotionally drained and is using sex as a form of escape.
