Lyrics:

People cheer today,
Tomorrow they sway,
When you shine, they play,
But the truth won't stay.
Kisses on your hand,
Strong, they make a stand,
But when you’re in the sand,
They kick, they’re unplanned.
They follow the shine,
Not your heart, divine,
When it’s yours, they align,
But lose it, you’re benign.
Crowd’s a fickle friend,
Support can just bend,
Today’s love may end,
With stones, they’ll descend.
If you want not to fall,
Do not rely at all,
On gratitude’s call,
Don’t build your wall.
People may admire you today,
And despise you tomorrow,
People may kiss your hand,
When you are strong and kick your face when you fall.
The crowd is the wind,
Whispers sweet, then pinned,
Today’s the one they send,
Tomorrow, they rescind.
Hold your head up high,
Let them watch you fly,
Through the lows and highs,
You’ll be your own sky.

Original idea for this song:
People may admire you today and despise you tomorrow. People may kiss your hand when you are strong and kick your face when you fall. They follow you not because you are great, but because you are useful now. You are on top now. You have something now that they do not have. But make them feel that you are hurt, vulnerable, insecure, and they will bare their teeth. I do not blame people for this. I simply accept it as a given and say: "If you want not to fall, do not rely on gratitude, do not build a strategy on loyalty, do not consider the crowd as your support." The crowd is the wind. Today is for you, tomorrow for the one who shouts louder, today claps, tomorrow throws stones.
