Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Alarm at six Still broke by ten Same old town Same dead end Boss man laughs Clock hits nine Says “be grateful” While he steals our time [Chorus] Life’s not fair, we learned that young Got kicked down, bit our tongue We’re done staying quiet, done staying small We’re gonna fight for our own Or we don’t live at all (hey!) [Verse 2] Bills stack up Like flyers on the wall “Dream big, kid” Then they watch you fall They sell hope On a payment plan I want more Than the back of the van [Chorus] Life’s not fair, we learned that young Got kicked down, bit our tongue We’re done staying quiet, done staying small We’re gonna fight for our own Or we don’t live at all (whoa-oh) [Bridge] I don’t want their plastic crown Their fake applause, their scripted town I want scraped knees, busted teeth Laughing in the cheap seats If this is all, then take it back I’d rather burn than fade to black (hey!) [Chorus] Life’s not fair, we learned that young Got kicked down, bit our tongue We’re done staying quiet, done staying small We’re gonna fight for our own Or we don’t live at all [Chorus] Life’s not fair, so raise that fist Name your dream, aim and miss Then get up bleeding, answer the call We’re gonna fight for our own Yeah, we want it all (we want it all)
