Top Of The World
Dr. Strange Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you don't like what you do
Why not change?
If you don't do what you like
Why not change?
It's like standing on top of the world
O'er again it's in your hands

If you don't like who you're with
Why not change?
If you're not with whom you like
Why not change?
It's like standing on top of the world
O'er again it's in your hands

If you don't like who you're with
Why not change?
If you're not with whom you like
Why not change?




It's like standing on top of the world
O'er again it's in your hands

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Dr. Strange's song "Top of the World" convey a powerful message about self-empowerment and taking control of one's own destiny. The song highlights the importance of acknowledging and addressing dissatisfaction in various aspects of life, whether it be in one's career, relationships, or personal preferences.


The repeated questions of "If you don't like what you do, why not change?" and "If you don't do what you like, why not change?" challenge the listener to seriously consider what they are currently doing and whether it aligns with their true passions and desires. It urges them to reflect on whether they are truly content or if there is room for improvement.


The line "It's like standing on top of the world, o'er again it's in your hands" serves as a metaphorical representation of the power individuals have to shape their own lives. By making the choice to change, they can metaphorically stand on top of the world, symbolizing a sense of accomplishment, fulfillment, and control.

There many magic wielders, and some can be peaceful, or harmful, like these: Dumbledore, Merlok, Gandolf, Wong, who knows what else.

#8 was very intense, NGL. Also, I was amazed at how the bargain with Dormammu (#7) and the Mirror Dimension showdown in No Way Home were executed.

Psycho

If Wanda survived she would be the ultimate ally
