lyrics

Y'know it's a God damn shame
In this modern world we live in, we've come this far
We've made leaps and bounds
And we're still nothing more than glorified fuckin' monkeys

You see somebody that looks different than you
That thinks differently than you do
That has a different opinion
A different point-of-view
And you automatically wanna assume that that's somehow a threat to your life

And it doesn't have to be
And it shouldn't be

What the fuck is wrong with y'all people?

You do you... let me do me
What is wrong with that?
Why is that so hard to wrap your minds around?

And that goes for everybody.

Everybody.

Times are real fucked up now
Worse than they been before
Some say things'll get better
for the uneducated and poor

Fighting a whole new war for ignorance
And the best that I can do
Is to keep on livin' my way
Lord, I'm just trying to make it through

Trying to make it best as I can
Try to make it through

Trying to make it one day at a time
Try to make it through

Put in my hours down at the factory
and hear people bitch and moan
'Bout the God damn liberal pussies
trying to take everything they own

And I gotta say it's kinda funny-
They think they government's trying to take our guns
But in eight years under Obama
he didn't ask me for a single one

Now I ain't sayin' he was perfect-
You see, the man wasn't even close
But what's standing in his place right now
is less than a fucking joke

It ain't the party that bothers me-
It's the backwards fuckin' shit
And the man wants to do away with folks
who don't think just like him

People livin' in fear
of having families torn away
People just trying to make a living
like I'm doing right here today

Trying to feed our families
Trying to love our wives
And people put him in power...
How could you be so blind?

Think he really cares about you?
Think he really gives a shit?
When all you heard him say
was "Make America Great Again"?

And I'm livin' in a world of fear now
And the best that I can do
is to keep livin' life my way-
Lord, I'm just trying to make it through

Trying to make it best as I can
Try to make it through

Four more years
oh God damn

Try to make it best as I can
Try to make it through
