THE SCARS
It’s hard to dream, when you’re just trying to stay alive
It’s hard to live, when you just wanna die
But it’s easy to waste this life wasted
When there is so much that you don’t want to remember
Like all the times they had a head start
And then they ask us why we’re so far behind
CHORUS
SEEMS LIKE YOU’RE VERY WELL FOCUSED
SEEMS LIKE YOU HAVE A LOT OF DRIVE
SEEMS LIKE YOU HAVE A LOT OF ENERGY
TO FOCUS ON MORE THAN JUST SURVIVE
They say they’re more gifted, more talented, more beautiful
They have it all, they’re such an inspiration
We just have the scars
Coz it’s a battle to keep living
It’s hard to succeed, when you’re just trying to survive
It’s hard to keep moving, when barriers are put in the way
It’s easy to worry that this life isn’t worth it
When there’s so much you wanna forget
Coz it’s easier to take risks if you’ve got money behind you
then they say you played it safe coz you tried to find stability.
You say it all happened for a reason,
Your privileged motivational speech
They say keep calm and carry on
and can you please stop bringing up this shit
coz it’s irrelevant to the struggle
we’ll work that one out after the revolution
But we struggle every single day
Like when we walk down the street and don’t feel safe
Or another friend confides in us and tells us they were raped
[I’m getting too used to hearing this shit]
Yeah we struggle every single day
We wait all month until it’s pay day
And when I check the bank, the money’s all been spent
It’s hard to stay focused, when you can’t afford the rent.
