[Chorus]
I've been sellin' my soul
Workin' all day
Overtime hours
For bullshit pay
So I can sit out here
And waste my life away
Drag back home
And drown my troubles away
It's a damn shame
What the world's gotten to
For people like me
And people like you
Wish I could just wake up
And it not be true
But it is
Oh it is

[Verse 1]
So many years of ignoring the truth
So many tears, I let go on this booth
I'm drinking this beer and I'm doing these drugs
Just to numb all this pain
I don't know what to do
It's not just me
Only you and I know that I've been so in debt that I'm suicidal
I'm so used to being used
That I don't use my head and instead I just use the bottle
Put in so many hours we'll never get back
Just to collect this check that they turn into tax
Maybe next time our kids show up to class
You teach them the truth and they learn about that
We carry this country, it's hurtin' our backs
The goverment fucks us, we're working for scraps
No matter what, we're determined to crash
Let's purge for a purpose and earn it all back
They'll make you a promise, then let you down
Plus, these countries are run by some pedophiles
And me I refuse to just sit around
While they're teaching our children this shit out loud
They told us to shut up and wear a mask
Just take this vaccine it'll take care of that
On this highway to hell, I've been there and back
I can't fit all this shit in a paragraph
Fuck 'em!

[Chorus]
I've been sellin' my soul
Workin' all day
Overtime hours
For bullshit pay
So I can sit out here
And waste my life away
Drag back home
And drown my troubles away
It's a damn shame
What the world's gotten to
For people like me
And people like you
Wish I could just wake up
And it not be true
But it is
Oh it is

[Verse 2]
They supply us the drugs that are killing our kids
Then we do nothing 'bout it, it is what it is
I'm not sorry, I'm seriously sick of this shit
I just packed up and moved, now I live in the sticks
Thanks to big pharma we get withdrawal
Then the whole world is hooked on this fentanyl
Be careful or you might be dead tomorrow
Yeah, we're working away at their back and call
If they saw this they'd tell you that this is a stretch
But why are we letting 'em get in our heads
How is there veterans livin' in tents
Cause the cycle has proven to bring us to death
Like, what is the reason we waited this long to admit this is all population control
Take one look around, this shit's taking its toll
But I'm saying fuck it, I'm breaking the mold
I promise I'm not being passive-aggressive
I'm actually fed up, I'm passing a message
I'm tryin' to say that they have an agenda, and we just ignore all the facts that they give us
Indigenous women go missing, and what?
We supposed to ignore it and sit on our thumbs?
It's not 'bout the left or the right or the middle
I'm going to war, I will not keep it civil
Fuck that!

[Chorus]
I've been sellin' my soul
Workin' all day
Overtime hours
For bullshit pay
So I can sit out here
And waste my life away
Drag back home
And drown my troubles away
It's a damn shame
What the world's gotten to
For people like me
And people like you
Wish I could just wake up
And it not be true
But it is
Oh it is
