Hit the road 3 years ago
Ain't goin' home 'til I got somethin' to show
It ain't easy, but it never gets old
I can't forget what I came here for
Oh, I think I need a sign
That what I'm doin' is right
Sometimes you're lucky, sometimes cynical
Everybody wants to know how to crack the code
You see, some answers are bought and sold
You know the truth but hear what you wanna be told
Oh, give me a reason why
You're sold the truth but buy the lie
You wear excuses like they're made of gold
Parade around in the emperor's new clothes
One day your chances will come and go
You and your excuses will be all alone
Oh, you're only half alive
With no reason to survive
So I'm giving up on giving up
Go out there and make my luck
I know you think I'm wasting my time
But you pay your bills and then you die
It ain't even worth the fight
So I gotta draw the line
I'll make my peace and then I'll go
I might fail but you'll never know
How far I got leaving you behind
And you'll make up the reasons why
It was never worth a try
Blame what's wrong instead of doing what's right
So I'm giving up on giving up
I'm out here to make my luck
To make this moment mine
I'll pay my dues and do my time
Whatever it takes, I will fight
Gotta know that I tried
