lyrics

The work ain’t never gonna end
This is not a fight that you can win
Got 25 more years of this
But the very day you call it quits
They’ll find someone else to take your shift
Then you’ll know what your value really is

Walk the same route every day
To the bus eleven blocks away
To a job that barely even pays
A job that keeps you stuck in place
In a life you never planned to make
That barely even flickers before it fades

Promises of better times
That never materialize
You lead a palindrome life
Your dreams economy-sized
Your daily ritual sacrifice
Makes you wonder why you even try

The work ain’t never gonna end
This is not a fight that you can win
This is the real dream American
