[Verse 1]
I used to love excuses then I realized they play no part
In real life that's conducive to the dream which I work hard
To bring fruition, to finish in good light
And the laziness behind me wasted all my precious time

[Chorus 1]
I wasted all my precious time
Then I realized I'm not looking for happiness
I'm looking for work

[Refrain]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

[Verse 2]
Check under the mats, behind the doors, and in-between
The alleyways and gutters that proclaim our lives less clean
If you're looking you won't find it so it's best to be content
With the shortcomings and fallouts we now look back and resent

[Chorus 2]
Oh, and I resent
When I realize I'm not looking for happiness
I'm looking for worth
