# I may get drunk every once in awhile # I may raise hell, that's just my style # # I work hard everyday, make them rich I don't complain # While they sail their boats and they fly their jets # They can break us down but we ain't broke yet # # Pay attention, or you'll miss this # You're my witness, are you listening? # # You can take my house, I don't need it # Take my ride, you can keep it # But I'm alive and I'm still breathing # You can't take away my pride # # We ain't alone, it's easy to hide # Life ain't fair, but we ain't gonna die # # You can wait for change or hold your breath # You can waste your time but we ain't dead yet # They can race their cars, they can place their bets # They can break us down but we ain't broke yet # # Pay attention or you'll miss this # You're my witness, are you listening? # # You can take my house, I don't need it # Take my ride, you can keep it # But I'm alive and I'm still breathing # You can't take away my pride # # I ain't breaking, I ain't bleeding # I ain't wasting another minute # I've been praying, I ain't shaking # You can't take away my pride # # You only lose when you stop believing # I got my friends and we ain't leaving # # You can take my house, I don't need it # Take my ride, you can keep it # But I'm alive and I'm still breathing # You can't take away my pride # # I ain't breaking, I ain't bleeding # I ain't wasting another minute # I've been praying, I ain't shaking # You can't take away my pride # # You can take my house, I don't need it # Take my ride, you can keep it # Everything's going to be alright, my pride
