Tony Stone - Approval Addict lyrics
Chorus It's okay my brother, you've got nothing to prove It's okay don't worry, you've got nothing to lose He's already said theres greatness inside of you So you don't need to worry because God said it VERSE 1 I've always felt something like a born failure Since the start of time, I've had something to prove Like a learner driver stalling at the lights Maybe roger rabbit staring at those headlights Fear made me look Twice Since then I've been traveling and searching for significance I've found a way to make a little difference Deep inside I just wanna be the greatest Will it ever heal the hurt of never really being accepted ? Chop and change just to squeeze into their lane I know it's lame but deep down I need to maintain They say they really love me, but they don't even know me Stuck in 4th gear tryna please the old homie I need to break free and see who I was meant to be Instead I'm feigning for approval, ecstasy The high I feel is so real, it's k**ing me I need a way out, lights on, now I see Chorus It's okay my brother, you've got nothing to prove It's okay don't worry, you've got nothing to lose He's already said theres greatness inside of you So you don't need to worry because God said it VERSE 2 It's a dark pit I'm living in, Trying to rise, can't give in Always had my face looking for your Praise Always coming second, not enough to see your face Thinking what to do, now that I've failed this phase I tried again but it all seems to be in vain It kinda feels like a viper to my blood Vain I'm infected now I feel the pride in my soul I want fame & success , I run the show “I want the world to know who I am And when they do, they will Accept me Coz I'll prove to them, that I am the greatest” Now I'm standing on the stage as the rock the show The crowd making more noise coz they want some more I'm on a high coz they're loving what I gotta share What's it worth if I get home and no one's there ? Chorus It's okay my brother, you've got nothing to prove It's okay don't worry, you've got nothing to lose He's already said theres greatness inside of you So you don't need to worry because God said it VERSE 3 - Melvillous Yo who you trying to impress Young blood I see you struggle with defining success You could spend a lifetime trying to strive for the best And only climb to the height of the rest, I digress See, your life is blessed, I won't lie to you friend When you die, you'll be residing with elijah and them The affirmation you're slaving for in this tiny event Is Slightly a waste of time, you're thinking too highly of men Coz everything will pa** away, coz when we reach the fathers gates Well laugh at days which we now regard as great Seeking approval from other humans is kinda clueless Trying to prove your self to someone who is just a blind as you are This is truth fam, grab and take some The kings on his way and when that day comes The people will forget about the accolades won Be wise look to Christ for your validation Chorus It's all, its all its all in HIM Every, every, everything It's all, its all its all in HIM Every, every, everything It's okay my brother, you've got nothing to prove It's okay don't worry, you've got nothing to lose He's already said theres greatness inside of you So you don't need to worry because God said it
