Em
These warehouse wages 
Kill the ends introduction 
I should have schooled it up 
When I was younger should have stuck to plan 
Am
Always had the dreams of being more self assertive 
And my kids a teenager he needs the health insurance 
 Em
So break my body 
Break break my soul down 
Just another zombie walking blindly through your ghost town 
Am
Pull up to the bar to politic and tap the power 
Ain't nobody all that jolly at your happy hour 
Em
But I don't want to go home yet 
So imam talk to my cigarette 
And that television set 
Am
It doesn't matter what brand or station 
Anything to take away from the current situation 
Em
No overtime pay no holiday 
Months behind on everything but the lottery 
Am
Inter 'round the corner guaranteeing that my car dies 
Wifey having trouble juggling both the part times 
Em
My cup ain't close to filled up 
We trying to build up so we can have enough 
     Am
And when I finally get the color 
There won't be nothing left to paint on 
My friend tried to kill himself to the same song 

Em Am Em Am 

      Em
My better half is mad at making magic out of canned goods 
My tax bracket status got her questioning my man hood 
Am
My shorty got caught smoking weed at a concert 
And if I smack em everybody treats me like a monster 
Em
My neighbors ain't doing much better 
And we making competition instead of sticking together 
Am
Can't save no nest egg in fact this nest is rented 
In fact that rent is late wait 
Em
The money ain't here the raise ain't coming 
Just me and my son and that crazy woman 
Am
And those bartenders this whole f**king country 
Got everybody swallowing that lunch meat 
Em
Maybe we can speed up the process 
Kill me in my thirties in the name of progress 
Am
Put me in the dirt and then change the topic 
Some time it seems like the only way to stop it 
Em
Contemplate my departure date 
Doesn't take a lot to get a lot of us to talk this way 
Am
Take a shot at me thats all i'm obligated for 
Apparently my only guarantee is a walk away 

 Em                                 Am
The only guarantee in life is a life worth dying for 
 Em                                 Am
The only guarantee in life is a life worth dying for 
   Em
Cause death don't wait for no one 
               Am
Sitting on your front door 
 Em                                 Am
The only guarantee in life is a life worth dying for 
   Em
Cause death don't wait for no one
