VOLLÉSTAD - To hell with the fame Lyrics

I've been writin' these Tunes for a good long while
Heard 'em play on the radio Sure made me smile
Spent more than I should Not near what I planned
But this road's been rough Harder than sand

To hell with the fame And the fortune they crave
I ain't stayin' quiet let 'em Dig my grave
I'll keep singin' bout Sunsets heartbreaks and Midnight drives
Holdin' on to the moments That keep love alive
They're chasin' them trends Like leaves in the wind
While their tunes gettin' old Ain't got nothin' to spin
I ain't followin' that I'll just Sing what I live

I pour out my soul into Every damn line
But they twist it around Polish it till it don't shine
They dress up my truth Wrap it up real tight
But I keep it simple Keep it feelin' right
Don't need their glitter Don't want their gold
Their songs soundin' empty Lifeless and cold

To hell with the fame, and The fortune they crave
I ain't stayin' quiet let 'em Dig my grave
I'll keep singin' 'bout Backroads small towns and Late-night skies
The kind of good feelin' that Money can't buy
They're chasin' them trends Like leaves in the wind
While their tunes gettin old Ain't got nothin' to spin
I ain't followin' that I'll just Sing what I live

They steal my words like it's Theirs to claim
But the truth cuts deep They can't own my name
Them labels keep callin But I'm done with their Show
I'll stick to my roots go Where my heart wants to Go
I'll walk my own path not Playin' their game
In a world full of noise I'll Hold on to my name

I'm done chasin' crowns in This worn-out town
Let 'em keep their paper I ain't bowin' down
While they're spinnin' tales That don't feel right
I'll keep my heart under Them country lights

To hell with the fame, and The fortune they crave
I ain't stayin' quiet let 'em Dig my grave
I'll keep singin' 'bout Backroads small towns and Late-night skies
The kind of good feelin' that Money can't buy
They're chasin' them trends Like leaves in the wind
While their tunes gettin old Ain't got nothin' to spin
I ain't followin' that I'll just Sing what I live

Here's to stayin' real Keepin' it true
While they run after Fortune I'll stick with my Crew
Sunsets and backroads That's all that I need
Let 'em chase their fame I'll just live free
