Cover art for McFearless lyrics by Kings of Leon

I can't believe no one has picked up on this ideal yet. I think KOL is telling a tale of a man that is courageuous enough to live his life, against all odds, the way he sees fit. In this way it makes him "McFearless" enough to live. The chorus strongly supports this saying that he can't be judged by his "hand/where I stand" but instead where he goes with his "soul" and he must fill his "role" because its his "show". Show being a metaphor for life.
