Passion
Pat McGee Lyrics

The brighter thing get to realize your dreams,
When things start to go well and you achieve your dreams, the whole world pays attention to what you are doing.

Brings all the whole world to judge on your scene.
Success brings a lot of attention and scrutiny, with people watching and judging everything you do.

I'm trying to ask you to open up your senses,
The singer is asking the listener to be more aware and receptive to the good things in life.

To all the fine things that tear down the fences.
The artist wants the listener to appreciate the good things in life that can break down barriers and bring people together.

Put up by, and kept by those who don't always listen.
Barriers are often created by people who are not open to new ideas.

To what the father told you they won't be missing.
Those who are not open to new ideas won't miss out on anything their predecessors have told them.

Out and down on this child's intervention.
This speaker is intervening on behalf of a child.

This boy never meant nothing but just to give you.
The boy only wants to do something good for others.

Extra now extra won't you read all about it.
The artist is asking for more attention to be given to something new or different.

Seems you've grown up, turned your life around it
It seems that the listener has changed for the better and made something of themselves.

Don't judge him on what the others might say,
The singer is asking the listener not to be influenced by the opinions of others.

You'll be asking him for just one thing some other day.
The artist predicts that the listener will be asking for something from this person in the future.

He's tryin', he's buyin', he's got himself a time
This person is working hard, spending money and enjoying life.

And it looks like, and it feels like, he's doing fine.
The person appears to be doing well and enjoying life.

So won't you stay back off his line.
The singer wants the listener to leave this person alone and not interfere.

People, now people, won't you please understand.
The artist is addressing the public, asking them to try and understand something.

This child's not thinking about what others chance.
This child is not concerned about taking chances and risks, despite what others may think.

The rain's pouring down on him like harsh blowing sand.
The child is facing a lot of hard and difficult challenges in life.

Blinding game of darkness it's no wonder he ran
The difficult challenges this child faces can be overwhelming and it's understandable why they might want to run away from them.

Back to the old school right now if they see him though.
The child might return to their old school if they are seen or recognized.

They know that he's brewing up a fresh batch of home stew
The child might be cooking up something new or different, and those who know them are aware of this.

Now they'll sit back and if they only knew.
Those who know the child will sit back and watch, realizing that they have talent and potential.

This boy never meant nothing but just to give you.
The child only wants to do something good for others.
