Cher Lloyd - Behind the Music Lyrics

[Chorus]
No you don't stand a chance
For a second in my world?
The same old song, it won't last long
If you can't stand behind the music??
All the fame, all the girls?
And all the money in this world?
They don't mean shhh, better admit
If you can't stand behind the music??

So stand up?, show 'em how we do it
Won't back down until I see your, hands up
Tell 'em what the truth is?
Stand behind the music??

[Verse 1]
You gotta get behind, ?
Cross your heart, hope to die?
Splash a hype, dash a pretty
That don't mean I'll buy?
Okay alright already,
They getting money
All the frauds, all the phonies,
All the fakes, slow down?
It's a fast paced world, breathe, breathe
Look my face in the mirror?
Say, "Who the heck am I?"? look me in the eye
Is this conviction or addiction or a waste of time???
Just name a genre?, yeah I've tried it
Been doin' this from 15 to life, yeah?
I need a break already, ?I gotta find it
And for the first time in my life, I'm doing my shit
?I, I, I, I, I wanna stand in this pop star frenzy?
Girls getting praise, look at Nicki look at Katy?
Chew it up, make my teeth rot?
You think I'm talkin' to ya?? I'm probably not, nah

[Chorus]
No you don't stand a chance?
For a second in my world?
The same old song, it won't last long?
If you can't stand behind the music??
All the fame, all the girls?
And all the money in this world?
They don't mean shhh, better admit
If you can't stand behind the music??

[Verse 2]
Rewind, when I was a little younger
Lookin' for a label and a little clean danger
LA had a taste for a new adventure?
We opened every 'do not enter
Yeah I was tryin' hard to be somebody?
Be the cool kid at the party
Lookin' at me laddy daddy, hottie hottie, hot tamale?
Stranger sizing up my body ?told me I could be somebody
Wait, someone stopped me,
Went home and I called my mommy?
Oh no, I'm not that girl?,
I still wanna be the leader of the f-f-free world
I'm a big dreamer, I'm a believer?
Just try to tell me no, I'm a go full steam ahead?
No, can't slow me down?
Gonna run this town from the inside out
Block by block from the bottom to the top
I know just who I am?
And I know just who I'm not

[Chorus]
?No you don't stand a chance
For a second in my world?
The same old song, it won't last long
If you can't stand behind the music??
All the fame, all the girls?
And all the money in this world?
They don't mean shhh, better admit
If you can't stand behind the music??

So stand up, show em how we do it
Won't back down until I see your hands up
Tell 'em what the truth is?
Stand behind the music

Yeah, stand up, come on let me see you?
Front row up to the nose bleeders?
Hands up, if you really need it?
Stand behind the music??

No you don't stand a chance?
For a second in my world?
The same old song, it won't last long?
If you can't stand behind the music
