Despondent - Proud To Fail Lyrics

What's your definition of success?
And is it measured in the things that we possess?
What price must we pay to be a respected citizen?
Work ourselves into the grave simply to gain acceptance from
a society that keeps on -
Rewarding greed with respect,
Well that's something that I don't need.
I prefer to spend my life doing what I want; not what I'm told,
And I don't want to spend my whole life making someone else's wealth.
And I don't need acceptance from the people who just keep on -
Rewarding greed with respect,
Well that's something that I don't need.
What's your definition of success?
And is it measured in the things that we possess?
It makes sense to keep the workforce poor.
Keep us on our knees and perpetuate belief -
That we all need more.
What's your definition of success?
