Blue Collar Dreams

Out here in the shadows, I rise with the dawn,

Hard hats, our battle gear, and the world feels drawn.

Sweat on my brow—the price that I pay,

In this blue collar life, it never goes my way.

Punch that clock, feel the rhythm, the grind,

Making ends meet, leaving my dreams behind.

Every day’s a struggle, but I carry my weight,

With calloused hands and heart, it’s never too late.

But when the stars align, and the moon’s shining bright,

I find my peace in the whispers of night.

Hope ignites in the flicker of stars,

Reaching out for a life that's surely ours.

This blue collar life, where the moments are gold,

With stories untold, in the heat or the cold.

Dreaming of a world where we rise everyday,

Fighting for a future, even when the odds sway.

Worn-out boots, down the same dusty road,

Carrying my pride, it’s heavy, it’s bold.

Neighbors unite, raising voices so loud,

In every heartbeat, I’m part of this crowd.

Carrying my pride, it’s heavy, it’s bold.

Neighbors unite, raising voices so loud,

In every heartbeat, I’m part of this crowd.

Oh, but when the sun sets, and the shadows grow long,

We hold on to dreams, we know we belong.

Chasing the light, we won't fade away,

In the blue collar life, tomorrow’s a new play.

This blue collar life, where the moments are gold,

With stories untold, in the heat or the cold.

Dreaming of a world where we rise everyday,

Fighting for a future, even when the odds sway.

We'll find a way, through the trials we face,

Rising like smoke in a weary old place.

And in the struggle, we learn how to stand,

With hope's gentle whisper, we’ll make our own land.

So here’s to the battles, the scars we all share,

In this blue collar life, there's love everywhere.

Together we'll rise, spirited and brave,

For a brighter tomorrow, we’re digging the grave.

Oh, in this blue collar life, we grow through the fray,

With grit in our hearts, we’ll carve out our way.
