Lyrics:
Just Lean
she was told that it's the word of the guy who was hated
by the god of failure!
Just Lean
No one here is thinking that hard
Death is king now, men are dead to waste life's grace
It is a fool who hides
because everyone is his eyes and ears
The outlaw, no age can judge him
Truth is always born in the mind
If the thick book, had shown him the right path
would it have repeated all?
Just Lean
she was told that it's the word of the guy who was hated
by the god of failure!
Just Lean
she was told that it's the word of the guy who followed
the heart without fortune
He'll come! He'll come!
For the truth came cloaked in fear
He'll come! He'll come!
Before those who warn of dawn
Wild card, wild card
the words of the man who never fails
Just Lean
He says "half the world is my love vow"
It's a mess, but nobody thinks it's a joke
Whether it be a mother, sister, or a daughter
whatever, he doesn't talk about fake love
The outlaw, no age can judge him
Truth is always born in the mind.
If the thick book, had shown him the right path,
would it have repeated all?
Just Lean
she was told that it's the word of the guy who was hated
by the god of failure
Just Lean
she was told that it's the word of the guy who followed
the heart without fortune
Just Lean
she was told that it's the word of the guy hated by
even the goddess of fate
Just Lean
she was told that it's the word of the guy who loves some foolish
diamond
Just Lean
she was told that it's the word of the guy who was hated
by the god of failure
Just Lean
she was told that it's the word of the guy who followed
the heart without fortune
He'll come! He'll come!
For the truth came cloaked in fear
He'll come! He'll come!
Before those who warn of dawn
Wild card, wild card
the words of the man who never fails
Just Lean

He’s completely serious about ALL that stupid shit AND he’s going to live up to it.

  • I love how it's a folk song that starts off with one guy playing kinda quietly playing guitar, but as the stories of Johnny get more and more exaggerated, more people join in and everything gets way louder and the chants of "He'll come, he'll come" get more frequent. Very neat way to break the established trope of Strive songs, rather than being in first person like every other character theme, this is an impersonal folk tale being told at a bar or something.

  • "Hated by the god of failure" is such a cool line. I see a lot of people interpreting it as saying that the god of failure hates Johnny because they are trying to make Johnny fail and can't, but I read it a little differently than that. Think of it this way: If you are loved by the god of fortune, that's usually seen as a good thing because they have the capacity to bless you with good fortune. Conversely, if you were loved by the god of failure, it stands to reason that you would be "blessed' with a multitude of failures. But not this guy. Johnny is HATED by the god of failure. And so the god of failure refuses to give Johnny even a single solitary L. Which, being real, is the most Johnny thing that I can think of.

  • Johnny is such a chad. Let's break it down: -He has a crew of all female pirates (except for him), some of which are underage and all also are infatuated with him; he does not reciprocate their feelings, feeling more like a dad to them. -Was able to hold off Bedman at the height of his power for a good few minutes, a feat very few can match. And he's even more powerful than this, as evidenced by an interaction with Slayer where he says Johnny is always holding back when he fights. -Is a proud supporter of Chipp, a fellow chad. -His character themes are always top-tier, and when given the opportunity to dive into his backstory/themes/deeper meaning with a vocal track, his is all about how awesome he is, and that's it. -Best drip in the series. He is just about the only character that didn't change coming to Strive, because they've already reached the peak.
