Текст пісні
Always wanted to stand for something
A lot of people talk a lot but they ain't saying nothing
Hot air, I can't stand them, I stand against them they're bluffing
I hold the cards and the keys to the door, but I don't rush in
Fools rush where the angels are scared to step so they're stuck in
Aspiring to Satan blatantly hating on those above them
But nobody's really better than anybody
The oven's heating up on this pub and
The cowards, oh you gotta love them
They thinking they got us trapped, they thinking they got us tricked
Well, you ain't never met a man quite like this
I don't do this to be famous, I don't care about hits
Without no money in my bank account I'd still be rich
I got everything I need right here, God's honest
Cross my heart, hope to die, clean energy I'm on it
In a world infested by sickness this music is the tonic
So I'm trying to live the longest life and leave iconic
I stand for something
All the gold in the world, it doesn't mean nothing
How do you really measure success?
You don't need a bag of jewellery to really be blessed
If you look at your reflection and you like what you see
That's the real definition of success to me
Said if you look at your reflection and you like what you see
That's the real definition of success to me
Paper trails, papers tell lies just
To make the paper so that paper sells
Revolutionary cells on the edge, cash flow make the pledge
To the profit now they can't stop it, get sick and take the meds
They subscribe, dozing in our daily lives
Daily news fueling the feelings we all feel inside
Poisonous products, propaganda from the devil in disguise
Take your eyes off that timeline, really open your eyes
I stand for something
All the gold in the world, it doesn't mean nothing
How do you really measure success?
You don't need a bag of jewellery to really be blessed
If you look at your reflection and you like what you see
That's the real definition of success to me
