Cause life is hard

Going down through these years I don't know why I got to try
why can't I close my eyes and tell life good-bye
these bumps and these bruise are going to take me down
but I hope someday I find some stable ground
cause life is hard

Every time open my eyes I see life is hard
getting tired of these rich kids screaming out I'm bored
throwing money in random place like tonka toys

getting mad at mom because they can't take charge

and that's why, going down through these years I don't know why I got try
why can't I close my eyes and tell life good-bye
these bumps and these bruise are going to take me down
but I hope someday I find some stable ground
cause life is hard

weep weep, sleep sleep, my life is the same
toting one of these burdens can bring the rain
is this for real or is this a game
why I feel like everyday someone is messing with my brain
doing this on purpose and causing pain
O lord please help me cause I can't maintain

that's why, Going down through these years I don't know why I got to try
why can't I close my eyes and tell life good-bye
these bumps and these bruise are going to take me down
but I hope someday I find some stable ground
cause life is hard

O man I'm kind of confused
why are you in my face telling me life can change
then running to your office in the sky "screaming all she needs is brains"
yea I'm foolish but I got it from you
all I need is a few chances so I can achieve too
but until then, I know that

Going down through these years I don't know why I got to try
why can't I close my eyes and tell life good-bye
these bumps and these bruise are going to take me down
but I hope someday I find some stable ground
cause life is hard
