Industry Lyrics by Gretchen (gmusicc)

2021

[Verse 1]
I wish it was still only 'bout the music
Ohh, no
I wish I'd find direction
If I did I'd use it
I'd use it
It's no different I'm the same one
That I came as
And I'm feeling like I've wasted all this time mad
It's a new pressure
When they start paying attention to you
Pain and pleasure solely measured on what you can do

[Chorus]
I've been trying to check off all the boxes
Blood, sweat, tears dripping down the faucet
If it was only 'bout the music then I got it
It's getting harder to pursue the process
I've been tryna pick up all the pieces
Base my worth off of my achievements
If it was only 'bout the music then I got it
I knew before but man the industry is toxic
Toxic
No, no
Toxic
No, no

[Verse 2]
It's always under one condition
Three more albums just to get them all to listen
I feel like I'm not even living
Farthest I go some days is to the kitchen
I used to dream of this
I used to feign for this
I'm good all on my own
But I need a team for this
I got more love to give
But lately I'm feeling defeated
I swore, I earned my flowers years ago
It's way past season, need no reasons
I need no reasons to flourish
But y'all are breaking my heart
And sometimes it feels like on purpose
And before I sign the paper
Best believe I make it known
That I just do this for my Savior
While He watches from His throne like

[Chorus]
I've been trying to check off all the boxes
Blood, sweat, tears dripping down the faucet
If it was only 'bout the music then I got it
It's getting harder to pursue the process
I've been tryna pick up all the pieces
Base my worth off of my achievements
If it was only 'bout the music then I got it
I knew before but man the industry is toxic
Toxic
No, no
Toxic
No, no

[Outro]
If only it was about
If only it was about
