You.
You try.
You try to get by.
“You're never going to pull it off”
“You shouldn't even try”
“You're a wet cigarette”
“You're always second best”
But they're never going to give a shit about anybody but themselves.
So you fight.
For them to realize.
There's more to life there's more to you there's more than meets the eye.
And when you're done, the battle's been won.
You sit back you smile and this is what you hum, you hum:
Whoa
Whoa
…12341234…
You.
You try.
You try to get by.
“You're never going to pull it off”
“You shouldn't even try”
“You're a wet cigarette”
“You're always second best”
And they're never going to give a shit about anybody but themselves.
You fight.
For them to realize.
There's more to life there's more to you there's more than meets the eye.
And when you're done, the battle's been won.
You sit back you smile and this is what you hum, you hum:
Whoa

The years go by.
The time it does fly.
Every single second is a moment in time that passes oh, so quick and it seems like nothing but when you're looking back well it amounts to everything.
I've got myself.
I've got my friends.
I've got my little family but that's not where it ends.
This one goes out to you.
It goes out to everyone.
It's in the name of honesty because life has just begun
Whoa
Whoa
…12341234…
Look around little brother can you tell me what you see?
You're a big boy now so take responsibility.
You never had it hard but now it's getting tough so you whine whine whine and you say you've had enough.
You say I'm full of shit?
That I'm a hypocrite?
I shouldn't talk when I can't take the advice that I give?
Well maybe you're right but open your eyes:
The main difference here is that I try try try.
Whoa
Whoa
…12341234…
Whoa
Whoa
…1234…
