Stop
Skegss Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I swear I should be dead already
I'm not scared to live my life
I'm glad you let me
But I swear I should be dead already
I just tend to live my life
I'm glad you let me

I'm going to everywhere
I'm going to anywhere
I'm going to everywhere

Even if the light is red
Even if the light is red
Even if the light is red
I'm not stopping

I swear I should be dead already
I'm not scared to live my life
I'm glad you let me
But I swear I should be dead already
I just tend to live my life
I'm glad you let me

I'm going to everywhere
I'm going to anywhere
I'm going to everywhere

Even if the light's red
Even if the light's red
Even if the light's red
I'm not stopping
I'm not stopping




I'm not stopping
I'm not stopping

I'm 50 years old and these guys are fantastic. Funny how they never won any reality / idol / TV shows. They just get out there and play live shows in front of real audiences and write great songs. Music how it should be. These guys have a huge future. Respect!
