Sting - rise & fall

삶의 끝없는 싸움과 성공 뒤에 숨겨진 고독, 그리고 물질적 부에 따른 가치의 변화를 다루고 있다
처음에는 꿈을 이루는 것이 중요했지만, 결국 진정한 나를 잃어가는 자아 탐색을 성찰하고 있다
성공 후에도 항상 변화가 따르며, 그로 인해 지켜야 할 정체성의 상실을 느낀다

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over
And it seems as though the writings on the wall
Superstar, you finally made it
But once your picture becomes tainted
It's what they call
The rise and fall

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over (Over)
And it seems as though the writings on the wall (Yeah)
Superstar, you finally made it
But once your picture becomes tainted
It's what they call
The rise and fall
I always said that I was gonna make it
Now it's plain for everyone to see
But this game I'm in don't take no prisoners
Just casualties
I know that everything is gonna change
Even the friends I knew before may go
But this dream is the life I've been searching for
Started believing that I was the greatest
My life was never gonna be the same
'Cause with the money came a different status
That's when things change
Now I'm too concerned with all the things I own
Blinded by all the pretty girls I see
I'm beginning to lose my integrity
