You Want It All
Phat Phunktion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cold shot, can't put out the fire
Burnin' burnin' burnin' burnin' deep inside
Life's too short to live a lie
We can't take our chances for nothing
We gotta believe
Cause we all got to live for something
You want it all, don't stop till you get it
You want it all, can't stop till you get it
No lights shine until you're higher
Can't stop, mine will be brighter
Learnin' learnin' learnin' learn to feed the fire
No fear of leaving this world alive
We all need a reason for living, every day
In this world that is so unforgiving
You gotta find a way
Can't stop till you get it
You want it all, don't stop till you get it
You want it all, can't stop till you get it
We all need a reason for living, every day
You want it all, don't stop till you get it
You want it all, can't stop till you get it
Don't stop till you get it, don't stop till you get it, now
Don't stop till you get it, don't stop till you get it, now
Can't stop till you get it, Can't stop till you get it, now
Can't stop till you get it
The lyrics to Phat Phunktion feat. Johnny Chimes's song You Want It All are about chasing your dreams and going after what you want in life. The first verse sets the tone with the phone ringing and dreams fueling desire. The metaphorical language of a cold shot not being able to put out the fire immediately establishes the idea that the desire for what one wants is unstoppable. The repetition of "burnin'" emphasizes the intense and passionate nature of this desire that is deep inside.
The chorus is a powerful anthem that encourages not stopping until you reach your goals, and wanting it all. It reinforces the idea that in life, we need to have something to aim for and believe in. Lyrics such as "No fear of leaving this world alive" suggest that this pursuit of what one wants in life is not just about material success but also about fulfillment and living life to the fullest. The phrase "can't stop till you get it" is repeated several times, driving the message home.
Ultimately, the song is about having a reason for living and finding a way to achieve that, despite the world being unforgiving. It is a call to action to not give up on what one wants and to keep pushing forward until the desired outcome is achieved.
