Same thing, different day
Don a face, keep pace
Same thing, different day
Till dusk, get your pay
The air is hot, dry and scathing
I was once hydrated and fit
My sprint turned to saunter
Destitute and sick of it
Take your time, finish it
Seems like nothing, nothing can grow here
Step by step, move towards the ending
Find cloud 9, ready for landing
Same thing, different day
Don a face, keep pace
Same thing, different day
Till dusk, get your pay
This wasn't supposed to happen
Magic carpet dragged from under me
Doubt set in and dug its heels in
Stuck to the ground, left wondering
Who's to blame but myself
The institution, a combination of few
One and only one, questions are many
No oasis in sight, no vision friendly
Take your time, finish it
Seems like I'm not, I'm not alone here
Hand in hand, run with the living
Just in time, simply outstanding
Take your time, finish it
Seems like I fought, fought for my home here
Drop by drop, quenching the thirst
Making the best of what was the worst
