"Slave to the Party" is the second single from the upcoming debut album "Make Something Happen Here" by Josh Gillespie.

lyrics

I got passed the rope
I dive right in
Want and desire
I hope to fit in
I play by the rules and
I'll get what I want
But step to the chief
And I'll take the brunt
Of pleasures and pain
There's more than enough
Got love for my friends
Well that could be tough
How did I end up here?

Now I'm a

Slave to the Party
I need the noise
Give in to fear
I've got no choice
Slave to the Party
I want all the likes
Lost in the darkness
Can't see no light

Slave to the Party
I need the noise
Give in to fear
I've got no choice
Slave to the Party
I want all the likes
Lost in the darkness
Can't see no light

I'm feelin' the flow
The power, the groove
What am I serving?
What do I approve?
I'm told forget
All that I know
My god it's the party
Let's put on a show
No one considered
what's right or what's wrong
All that will matter
Is that I belong
How did I end up here?

Cuz I'm

Slave to the Party
I want the noise
Give in to fear
I've got no choice
Slave to the Party
I need all the lies
Lost in the darkness
Can't see no light

Slave to the Party
I want the noise
Give in to fear
I've got no choice
Slave to the Party
I need all the lies
Lost in the darkness
Can't see no light

I built an idol and danced to the beat
I drank my fill and had something to eat
It has a way of bending you
It has a way of measuring your price -
What's your price?

Now I'm

Free from the party
Free from the noise
Free from the fear
I've got my choice
Free from the party
I see all the lies
Freed from the darkness
I see the light

Free from the party
Free from the noise
Free from the fear
I've got my choice
Free from the party
I see all the lies
Freed from the darkness
I see the light
