Flamy Grant - Do It for the Song Lyrics

I don't do it for the rush
I'm not tortured by a wild, insatiable lust
I'm not chasing a thrill
It's not a hole I need to fill
I don't do it for the rush

I ain't in it for the praise
I'm not exchanging my art for accolades
Be it critical or kind
The feedback's never on my mind
I ain't in it for the praise

I do it for the song
The way a melody can make an orphaned soul belong
A broken heart that is stirred
The simple act of being heard
I do it for the song

I don't do it for the cash
I was writing long before I ever had a smash
Hit me with full body chills
It don't gotta pay the bills
I don't do it for the cash

It ain't about getting famous
After I'm gone it won't matter if they knew what my name was
I know what is real
How the music makes me feel
It ain't about getting famous

I do it for the song
The only way I know to right what has all gone wrong
Better than a battle cry
Lose your weapon and live by
The healing power of a song

I ain't writing for the radio
Not gonna lie, I kinda hope they play it though
Cause you might think I'm a star
If this came on in your car
I hope they play this on the radio

I still do it for the song
Nothing better than a whole room singing along
Forget the after and before
Baby, nothing matters more
To me than a song

I do it for the song
All I want is for the whole world to sing along
Leave your trouble at the door
Baby, nothing matters more
To me than a song
Forget the after and before
Baby, nothing matters more
To me than a song
