Raise a Glass

(Verse 1)

Yeah, I'm tired of the bullshit,

Every day the same old grind,

Breaking my back for a pat on the ass,

But all you do is whine.

You think the grass is greener,

On the other side of the street,

But babe, you don't see the fire,

Behind this heart that never skips a beat.

(Pre-Chorus)

I’m not just a number,

Not some trophy on your shelf,

I’m giving all I have,

But you won’t even look at me,

You’re building your throne,

But babe, I’m feeling small,

Let’s flip the script tonight,

And I’ll show you through it all.

(Chorus)

So raise a glass to the men, who work their hands to the bone,

Tired of being taken for granted, and left to fight alone.

You don’t see the struggle, you don’t feel the pain,

We’re not your damn heroes, so what’s in it for us to gain?

(Verse 2)

You moan about the little things,

While I carry the weight of the world,

Stop acting like I’m just a king,

In this land of pearls and swirls.

Yeah, I’m screaming loud, but you don’t hear,

Caught up in your selfish game,

I’m more than just your shoulder,

Not just a boy to blame.

(Pre-Chorus)

I’m not just a number,

Not some trophy on your shelf,

I’m giving all I have,

But you won’t even look at me,

You’re building your throne,

But babe, I’m feeling small,

Let’s flip the script tonight,

And I’ll show you through it all.

(Chorus)

So raise a glass to the men, who work their hands to the bone,

Tired of being taken for granted, and left to fight alone.

You don’t see the struggle, you don’t feel the pain,

We’re not your damn heroes, so what’s in it for us to gain?

(Bridge)

(All the late nights lost, while you sleep so sound)

(I'm busting my ass, but you don't care to look around)

We’re fragile but we’re strong, and we wanna be known,

For the love and the fight, but we’re stuck on our own.

(Chorus)

So raise a glass to the men, who work their hands to the bone,

Tired of being taken for granted, and left to fight alone.

You don’t see the struggle, you don’t feel the pain,

We’re not your damn heroes, so what’s in it for us to gain?

(Outro)

Yeah, I’m done with the silence,

It's time for the world to change,

Men deserve the love too,

Let’s break free from this cage.

So don’t take us for granted,

We’re not just here to keep score,

Stand up and recognize,

We’re worth so much more!
