Eventually our resentment fills up
Just like a bucket that's placed under a leak
I don't know how long I can stay here
But I know that my patience is wearing thin
Middle cla** superstar
And a deadbeat running out of luck
Trying to compete with seven billion people
Always looking for shortcuts
Sorry mum, I don't know when I'll be home
But don't worry, If I have to I'll drag my broke a** home
I will lie if I have to, because I've been doing it my whole life
(welcome to modern days)
I'll ease the pain by smoking my dreams away
Eventually our resentment fills up
Just like a bucket that's placed under a leak
I don't know how long I can stay here
But I know that my patience is wearing thin
Survival of the fittest slaving away to buy sh**, they tell us that we want
It's a notion we're told our whole lives
And something about it just doesn't sit right
While you fight fire with fire, I'm walking on water
Experiment with pleasure, like Sodom and Gomorrah
I hate the fact that take the bait over and over and over... again
An endless supply of temptations, I guess I better grow a thicker skin
I will lie if I have to, because I've been doing it my whole life
(welcome to modern days)
I'll ease the pain by smoking my dreams away
Eventually our resentment fills up
Just like a bucket that's placed under a leak
I don't know how long I can stay here
But I know that my patience is wearing thin
Survival of the fittest slaving away to buy sh**, they tell us that we want
It's a notion we're told our whole lives
And something about it just doesn't sit right
