I Don'T Kow Why We Do It
i dont know why we do it
but we deal with this lifs everyday
even though the shoes dont fit
we wear them anyway
the peer pressure from co workers and bosses
the stress of just going to work
yet still youre just taken losses
and thats the part that hurts
the world is trying to cheastize you
break you if it can
people constantly mock you
to make you feel less a man
but we except these things
and try to continue on
getting walked over and stepped on
yet we're always in the wrong
we do all we can to keep our head high
knowing they'll try to rip us down
but we all must break down and cry
when no-one else is around
soceity knows what its doing
making you do things you really hate
and they forget youre only human
you're allowed to make mistakes
no-one's life is a perfect ten
so we do our best to get thru it
feeling that we will never fit in
so i dont know why we do it
