SCOTT STAPP - What I Deserve (Lyric Video) | Napalm Records

One of the best-known voices in rock, Scott Stapp questions the inherent duality of relationships with “What I Deserve,” the next track revealed from Stapp’s forthcoming Napalm Records album, Higher Power, due out March 15, 2024.
After the hard-hitting release of title track “Higher Power” in August, “What I Deserve” is a profoundly insightful, mid-tempo anthem featuring stand-out guitar work by Yiannis Papadopoulos whose contributions are so invaluable, he is listed as a featured artist alongside Stapp.
“We all want back what we give,” says Stapp. ‘What I Deserve’ is about two people understanding who they are individually and coming to a place where they can express exactly what they each want, need, and deserve. The duality in the song is that both sides are expressing the same thing and coming to an understanding of the faults of the other. This song pleads both guilty and innocent with Yiannis’ guitar solo being the voice that articulates a chaotic search for deliverance and the epic release of passionate closure.”
Higher Power follows Stapp’s triumphant 2019 album, The Space Between The Shadows, which debuted at #3 on the Billboard Current Rock Albums chart; #3 on the Billboard Current Hard Music Albums chart; #4 on the Billboard Record Label Independent Current Albums chart; #10 on the Billboard Current Physical Albums chart; and #10 on the Billboard Top Current Albums chart in the US, while landing at #3 on the UK’s official Rock and Metal Chart.

I love his music and I looking forward to it coming out!!!❤❤❤ I’m a christian too Scott! I do my best to live by his word! Amen 🙏🏻 I’m really happy for you!!! This song is amazing!!!

[@LunebachRose]

Scott stap is an awesome singer....

[@chessplayer1000]

Holy Crap another hit. Man, whatever road you're on Scott make sure you stay there. Unbelievable, This solo work needs way more exposure.

[@NancyFalls-yq8sj]

You are talented beyond belief! A messenger. Take action leaving the result up to him. We are all human and and fail miserably and our Creator still forgives us. Share not what you think, not what you feel but what you know, his messager. You will go far! Love all your music! #1fan

[@ChristyJeanLopez]

Praise God In The Most!!!! Christ Jesus Is KING!

[@WingsOfEternalNight]

Ok so let me gather my thoughts before I begin to breakdown how beautifully this song describes the transition from Childhood to adulthood with Creed I was a kid in the hospital dealing with health issues.when scott went solo I was a teenager in remission dealing with survivors guilt. Now in my Adulthood as a Man who survived childhood cancer I am at a place where I am thankful to God and the fact Scott's Music accompanied me through my Leukemia journey and my victory Thank You scott

[@Highside17]

Wow! I'm probably older than you, I was a big creed fan back in the 90's, then it kinda faded I guess. Years go by then I hear Scott Stapp pretty much had a breakdown and went a little nutty. I just came across a video of him singing in, what looks like, a Best Buy, I thought wow he still sounds good. Now I'm looking up him on youtube and the first video I come across is this one, HOLY SHIT! I am back on the Scott train! This video was powerful and blew me away! Sorry you caught my rant but you were the first comment in the video that actually sounded like a true fan

[@WingsOfEternalNight]

Thank you Brother Scott's Music was there for me at a time when I was very scared living with Leukemia my dad would play Creed for me during my chemo treatments@@Highside17 and then after I went into Remission Scott's solo Music helped me make sense of the battle I have spent since I was six years old fighting. yes I am a fan of Creed and Scott Stapp One Day I hope to tell them Thank you for being with me through my Leukemia Journey and my Victory over it

[@michaelg.1786]

Scott's voice sounds great. Good song!

[@gamekom316]

Let me say that is the closest I have came to crying to anything other than my grandfather recently. This is a beautiful song. I felt my whole body get goose bumps and it is definitely making me look forward to seeing Creed on Aug 7th of next year. I will pray for you, knowing some of what you have been through through looking on why you disbanded, and I am genuinely happy you got the help you needed. Much love and God bless you and those in your life. 🙏

LYrics : Love is fear The fear of losing the feeling that keeps you alive Keeps you alive Love is anger The anger that comes when I see that you wasted your life Wasting your life Love is breathing You couldn't stop it if you tried What comes around again and again Will open up your eyes I am guilty I am innocent I am searching for deliverance I get lost I get hurt I just want what I deserve We are sons We are daughters We are fire We are water We all chose Who we serve I just want I just want What I deserve Love is dead Unless you bring it back to life It takes two sides It takes two sides Love is choosing Love is fighting Love is learning and surviving Just accept What you give is what you get I am guilty I am innocent I am searching for deliverance I get lost I get hurt I just want what I deserve We are sons We are daughters We are fire We are water We all chose Who we serve I just want I just want What I deserve I am guilty I am innocent I am searching for deliverance I get lost I get hurt I just want what I deserve We are sons We are daughters We are fire We are water We all chose Who we serve I just want I just want What I deserve

Отличная работа, Скотт. Что за удивительное время когда я могу написать свое мнение прямо тебе лично. Я пронес любовь к твоему творчеству сквозь времена. Эта композиция вдохновляет и помогает погрузится в свои переживания, подумать о своей жизни, планах и надеждах. Мне нравится в этом треке и вокал и инструментальная часть. Такие песни проносятся всегда слишком быстро.
