Lyrics

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
