[Verse 1]
Woke up late, phone on red
Cold coffee, bad text thread
Spilled my plans on the floor
Then the door stuck once more
I bit my tongue, held it in
You saw smoke, not where I been
Tried to play it cool for you
But my luck came unglued
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me why
Everything hits at once
Tell me why
I’m the one it comes for
I’m still here
Even when it bends
I’m still here
With my worn-out hands
[Chorus]
Life’s not fair today
Life’s not fair today
I’m still standing, baby
I’m still standing, baby
Life’s not fair today
Life’s not fair today
I took the hit, I stayed
I took the hit, I stayed
[Verse 2]
Bus ran past, let it go
Rain on the bag by my toe
Boss sent “urgent” with a frown
Like the whole world wanted downs
You said “breathe,” I said “try”
Caught my name in a hard goodbye
Still, I laughed through the break
Made a meal from the ache
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me why
Everything hits at once
Tell me why
I’m the one it comes for
I’m still here
Even when it bends
I’m still here
With my worn-out hands
[Chorus]
Life’s not fair today
Life’s not fair today
I’m still standing, baby
I’m still standing, baby
Life’s not fair today
Life’s not fair today
I took the hit, I stayed
I took the hit, I stayed
[Bridge]
Maybe the sky don’t care
Maybe the road don’t care
Maybe the world plays rough
Still, I’m tough enough
I shake it off, step back in
Dust on my shirt, fire in my skin
Not my day, not my end
Watch me rise again
[Chorus]
Life’s not fair today
Life’s not fair today
I’m still standing, baby
I’m still standing, baby
Life’s not fair today
Life’s not fair today
I took the hit, I stayed
I took the hit, I stayed
