Lyrics Gorilla Biscuits – Competition
Text:
It seems that all successful things
And all the envy that they bring
Might not be worth it
Being shot down every minute
And all the time that you’ve spent
The key to success is the faith
In knowing you’re right
Memories of better days
Is what you’re holding on to
When the critics loved you
Competition has its way
Of bringing you down
Bringing you down
Always being number one
Robs the music of its fun
Ego trips get in the way of the goals we’ve set
Now the audience is split
We’ve worked too hard to watch it all
All fade away
Memories of better days
Is what you’re holding on to
When the critics loved you
Competition has its way
Of making you mad
Why can’t you be glad… for me
Well I know what competition means
And all the feelings that it brings
Friends that want to be on top
You’re on the list of friends to drop
At your expense it isn’t real
It’s jealousy… and jealousy’s not true
No it’s not true
At your expense
In competition with you
