lyrics

Uphill

I’ve been out too late
I’ve been up to long
I’ve been stretched too thin
And the list goes on
Beaten and sore and my shoes souls been warn
Tattered jeans are not far from the norm

Too long it’s been that it’s been for love
That a job working hard can fit like a glove
So I say why waste my time being told what to do
I can’t live my life just hanging on a cue

Well the wind picks up and the fire gets bright
Burning my candle from both ends every day and night
In a funk or a phase a rut if you will
I still can’t find my way out when I’m fighting uphill

You can’t pay enough money to buy yourself some more time
Yeah you feel like you’re balanced on top of a land mind
Where any second it can go and with it so do you
Make you think a little harder about the things you do
