Broke and Hungry

I’m gonna die broke and hungry.

The fire inside is barely a little smoke.

It died the day I knew I’d be always broke.

Oh what a joke.

Yeah.

Learned my first lesson when I was just a kid.

You’re born with money or you’ll be chasing it

And never win.

Yeah.

America talks big, like

Everybody’s got a fair shot. Yeah right.

I’m tired and depleted.

I’m totally defeated.

I’m gonna die broke and hungry.

The lottery ain’t doing anybody charity.

Been struck by lighting twice, but never won a thing.

Lucky me.

Shit.

Hollywood talks big game

Like anyone could access wealth and fame.

I’m tired and depleted.

I’m totally defeated.

I’m gonna die broke and hungry.

I’m just a simpleton

Trying to get a win.

Begging for crumbs,

‘Cause scraps are out of the question.

Shit, I’ll take anything

I don’t know how to get through this.

I’m just a simpleton

Trying to get a win.

Everyone talks real cheap,

Working hard and saying “it’s gonna be me”

‘Till they’re tired, depleted, exploited, defeated.

We’re gonna die broke and hungry.

We’re tired, defeated, exploited, defeated.

We’re gonna die broke and hungry.
