about

Fewer things have brought me down like rent being due and only having $15. I'm sure y'all can relate.

lyrics

The sun clocks out the same time I do
Another day where I’ve barely pulled through
Praise the grind and say amen

Breaking every last traffic rule
In a car that I’ve had since high school
I scrape by just like I did back then…

…if not even more…

I drag myself to straight to work then crawl the whole way back home
Our folks said it’ll be worth it some day
“Stay positive”, you’ll say, while my balance is negative
Life feels like one big loan you’ll never pay

A rainy day fund in the closet,
I had to take out and deposit
Because when it rains, it pours

The faucet leaks water with some weird grime
The landlord says he’ll fix it some time
By the way, rent is going up a little more

What do I even pay him for?

I drag myself to straight to work then crawl the whole way back home
Our folks said it’ll be worth it some day
“Stay positive”, you’ll say, while my balance is negative
Life is just one big loan you’ll never pay

Is this all life has in store?
Nothing to look forward to anymore
I don’t know how much more I can take

I’ve pulled myself up by my bootstraps
Then I’m knocked down, left with only scraps
I’ve never felt more hopeless than today

I could just

Drag myself up the stairs and never go down again
but my boss says someone just called in
I could use the extra cents, it’s better than none at all
What’s a little more when you’re already stretched thin?

I drag myself to straight to work then crawl the whole way back home
Just have to get through one more day
“Stay positive”, you’ll say, I’m back in the negatives
Is this all that is left for the rest of my days?

I guess this is all there is for the rest of my days
