Lyrics

He hates the fact that you need money to live You need money to make a living You need money to pay the bills And that the world revolves around money Why can't he just make a life out of music and doing what he loves Why does that one stupid thing hold him back from seeking his potential He's terribly unhappy with his job (He hates it) He just wants to walk in and say (I quit) He don't wanna work your spreadsheets anymore Because he's tired of answering your calls And being confined to your four walls And punching time clocks over and over again But still he keeps on Keeps on fighting And they can't see him coming They think all he has is a silly song to sing But still he keeps on keeps on fighting No matter where he's going It ain't easy to share all his vulnerabilities Plain old Jane works the counter all day Serving coffee, tea, and pies With a baby on the way She contemplates her life But she don't get a dime Workin' overtime The world she'll never know Hoping one day she'll find a place to make home But still she keeps on keeps on livin' And they can't understand That she has hopes and she has dreams But still she keeps on keeps on livin' And one day That dream will finally become her reality I don't wanna be Living this misery I've been stuck in for all of this time I'll stand on my own So tall cause I've outgrown Those boundaries you've locked me in Oh Oh Oh But still we keep on keep on fighting and they can't Understand that we have hopes and we have dreams But still we keep on keep on livin' and one day That dream will finally become reality
