“All That Matters is a song that explores core values and the importance of faith, family, and freedom in a world often characterized by nihilism and materialism. The song tackles the prevalence of nihilism and a perceived lack of faith and values in society—particularly among younger generations. The lyrics center around "My faith, my family, my freedom's all that matters to me." This song represents rebellion against a culture that promotes nothingness and materialism, emphasizing the importance of faith, family, and freedom. I was sick of all the anger, insanity, and violence in the world—people are constantly looking for something to hate online and yell about. Everyone doesn’t have to agree, but how do we reclaim being in a community, loving our neighbors, and tolerating opposing viewpoints as friends? I was thinking, ‘How do we remind ourselves what matters most?’ I had to say something about it. The song encourages listeners to stand firm in their beliefs and not compromise on core values—even when facing societal pressures." - Kevin Davis NRT Lyrics: [Verse 1] I don't wanna start a fight I always try to do what's right So put your weapons down, we can work it out Don't get me wrong I ain't no pacifist For peace, gotta pay a price And I'll defend what is mine Fight for what I love, help me, God above All it takes is one To rise up and resist [Pre-Chorus] Cost you everything when you're at war These three things I'd die for [Chorus] My faith, my family, my freedom That's what's backin' me Gives me a reason for living I gotta fight for what I believe in, believe it Love loyalty, I pledge fidelity In this land of liberty, it's everything My faith, my family, my freedom's all that matters to me [Verse 2] A kid arrested in the town He read the verses too loud But burn the cities down, celebs will bail you out Where'd we go wrong? I can't make sense of this So just leave the kids alone Better not break into this home 'Cause where I come from We always stand as one Where we belong We won't stand for this [Pre-Chorus] Cost you everything when you're at war These three things I'd die for [Chorus] My faith, my family, my freedom That's what's backin' me Gives me a reason for living I gotta fight for what I believe in, believe it Love loyalty, I pledge fidelity In this land of liberty, it's everything My faith, my family, my freedom's all that matters to me, oh-oh-oh To me, oh-oh-oh [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] When darkness divides us I believe that love can conquer all Courageous, united We stand or fall My faith, my family, my freedom [Chorus] My faith, my family, my freedom That's what's backin' me Gives me a reason for living I gotta fight for what I believe in, believe it Love loyalty,I pledge fidelity In this land of liberty, it's everything My faith, my family, my freedom's all that matters to me (It's all that matters to me) Oh-oh-oh To me (It's all that matters to me) Oh-oh-oh It's all that matters to me

Band on the Run is the third studio album by the British–American rock band Paul McCartney and Wings, released on 30 November 1973. It was McCartney's fifth album after leaving the Beatles in April 1970 and his final album on Apple Records. Although sales were modest initially, its commercial performance was aided by two hit singles – "Jet" and "Band on the Run" – such that it became the top-selling studio album of 1974 in the United Kingdom and Australia, in addition to revitalising McCartney's critical standing. It remains McCartney's most successful album and the most celebrated of his post-Beatles works. Lyrics: [Part I] [Verse] Stuck inside these four walls Sent inside forever Never seeing no one nice again Like you Mama, you Mama, you [Part II] [Verse] If I ever get out of here Thought of giving it all away To a registered charity All I need is a pint a day If I ever get out of here If we ever get out of here [Part III] [Verse 1] Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash As we fell into the sun And the first one said to the second one there "I hope you're having fun" [Pre-Chorus] Band on the run Band on the run And the jailer man and Sailor Sam Were searching everyone [Chorus] For the band on the run Band on the run For the band on the run Band on the run [Verse 2] Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh Seeing no one else had come And a bell was ringing in the village square For the rabbits on the run [Pre-Chorus] Band on the run Band on the run And the jailer man and Sailor Sam Were searching everyone [Chorus] For the band on the run Band on the run [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Yeah, the band on the run The band on the run The band on the run (Yeah!) Band on the run [Verse 3] Well, the night was falling as the desert world Began to settle down In the town, they're searching for us everywhere 'Cause we never will be found [Pre-Chorus] Band on the run Band on the run And the county judge, who held a grudge Will search forevermore [Chorus] For the band on the run The band on the run The band on the run (Yeah! Yeah!)
