I try my best to work hard everyday
Working my life away for minimum wage
It’s so damn hard to just get by
I am so fuckin sick of this mediocre life
Is it really so bad to want a little more
To have a little extra before we go poor
I just don’t understand how I can get ahead
When everything’s a struggle and it goes to your head
I wanna stay sane and stand for what’s right
But it seems so hard to stay in the light
I’m trying to keep calm for the people that I love
But everything I got still aint enough
I think the only way we can go
Is to take it all in and take it all slow
Learn what you can and teach what you know
Someone might notice unleash their own voice
Stand up and be heard louder then the noise
Destroy the corporations that control us with their ploys
Make sure the people know we always got a choice
And I’m not saying the road aint rough
It wouldn’t be worth it if the going wasn’t tough
