Triple A
Chasing Peace: Small Trucks' Triple A Wisdom
Lyrics
Pay no mind to being famous
Ignore the pursuit of fame.
Concern yourself only with being good
Focus solely on honing your skills.
Find something that you like and love it
Discover something you genuinely enjoy and cherish it.
As if its all you can do
Embrace it passionately as if it's your sole purpose.
Because that's all you can do
Reinforcing the idea that loving something wholeheartedly might be the ultimate goal.
Because that's all you can do
-All these kids are talking major leagues
Others may aim for high achievements, like being in the major leagues.
But there ain't nothing wrong with Triple A
Suggests that there's value in a lower-tier accomplishment (Triple A baseball), implying contentment and satisfaction.
Toledo's lovely in the spring
Highlighting the beauty of ordinary places (Toledo) during a pleasant season.
And at least you're getting paid to play
Finding solace in earning while pursuing your passion.
& Cooperstown's crawling with fallen angels
Referring to Cooperstown, a baseball destination, using imagery of fallen angels (retired players) enjoying leisurely pursuits.
With the Butterball turkey legs
-Me I am
The singer, distinguishing themselves from others.
Taking the Whiteout to Topps and Donruss
Erasing inaccuracies or misconceptions, setting the record straight.
I am setting this record straight
Belief that history will document your achievements but not your sacrifices.
The history books will tell you what you've done
Recognition that accomplishments are noted, but personal costs aren't.
But they can't tell you what you've paid
The pursuit of inner tranquility amidst endeavors.
Trying to find peace
Repeated emphasis on seeking peace, possibly indicating its significance.
Trying to find peace
-Trying to find peace in the middle way
Desire to find peace amidst life's complexities, even if only temporarily.
Trying to find peace just for today
-Pay no mind to being famous
Restating the advice about fame, goodness, and passionate pursuit of interests.
Concern yourself only with being good
-Find something that you like and just love it
-As if its all you can do
-Because that's all you can do
-Because that's all you can do
-All these kids are talking MOMA show
People discussing prestigious art venues like MOMA (Museum of Modern Art).
But there ain't nothing wrong with mama's fridge
Contrasting the significance of a mom's fridge, symbolizing a humble yet comforting place.
When you're hanging at the local gallery
Engagement in local art scenes where friends appreciate and respect your efforts.
Your friends will come out and respect what you did
-The critics may pan you
Noting potential criticism from experts or reviewers.
The collectors they may hand you
Possibility of financial gain through art.
A big old stack of dirty bills
Receiving money for your work, possibly in a less glamorous way.
But that not why you got into it
Stating that monetary rewards aren't the primary motivation for starting or continuing in art.
That's not why you're gonna stay in it
-It's to learn how to give people chills
End goal: Eliciting strong emotions or reactions from the audience through your art.
Trying to find peace
Reiterating the quest for inner peace and contentment.
