Is this what you offer me, a system of dishonesty
|
where life gets measured monetarily and I'm just another face.
|
Another man with the simple skills of staying alive and paying the bills
|
never amount to anything live and die where I've always been.
|
This is where I am at the bills still come no matter what.
|
I'm all grown up but still I'm going nowhere.
|
Uneducated though I graduated,
|
wish I would have been a little more dedicated
|
and got something out of school, instead of always playing the fool.
|
But even if I did for just one day, had all the right words that I wanted to say,
|
it wouldn't make a difference anyway cause no one's listening.
|
So save your words, just save your words cause I don't care anymore.
|
My father worked his life away in all those years
|
he never missed a day
|
there isn't anybody that could say he didn't keep his bills paid.
|
All that time he never got to do all the things in life that he wanted to.
|
He always kept his family fed by the blood and sweat he shed.
|
And for the sacrifice he's made this is how he gets repaid.
|
I'm all grown up but still I'm going nowhere.
