Fortune
OZ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Climb the fences all 'round
To the places ringed with heat
Fools that go back never rebound
Mein Kampf, money knows
And of all my resource
Lucifer rings the bell
Fortune, make a fortune
Fortune, make a fortune
Fortune, take it all
Let it go and roll the dice
Fling it like you can't lose
Take a fall, pay the price
Sell your high-heeled shoes
Fortune, make a fortune
Fortune, make a fortune
Fortune, make a fortune
Fortune, make a fortune
Repeat
These lyrics from OZ's song "Fortune" are ambiguous and open to interpretation. However, one possible explanation is that the song is about the pursuit of wealth and the risks that come with it. The lyrics advocate taking unconventional paths to find success, such as climbing fences and going to places with a dangerous reputation. The reference to Mein Kampf (Adolf Hitler's autobiography) and Lucifer (Satan) suggests that the songwriter recognizes the darker side of seeking wealth and power.
The repeated phrase "Fortune, make a fortune" underscores the driving force of the song, which is the desire for financial success. The lyrics recommend "rolling the dice" and "flinging it like you can't lose," suggesting that recklessness and risk-taking are necessary for achieving prosperity. However, the line "Fools that go back never rebound" indicates that there are consequences for those who fail, and that success is not guaranteed.
