I used to think my life would be complete, |
|
When I made it in the industry. |
|
But it turns open, honest dreamers into lying, ******* cheaters, |
|
Who all want household names. |
|
Whose ego's big enough to bring in the big bucks, |
|
And if you don't have what it takes, |
|
Just fake it 'cause the kids don't know a thing. |
|
Give it up for the chance to *******ne, |
|
Fell the rush when the crowd goes wild, |
|
Then laugh it up 'cause it's all a lie. |
|
It's all about the sex, drugs and empty souls. |
|
Cause the money's always green, when the record hits gold. |
|
I need it (we want it), |
|
I'll dream it (we'll buy it), |
|
It's safe to say that we've lost our way. |
|
If you want sex, drugs and rock and roll, |
|
Give up your soul. |
|
I used to think that we would live the dreams, |
|
Being artists in the industry. |
|
But they just love you, ******* you, leave you, |
|
Once you don't sell they don't need you, |
|
They'll just find a bigger name. |
|
Keep my music, you can frame it with my faith that I had. |
|
I'll still believe in me, even if you can't! |
|
Keep the spotlight, cause I don't need it to see who I am. |
|
I'd rather be remembered for the person I was, not my ******* band! |
|
It's all about the sex, drugs and empty souls. |
|
Cause the money's always green, when the record hits gold. |
|
I need it (we want it), |
|
I'll dream it (we'll buy it), |
|
It's safe to say that we've lost our way. |
|
If you want sex, drugs and rock and roll, |
|
Give up your soul. |
