Well, I don't typically write lyrics. Mostly because I can't write and there usually isn't inspiration for me. But I'm going through an angry and frustrating time right now so I tried my hand at it. This one was pretty much for my parents and anyone else who it sounds like it could pertain to.

Feel free to tear it apart, tell me it sucks, or just tell me that you hate me all together because I'm ugly. But here it is anyways.


All for nothin

8 to 3
the daily routine
Dickin off and learnin nothing
All week long
An oblivious trance
Supposed to be here for something

And so it goes
All the wasted years
They say strive for excellence
Give blood sweat and tears
So I sit here now without a clue
No way this bull **** was really true

Off to the "real world"
Warned through our years
Prepare for adulthood
Responsibility nears
Go to college
Get yourself a degree
Earn some fruit
From the money tree

And so it goes
All the wasted years
They say strive for excellence
Give blood sweat and tears
So I sit here now without a clue
No way this bull **** was really true

No money
No job
I'm a peasant still
The promised land lies
Just over the hill
So don't bitch at me now
While I'm still in my youth
Or its all for nothin
Still searching for truth...
Let your soul shine. Its better than sunshine. Its better than moonshine. Damn sure better than rain.
