Moments I feel weak
I work and work
Feel so busy it's hard to speak
Everywhere I turn
Feels like a block
I've got to do, no time for talk
But at the end of the day
There's an ache in my chest
There's so much time I was to invest
In better causes but this is where I'mleft
Broke down by some stooge dressed in anStructure vest
I want to beat you so bad, I'll find away
I don't give up that easy, just wont betoday
There's room in this world for honestbusiness
It's what my grandpa believed in,
That honorable feeling never goes outof season

I'll wake up one day
Walls will shatter like glass
I'll get up and everything will be ingrasp
I'll have good workers that get paidwell
Mothers can allow their kids out oftheir shell
They can raise them at home instead ofa daycare
Way better than the present whichsometimes is more than I can bear.
