So long ago the lines were drawn
People on the corner 'cause the jobs all gone
Money making deadly dreams
Two dollar hustles, million dollar schemes
Driftin' through the usual routine
Caught in the red tape searchin' for the green
Money making no respect
Tired of living check to check
Fear is taking over so watch over your shoulder
As the hour draws closer
If we can make it there, there's gotta be a way somehow
If we can make it there, then we should do it now
Through our darkest days and endless nights
I can't find my way, but I can see, I can see the light
Been looking for a better way
Seeking out the want ads nearly every day
No mission, man, don't need advice
So sick of eating on these beans and rice
Still driftin' through the usual routine
Caught in the red tape searchin' for the green
Money making no respect
Tired of living check to check
Fear is taking over so watch over your shoulder
As the hour draws closer
If we can make it there, there's gotta be a way somehow
If we can make it there, then we should do it now
Through our darkest days and endless nights
I can't find my way, but I can see, I can see the light
I know I've been here before
Waiting on the wrong side of the door
Feels like day after day
Questions linger in my mind
Got me feeling left behind
Feel I'm driftin' away
If we can make it there, there's gotta be a way somehow
If we can make it there, then we should do it now
If we can make it there through our darkest days and endless nights
I can't find my way, but I can see, I can see the light (repeat)
People on the corner 'cause the jobs all gone
Money making deadly dreams
Two dollar hustles, million dollar schemes
Driftin' through the usual routine
Caught in the red tape searchin' for the green
Money making no respect
Tired of living check to check
Fear is taking over so watch over your shoulder
As the hour draws closer
If we can make it there, there's gotta be a way somehow
If we can make it there, then we should do it now
Through our darkest days and endless nights
I can't find my way, but I can see, I can see the light
Been looking for a better way
Seeking out the want ads nearly every day
No mission, man, don't need advice
So sick of eating on these beans and rice
Still driftin' through the usual routine
Caught in the red tape searchin' for the green
Money making no respect
Tired of living check to check
Fear is taking over so watch over your shoulder
As the hour draws closer
If we can make it there, there's gotta be a way somehow
If we can make it there, then we should do it now
Through our darkest days and endless nights
I can't find my way, but I can see, I can see the light
I know I've been here before
Waiting on the wrong side of the door
Feels like day after day
Questions linger in my mind
Got me feeling left behind
Feel I'm driftin' away
If we can make it there, there's gotta be a way somehow
If we can make it there, then we should do it now
If we can make it there through our darkest days and endless nights
I can't find my way, but I can see, I can see the light (repeat)
