Failure Lyrics by Otherwise

Gawdzillionare

2023

[Verse 1]
Failure is not an option
The hate the fear the shame
The enemies I helped you to create
Self denigration
Letting lies abound
Pulling me pulling me pulling me down
Another laceration
Skin splits like a divided nation

[Pre-Chorus]
Moment comes, the moment's gone

[Chorus]
You better stand for something
Don't want to die for nothing
You gotta light that spark
Gotta make your mark
While the blood's still pumping
You better stand for something
Don't want to die for nothing
Daddy always told me
"Failure is not an option"

[Verse 2]
So pray until your god obeys
In answer to your fate
Self mutilation
Skin splits like a divided nation
They say just take it day by day
Until you make a play
A declaration
Remember me for generations

[Pre-Chorus]
Moment comes the moment's gone

[Chorus]
You better stand for something
Don't want to die for nothing
You gotta light that spark
Gotta make your mark
While the blood's still pumping
You better stand for something
Don't want to die for nothing
Daddy always told me
"Failure is not an option"

[Bridge]
They whisper in your ear
They want you to adhere
Don't let the evil engineer
They whisper in your ear
Keep feeding on your fear
Don't let the evil engineer

[Chorus]
You better stand for something
Don't want to die for nothing
You gotta light that spark
Gotta make your mark
While the blood's still pumping
You better stand for something
Don't want to die for nothing
You gotta light that spark
Gotta make your mark
While the blood's still pumping
You better stand for something
Don't want to die for nothing
Daddy always told me
"Failure is not an option"
