Take Your Life Back
At the red light on the bridge gettin on the highway there’s a man standin
there with a sign
I can’t read what it said cause he’s too far away
but if I had to guess I’d say it probably says
I will work for food
any donation will do
And I could use a little help from you
At first I got a little mad and under my breath I said man you’ve got to be
kiddin
It’s only Thursday and I already got my forty hours in
Tomorrow’s time and a half and Saturday’s double time
You’ve got to get yours buddy the same way that I got mine
Put down that cardboard
Pick up some slack
And take your life back
You don’t understand
Im goin to see my old man
At the US Department of VA
He’s doin chemo and radiation but in his younger years he fought for this land
and I know what he’d say if he saw me standin there today
holdin out my hand
At first he’d get a little mad and under his breath he’d say man you’ve got
to be kiddin
It’s only Thursday and I already got my forty hours in
Tomorrow’s time and a half and Saturday’s double time
You’ve got to get yours boy the same way that I got mine
Put down that cardboard
Pick up some slack
And take your life back
It’s easier to say than it is to do
But I wish you the best and I’m prayin for you
To get back on your feet and on the right track
You’re the only one that can
Take your life back
