"there's nothing wrong with making a little something while you rock it but please don't sell your soul just to fill your pockets"

Lyrics
You finally lay down the tracks in the studio
Get a song or two played on local radio
Get a little budget to make a little video
Reach for the brass ring, you know that it's the way to go
Or is it? Are you working for the passion or product?
Music for music's sake, or the economic construct?
Don't underestimate the meaning of the motive
Or the power of the principal to which you are devoted
There's nothing wrong with making a little something while you rock it
But don't sell your soul just to fill your pockets
If you're feeling the fire and the pation inside you
I'd probably get behind you for doing what you've gotta do
To get the music made and make sure you get heard
But don't lose yourself in that fire, or you're libel to get burned
This music thing can be very rewarding
But please be real from the start to the end of the recording
