Welcome To The Real World
Rosco Stow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ohh...
Yeah
I'm so sick of the way
That you get so down harder today
They're sayin Hollywood in the May
But you're dressed like a film star
When you turned eighteen
Did you have a dream
Welcome to the real world
Now there's nothin left for you
Everybody's store you bought
So what is there left to do
Come for me
Come for me
Come for me
Take out the trash
And have five more minutes to think
Think about who who who can you be
You were never destined for fame
But you still love the camera
When you turned thirty
Did you have a dream
The song "Welcome to the Real World" by Rosco Stow speaks about the harsh reality of life and the struggles people face in achieving their dreams. The lyrics project frustration towards people who dress up like film stars but have accomplished nothing significant in life. The artist questions their dreams and intentions by asking if they ever had any. The singer is tired of seeing people become disheartened by the realities of life, and the lyrics suggest that they need to look beyond worldly desires and think about making a meaningful contribution to society.
The chorus hits hard by stating that there is nothing left for those who cannot achieve anything after buying everything in the store. The song's underlying message is that one must stop living in a make-believe world and come back to reality. The lines, "Take out the trash and have five more minutes to think" empowers the audience to urge everyone to focus their attention on what really matters. The song encourages people to embrace their true selves and not let their desire for fame and attention overtake their authenticity.

I'm so sick of the way
I'm tired of your behavior and attitude
That you get so down harder today
That you become more negative with each passing day
They're sayin Hollywood in the May
People are talking about you and your aspirations to be famous
But you're dressed like a film star
You act like you're already famous
When you turned eighteen
When you were younger
Did you have a dream
Did you have any aspirations for yourself?
Welcome to the real world
This is the world we actually live in
Now there's nothin left for you
You've reached the end of the line
Everybody's store you bought
You've tried everything there is to try
So what is there left to do
What other options do you have?
Come for me
Bring it on
Come for me
I can handle it
Come for me
I'm not afraid
Take out the trash
Clean up your act
And have five more minutes to think
Take some time to reflect
Think about who who who can you be
Consider what you're capable of becoming
You were never destined for fame
You were never meant to be a celebrity
But you still love the camera
You enjoy attention and being in the spotlight
When you turned thirty
As you got older
Did you have a dream
Did you still have aspirations for yourself?

I don't know why, but it does. I'm 17 and started replaying GTA LCS weeks ago.

My fave song along with Drive in Head Radio LCS.. Although I thought first hearing that "did you have a dream" sounds "did she have algae" to me. 😂
