Stand Out Songtext
von Tevin Campbell

Open up your eyes, take a look at me
Get the picture fixed in your memory
I′m driven by the rhythm like the beat of a heart
And I won't stop until I start to stand out
Hmm, to stand out

Some people settle for the typical thing
Livin′ all their lives waitin' in the wings
It ain't a question of if, just a matter of time
Before I move to the front of the line

Once you′re watchin′ every move that I make
You gotta believe that I got what it takes

To stand out above the crowd
Even if I gotta shout out loud
Till mine is the only face you see
Gonna stand out till you notice me

If the squeaky wheel's always gettin′ the grease
I'm totally devoted to disturbing the peace
And I′ll do it all again when I get it done
Until I become your number one


No method to the madness and no means of escape
Gonna break every rule, I'll bend ′em all outta shape
It ain't a question of how, just a matter of when
You get the message that I'm tryin′ to send

I′m under a spell, I'm in over my head
And you know I′m goin' all of the way till the end

To stand out above the crowd
Even if I gotta shout out loud
Till mine is the only face you′ll see
Gonna stand out till you notice me, yeah

If I could make you stop and take a look at me
Instead of just (walkin' by)
There′s nothin' that I wouldn't do
If it was gettin′ you to notice (I′m alive)
All I need is half a chance
A second thought, a second glance to prove
I got whatever it takes
It's a piece of cake

To stand out above the crowd
Even if I gotta shout out loud
Till mine is the only face you′ll see
Gonna stand out, stand out, hey


Stand out, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Stand out, mmm
Till mine is the only face you'll see
Gonna stand out till you notice me
