lyrics
All these years
My mother said Do what you love, do what you love, what you love
All these years
My father said never give up, never give up, never give up
(GQ)
Here's my question about passion - Is it long-lasting?/
Is it forever? Is it a lie that we tell, til we sever/
In this endeavour, is it possible? Make it through the obstacles/
All or nothing as a way of life is full of ghosts, you know/
Yeah, I know, I heard this all before, same song and dance/
There's nothing wrong with wanting more and don't tell me I can't/
and in this rock n' roll cliché, this is my romance/
so stick this out, or run away - I'ma take that chance/
(KING DYLAN)
I've been on the road, I've been all alone/
I've been working hard, you know that I always try calling home/
but right now I gotta roll/ dreaming the impossible/
Started a long time ago - slaving for the audio/
But just to be honest though - No one gives a damn about the job you chose/
No one gives a damn about how far you drove to rock the shows/
Suffered through delusions for the music, and I fought my foes/
I'll never be popular, but I'll never say adios/
My mother said Do what you love, do what you love, what you love
My father said never give up, never give up, never give up
Just keep Givin' em hell, givin' em hell, givin' em hell
and whatever you do, boy, be yourself.
(MC MOSSBERG)
I got a bank account for fucks and it's in overdraft/
And I won't give one and for every time you spoke i laughed/
It's like a joke, a gaff, you poke me and I'm poking back/
My mind's a spoke, it has me holdin' fast, I know I'm molten cash/
You're fuckin frozen gas, nothing, like a hole in ass/
Can't hold me back, I'm totally steam-rolling you, you're folding fast/
so, behold your past, you're choking on your chosen gaffs/
You're old and crass, live on stolen brass, I wear a golden hat, son/
(SMIXX)
Now that I’m older, there's no holding me back/
I’ve spent so much time alone steadily honing’ my craft/
Now I got a son of my own and I can show him the path/
Take a passion and just grow it, and start flowin’ these tracks/
I made a choice when I was younger to use my voice and keep this hunger/
Even when I made a blunder stayed afloat from going under/
I learned from my mistakes, I only let 'em make me stronger/
Now I do whatever it takes so I can do this even longer/
My mother said Do what you love, do what you love, what you love
My father said never give up, never give up, never give up
Just keep Givin' em hell, givin' em hell, givin' em hell
and whatever you do, boy, be yourself.
(GQ)
After all these years, blood, sweat and tears/
Should I give up? Or follow all my dreams?/ or give in to my fears?/
and lead a life so hollow.../
My mother said Do what you love, do what you love, what you love
My father said never give up, never give up, never give up
Just keep Givin' em hell, givin' em hell, givin' em hell
and whatever you do, boy, be yourself.
My mother said Do what you love, do what you love, what you love
All these years
My father said never give up, never give up, never give up
