All for One
Everyone always wants to do one good deed,
but I only desire the best for me.
No one else could ever help,
but me. Sometimes just have to let it be.
Gotta do what’s best for myself
to prosper in this world or else.
Tell me that it’s selfish
But is it selfish?
Everyone gets mad when I get the top spot,
But why should I make friends who lie
when everyone wants to burn bridges?
I don’t blame them when they hold grudges
because there can only be one number one.
They would all do the same if push came to shove.
Everyone else is lame for wanting to keep the peace,
I want the best every day, every night, and in every way.
Tell me that it’s selfish
But is it selfish?
What’s wrong with wanting to get ahead?
There’s no need for strife, I just love living that Soprano life.
You’d prefer the high notes too if you could see it in my eyes.
There’s always a choice: get ahead or make friends.
To me, the answer seems so simple because I don’t have time.
Friends come and go, but success is forever and you can’t press rewind.
Tell me that it’s selfish
But is it selfish
