Stress the silent killer
Strapped for cash it always seems
Unpaid notice from biller
Repossessed, foreclosed and liens
Days of paranoid waking
Job, your kids, the homestead- health
Don't realize why you're quaking
Balancing act takes real stealth
The bill collectors calling
Day and night relentless rings
Repetitive thoughts, stalling
Heart palpitations it brings
Running wild are kids and wife
Brats- no control, spouse spending
To what do I owe this life?
For certain nightmares pending
I have a job, work all day
But look where it has got me..
Bust my **** for little pay
I'm trying, can not you see?
Take the car, shut off the lights
No water to shower there
Toll of stress will reach new heights
The level beyond repair
This whole **** world needs a change
Added stress we just can't bear
To the docs if you don't rearrange
Government ***** said it.....there
