“Elevate Myself” serves as evidence that Jason Lytle was feeling jaded about the music industry—and even making music in general.
The tension between being financially successful and appealing to a wide audience versus finding personal fulfillment through art is a big theme in this song.
Grandaddy...
I don't wanna work all night and day on writing songs that make the young girls cry
Or playing little solos on the keyboard so the kids will ask me how and why
I just wanna, I just wanna, I just wanna elevate myself
I just wanna, I just wanna, I just wanna elevate myself
And maybe for a little get to where I find it really hard to hate myself
I just wanna, I just wanna, I just wanna elevate myself
I don't wanna stare at stacks of paper all the while while the world goes by
Tradin' out the weather for a clever lyric written by an Ikea light
I just wanna, I just wanna, I just wanna elevate myself
I just wanna, I just wanna, I just wanna elevate myself
And maybe for a little get to where I find it really hard to hate myself
I just wanna, I just wanna, I just wanna get up off the shelf
I don't wanna be a part of all the quality that falls apart these days
I'd rather make an honest sound and watch it fly around and then be on my way
I just wanna, I just wanna, I just wanna elevate myself
I just wanna, I just wanna, I just wanna elevate myself
And maybe for a little get to where I find it really hard to hate myself
I just wanna, I just wanna
I just wanna, I just wanna
I just wanna, I just wanna
I just wanna, I just wanna
I just wanna, I just wanna
I just wanna elevate myself
