Are you going through a hard time? Do you feel emptiness and pain Like me? It's okay We are human beings Here hold my hand We will not break We will fight on We remain unbroken We are poor We are tired We are searching Searching for meaning Searching for something Oh this life This life Somebody should have told me I am learning for myself Are you seeing like me Seeing how hard it can be? I am more More than just a body I am not a materialist We are fighting We are fighting We are fighting I am fighting I am poor And as hard as I have studied As much as I have studied I still can't find a job We are fighting Don't stop fighting And why do I breath heavy like this? It must be life that weighs heavy on me Still Still I do not want pills Or Sympathy Just more hard times Get up, get up! We are still here We are still Fighting This is earth We are strong We will not break We will not break I went to college Then I got a credential Still no job Still no job Almost 30, still no job These dollars are practically worthless! Quantitative easing The Fed What a miserable institution Printing more and more Hyper inflation Worthless American dollars Let's be strong Let's get strong They cannot break They will not break the iron will The iron will Forged in fires Of endless hours alone The emptiness alone alone There was no one No one Just some hope or something Something that no one can **** I am man!!!!!!! This is earth!!!!!!!!!!!! I am not a super soldier My body ages My weak frail human body Work out Again and again Again and again Are you poor like me Do you look for love But you can't find it? People can be terrible Forget them You are still here Still here and still fighting You cannot take that away Say your name! I am Matt Almost 30 earth years Motherf***** Come on!!!!!!! I'm ready for more pain More emptiness I'm ready I am ready I will not break Spinning earth spins round and round Human bodies go up and down It's a crazy *** place I try to do what is right To be good I show love to people Are you like me? I am earth man I am earth man I will not fear I do not fear I keep the times I keep the times I am the keeper
