lyrics
Well he, sat right down and he bought a round. He said, “I hate to break it, but your generations fucked.” I said, “Tell me something, I didn’t know” He said’ “Alright son, It’s all your own damn fault. You’ve got the guts of a fledgeling chick, and about the guile of a six-foot talkin’ prick. When I was your age, we had our stake. We stood together and we weren’t afraid to...”
“Look in father’s eyes and say, ‘I wait for no man to realize I can do more than the ones who came before.’ We’ll kick down the door and seize all that we can get. Ain’t scared of failure, just regret.”
Well I gave him a shot and I took one too. I said, “What the fuck are we supposed to do? You sold our industry, for the conveniency of early retirement and one-stop-shopping. The only career left, is to collect each others debt. And I got a feeling they can outsource that too.” He said, “If you think things will fall apart ‘cause you forfeit your lot, you just don’t have the heart to...”
“Look in father’s eyes and say, ‘I wait for no man to realize I can do more than the ones who came before.’ We’ll kick down the door and seize all that we can get. Ain’t scared of failure, just regret.”
The next morning my head was spinning. Was this harsh judgement or a new beginning to see the bridle of our youth is all we’re entitled to? Just heirs to squander, if we can’t be bothered...
To look in father’s eyes and say, “I wait for no man to realize I can do more than the ones who came before.” We’ll kick down the door and seize all that we can get. Ain’t scared of failure, just regret. Regret.
