How Much You Grow

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
And they'll pay you

But what if
We change the narrative?
But what if
There's more of life to live?

Who gets to decide
What really matters?
What if what really counts
Can't be measured?
Like facing your fears
Or making new friends
Like proving the voice wrong
That's stuck in your head
Or touching the life
Of someone you didn't know
What if it's about how much you grow?

What does success really mean?
Speaking culturally
They'll sell you
Shiny American Dreams
Always just out of reach
And then blame you

But what if
We change the narrative?
But what if
There's more to life than this?

Who gets to decide
What really matters?
What if what really counts
Can't be measured?
Like facing your fears
Or making new friends
Like proving the voice wrong
That's stuck in your head
Or touching the life
Of someone you didn't know
What if it's about how much you grow?

Grow
Grow
Grow

The milestones we'll remember
At the end of our life
Won't be the paychecks
But moments in time

Who gets to decide
What really matters?
What if what really counts
Can't be measured?
Like facing your fears
Or making new friends
Proving the voice wrong
Stuck in your head
Or touching the life
Of someone you didn't know
What if it's about how much you grow?
How much you grow
