Verse 1
What does success really mean
Ask the corporate machine
And they’ll tell you
(If you) Sit at your desk 9 to 5
Pay the bills pay the price
They’ll pay you
Pre-Chorus
But what…. If
We changed the narrative
But what….If
There’s more of life to live
Chorus
Who gets to decide
What really matters
What if what really counts
Can’t be measured
Like facing your fears of making new friends
Like proving the voice wrong that stuck in your head
Or touching the life of someone you didn’t know
What if it’s about how much you grow
Verse 2
What does success really mean
Speaking culturally
They’ll sell you
Shiny American Dreams
Always just out of reach
Then blame you
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Bridge
The milestones we’ll remember
At the end of our life
Won’t be the paychecks
But moments in time
Chorus
