Sticks & Bricks Lyrics

I am fueled by all forms of failure
I paid the price, so I'll take what's mine

I bet you didn't see that one comin'
'Cause I do as I please and apologize for nothing
My time is flying but I'm still second to none
Always shining the brightest when I'm placed under the gun
So here I stand
The only son of a working class man
I won't be held back
I can't be held down

Where were you
When my walls came falling down? (They came falling down)
You tried to hide, you stood close by
And didn't make a sound (say something)

Find you some paper and I'll go grab you a pen
You can start taking notes on this all starting again
Been dead last but found my way to the front
Said my inspirational quotes on why I never gave up

Where were you
When my walls came falling down? (They came falling down)
You tried to hide, you stood close by
And didn't make a sound
Where were you
When it all came back around? (It comes back around)
The reasons why you passed me by
Will always hold you down (say something)

If you can't stand the pressure
Stay the fuck out of my way (I know my place)
This one goes out to everyone who's lied to my face
My heart is filled with hate

I'm making a difference
I'm taking a chance (a chance)
You can say what you want about me
But no one can tell me I can't

Where were you
When my walls came falling down? (They came falling down)
You tried to hide, you stood close by
And didn't make a sound
Where were you
When it all came back around? (It comes back around)
The reasons why you passed me by
Will always hold you down (say something)

What is the Meaning of Sticks & Bricks?

Harnessing the power of resilience and defiance, this fierce anthem serves as a rallying cry for those who've faced adversity. The lyrics depict a journey of overcoming failures, marked by determination and self-reliance. The protagonist is fueled by his failures and refuses to be held back or down, regardless of his humble origins. He questions the loyalty and support of those around him during his struggles, emphasizing their silence when he needed them most. The song also touches on betrayal, with references to people who've lied to him. Yet, despite these obstacles, he remains unbroken and defiant, using the negativity as motivation to prove his doubters wrong. It's a powerful testament to the strength of human spirit in face of challenges.
