Whole Wheat Bread - Every Man For Himself lyrics

We're all alone in this world, so save yourself No one can hear your voice, don't waste your breath You fall behind and no one will stay to help you Your lady luck ain't got no patience left She said you've been programmed to fail the test Around your age, that was the way I felt, too But there comes a time when a man earns his stripes But no badge of honor is worth his life Don't take no sh** Don't take no sh** Can't move along when you're right here, standing by Asking yourself "What kind of man am I?" None of these thoughts will help you pa** the time through You've got dreams, but you can't just fantasize Sitting around like your a** is paralyzed You gotta move even when you can't decide to Cuz there comes a time when a man earns his stripes But no badge of honor is worth his life And every long day must soon turn to night So go get what's yours, you deserve what's right Don't take no sh** Don't take no sh** Nobody waits for you to catch your breath At 21, it's every man for himself It's every man for himself We're all alone in this world, so save yourself No one can hear your voice, don't waste your breath You fall behind and no one will stay to help you
