From the recording Never Gonna Make It

This is about shutting down the haters. I've had a lot of negativity sent my way since starting my music journey, so this song's about perseverance and not listening to the people who try to bring you down to their level. My advice... surround yourself with people you can count on for support.

Lyrics

Never Gonna Make It
Ben Harris

You’re never gonna make it with a face like that
Your voice so bad and your dreams so tired
Yeah you're never gonna make it when you look like that
Oh yeah

You tell me how to feel I'm young and confused
This life's a waste of time
Just give up you're nothing new

You've got me feeling like this
Thoughts digging holes in my head
I've got to shut it all out
And they say

You’re never gonna make it with a face like that
Your voice so bad and your dreams so tired
Yeah you're never gonna make it when you look like that
Don't waste your breath

You’re never gonna make it with a face like that
Your voice so bad and your dreams so tired
Yeah you're never gonna make it when you look like that
Don't waste your breath

Well I know how to feel
I'm young but so were you
It's never personal
You forget my name to soon

You've got me feeling like this
Thoughts digging holes in my head
I've got to shut it all out
But I don’t know how
And they say

You’re never gonna make it with a face like that
Your voice so bad and your dreams so tired
Yeah you're never gonna make it when you look like that
Don't waste your breath

You’re never gonna make it with a face like that
Your voice so bad and your dreams so tired
Yeah you're never gonna make it when you look like that
Don't waste your breath

I have heard it all before
Don't go playing all these awful songs
But I'll wake up everyday until it ends
I will wake up everyday and they'll say

You’re never gonna make it with a face like that
Your voice so bad and your dreams so tired
Yeah you're never gonna make it when you look like that
Don't waste your breath

You’re never gonna make it with a face like that
Your voice so bad and your dreams so tired
Yeah you're never gonna make it when you look like that
Don't waste your breath
