they'll tell you where you're going and how you have to get there
what they won't tell you is that you're working for pennies a day
and you'll work your life away so they can live their own they're at the top we're at the bottom fighting for our homes
i'm in for the long run i'm in for the day i'm in for the time, though people say "are you going to stay this way?" i'm in for the life that i choose to live if that makes me so unusual it makes everyone else look all the same (yeah)
the grass is always greener on the opposite side by the time you get there, you wish you hadn't half of the time
it seems so illogicial that we choose to hurt ourselves
but given the choice, you did what anyone would who was fighting for their home
i'm in for the long run i'm in for the day i'm in for the time, though people say "are you going to stay this way?" i'm in for the life that i choose to live if that makes me so unusual it makes everyone else look all the same (yeah)
(it makes them look the same)
well i guess i must be going i've got better things to do then sit around all day and hate the world
i guess i should be learning that wishes don't come true it takes a lot of work to just pull through
when you've had enough to make you quit you just have to keep holding on (holding on)
i'm in for the long run i'm in for the day i'm in for the time, though people say "are you going to stay this way?" i'm in for the life that i choose to live if that makes me so unusual it makes everyone else look all the same (yeah)
