Hunger

(album: New Strength - 2015)

I can't take it
Yet I try not to admit
My lack of action
My refusal to commit is dangerous
I'll put it off I say
I'll wait until another day
But just remember
There are dogs out there who are always hungry

Looking to get their fill
When you slow down they won't
That success. Hard earned sweat
Becomes someone else's meal

So keep your head down and work it out
Think it through. Time to choose
If you're left. Wishing you'd tried more
Are you where you wanted?
Instead of being haunted
By maybes and questions of doubts asking what if?
Don't waste your time, don't even rethink it

The world won't wait for you
So you gotta do what you do
The world won't wait for you
So you gotta do what you've gotta do

No one will wait for you

Caught in between
Reality and my own dreams
I see where I want to be
Just seems I never know how to get there

Forget your sense of entitlement
Complain. Expect. But won't work for shit
Waste away I could give a fuck less
I'd rather earn it
I'd rather die than be useless

So keep your head down and work it out
Think it through. Time to choose
If you're left. Wishing you'd tried more
Are you where you wanted?
Instead of being haunted
By maybes and questions of doubts asking what if?
Don't waste your time, don't even rethink it

If every dog has his day then where's mine?
Keep my head up but life won't let up
Won't hope for better days, work 'til they come my way
Won't hope for better days, work 'til they come my way
