Last One Standing Lyrics
How many times are you gonna try to shut me out?
I told you once, told you twice
I ain't turning back around
You can say whatever
Try to mess with me
I don't care
I'm not scared
You don't have to say you're sorry
Save your sympathy
With a friend like you, I don't need an enemy
I would give you time if you were worth it
But guess what?
You're not worth it
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
I'm always gonna be the last one standing
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Because I'm never gonna give up trying
And now I'm ready to go
I'm here, I'm waiting for you
And I'm gonna be the last one standing
The last one standing
Did you think that I would surrender easily?
But just like that, you were getting rid of me
Is that the way you saw it all go down?
I don't think, I don't think so
There's not a word you can say I haven't heard before
So give it up, give it up
Unless you want a little more
You think you're pretty tough, so let's throw down
It's all right
I'm all right
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
I'm always gonna be the last one standing
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Because I'm never gonna give up trying
And now I'm ready to go
I'm here, I'm waiting for you
And I'm gonna be the last one standing
I won't give up
I keep trying
(I'm always gonna be the last one standing)
It's not over
I keep fighting
(I'm always gonna be the last one standing)
I won't give up
I keep trying
(I'm always gonna be the last one standing)
It's not over
I keep fighting
I keep fighting
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
I'm always gonna be the last one standing
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Because I'm never gonna give up trying
And now I'm ready to go
I'm here, I'm waiting for you
And I'm gonna be the last one standing
And I'm gonna be the last one standing
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
The last one standing
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
The last one standing
I told you once, told you twice
I ain't turning back around
You can say whatever
Try to mess with me
I don't care
I'm not scared
Save your sympathy
With a friend like you, I don't need an enemy
I would give you time if you were worth it
But guess what?
You're not worth it
I'm always gonna be the last one standing
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Because I'm never gonna give up trying
And now I'm ready to go
I'm here, I'm waiting for you
And I'm gonna be the last one standing
The last one standing
But just like that, you were getting rid of me
Is that the way you saw it all go down?
I don't think, I don't think so
So give it up, give it up
Unless you want a little more
You think you're pretty tough, so let's throw down
It's all right
I'm all right
I'm always gonna be the last one standing
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Because I'm never gonna give up trying
And now I'm ready to go
I'm here, I'm waiting for you
And I'm gonna be the last one standing
I keep trying
(I'm always gonna be the last one standing)
It's not over
I keep fighting
(I'm always gonna be the last one standing)
I won't give up
I keep trying
(I'm always gonna be the last one standing)
It's not over
I keep fighting
I keep fighting
I'm always gonna be the last one standing
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Because I'm never gonna give up trying
And now I'm ready to go
I'm here, I'm waiting for you
And I'm gonna be the last one standing
And I'm gonna be the last one standing
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
The last one standing
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
The last one standing

No comments? I'd say it's SP's "normal" theme, if it wasn't for the "with a friend like you, I don't need an enemy". Although that could be pointed in the direction of parents to instead of friends. Or anyone close, family, friends, lovers, for that matter. I like it, it's got spirit, like a lot of other SP's songs, it makes me feel like I can make it all the way again.
This song is about standing strong and surviving the onslaught of people who try and tear us down and make us into what they want us to be or do what they want us to do. In the end, THEY will be the last ones standing after all those who want to hurt them fall.
This song could be of course about parents, friends, society in general, pressure from gangs. Anyone.
