lyrics

The rocking chair we used to sit with
And sing lullabies in, still sits
In the room where we now reside and watch TV and kill our minds
Softly but surely you know we're doing the best that we can
You're paying rent paycheck to paycheck
Avoiding obstacles and paying off the debt that we owe to the school that we know
And to college, why did we need it?
Cause' if money can't buy happiness
Then could someone help me out cause I think that I'm doing this wrong

I don't want to settle
Settle in the middle like the rest of us
And I don't want for things to just be 'ok'
I wanted to be better than yesterday

But I can't see passed my own nose
My Ma and my Dad are the only ones who know
About this feeling, that I can't change
And that I am the only one I have to blame for the problems that I have
