Smile
Max Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm here and alive
But there's nothing inside
The mask that you see hides
The emptiness behind
And then when I cry
My heads in the sky
And I think I don't mind
What's on the other side
The norm I abide
But I'm wasting my time
On making myself shine
Cause Before me there lies
A lady who's shy
And a guy who walks by
And They walk side by side
To the lakeside nearby
I let out a sigh
Just as I ask why
And he tells me it's time
As He stares into my eyes
He demands I let go
She never loved you so
Eyes locked I replied I know




But the way she she makes me feel safe and warm
Just like I'm home

Overall Meaning

In "Smile Out A Style," Max Romeo and The Upsetters urge us to maintain optimism despite the challenges of daily life. The lyrics argue that the children aren't to blame for their struggles but rather the fault lies with the teachers who were responsible for instructing them. The song encourages us to smile, despite the problems we face each day. Although the lyrics highlight that poverty is increasing and that these challenges are difficult, it reminds us that growing pessimism would make matters worse. It advises us to focus on the good things in our lives and to find joy in the midst of adversity.


The lyrics suggest that the world is a joyless place. People are struggling to make ends meet, and the cost of living is excessive. They also reveal how hard it is to find happiness and how difficult it is to stay optimistic. The poem suggests that cultivating a positive outlook in the face of adversity is something to be valued. The lyrics further highlight how easier it is to give in to pessimism than to get up each day in the face of adversity and try to see the good in the world.
