lyrics

Another night of writing, file saved to copy scripts
Lyrics building up, while I’m filling up these floppy disks
These young faces spit lines, they flip rhymes in quick time
From paper to the label where they’re favoring to get signed

You know, at open mics I'd roll the dice
So enticed by the glowing lights and flows that I'd go home and write
Focused right, sharp as a Bowie knife
With a record label dream becoming my only goal in life

Envisioned how success will feel, like opening the seventh seal
Everything is better, I’d be settled with a record deal
Thinking how to measure real, hadn’t fully mastered yet
Realized the most important factor was my happiness

And soon there came a time where that exited my mind
When I noticed no success had come from stories like mine
I decide, finally I think I know what's best for my life
Not the limelight; just making something that I'd like

Success! Doing what you love, loving what you do
Success! Always building up, gotta see it through
Success! Fire burning bright, light a hundred proof
Success! Never giving up, dedicated to

Doing what you love, loving what you do
Always building up, gotta see it through
Success! Fire burning bright, light a hundred proof
Success! Never giving up, dedicated to

Now I travel every week and get to live my dreams out
Doing what I used to dream ‘bout
Took an unconventional path to get to the math
Learned that when you try force, you can always find that link to the past (yeah)

Practical exposure had the value understood
To minimize the bad times and maximize the good
Fortunate to add mine, befriending all opponents
With gratitude, I’m thankful and I’m loving every moment

Even when I faced doubt, never took the safe route
Thankful to anyone who let us turn the place out
Continue bringing it to anyone who wanna listen
Forever focused, I got tunnel vision

Never looking back, cover tracks, with the future still ahead
Sprinting to the finish like the maps in Left 4 Dead
Doing what you love, and loving what you do
With a crowd full of people, yeah we’re here with you

Success! Doing what you love, loving what you do
Always building up, gotta see it through
Fire burning bright, light a hundred proof
Never giving up, dedicated to

Doing what you love, loving what you do
Success! Always building up, gotta see it through
Success! Fire burning bright, light a hundred proof
Success! Never giving up, dedicated to

Successful, a varied phrase, many people quote it
Define and then refine it, then that’s the way you own it
Finally reminded all the times and all the moments
Play it in my mind ‘til I rewind it and reload it

Hold it, like someone near and dear, steering clear of all the nonsense
Struggle is necessary for progress
Makes the night colder, for an indie mic holder
But if I’d had a choice I'd do the same twice over

Which to say, is we aim for no regrets
Might have missed a couple steps, but we always give our best
Mind racing, life changing, did it to the death
Fitting that we’re winning, ‘cause the mission is success

And when I'm done, my friends will exceed my wealth
I paid dues ‘til it hurt, still believe I'm felt
Yet I always lent a hand to those who need my help
But I was never more fulfilled than when I pleased myself

Success! Doing what you love, loving what you do
Success! Always building up, gotta see it through
Success! Fire burning bright, light a hundred proof
Success! Never giving up, dedicated to

Doing what you love, loving what you do
Always building up, gotta see it through
Success! Fire burning bright, light a hundred proof
Success! Never giving up, dedicated to

Doing what you love, loving what you do
Always building up, gotta see it through
Fire burning bright, light a hundred proof
Never giving up, dedicated to
