Abba father

It's barely midday and I'm here shaking Shaking cause I've not had anything to eat And I'm here carrying heavy things around On an empty stomach.. The rent was due last month And we into a new month I'm yet to pay The landlord has me in he's radar now I can't go back home early, I'll get here late When he's already gone home Cause if he waits me by the door I'll have nothing to give him Cause I've not had anything given to me The heat is intense today My body is heating up I feel like I'll blow So I'm here panting, hoping to cool off Cause I'm out of air I couldn't keep working I'm hiding behind this pile of dirt Cause if the foreman saw me This would be my last day here at work And all that money would just go, I have to stay I never thought this is how life would roll out to be But it's been rolling and I'm rolling like a stone, that's lost course, I just keep going Hoping to hit a wall and maybe my mind would be at ease ......
