Lyrics
[Intro]

My life, my life

I've been fighting it all my life

My life, oh, my life

Been fighting it all my life

[Verse 1] I'm a father, I'm a fighter, I am tough

It's not the working for the peanuts it's rough

It's not the sending every dime home

They denied every time loan

It was all the other stuff

The hold-down, the run-around

The stack, the deck

I'm not working you, before a different colored check

[Pre-Chorus]

Damn you my impeder in me

I am a believer

Despite your spike belts, I will not be slowed

[Chorus]

I know there's no easy roads

I know there's no easy roads

[Post-Chorus]

Easy roads, easy roads, there are no easy roads

[Verse 2]

I'm white, I'm middle-class, embarrassed

I got bad luck when it comes to parents

If you're white, you might meet them

Think they're a-ok

Or of another mother, brother, KKK

I felt like a human barcode, programmed to hate mode

Seventeen years old, solo I must go

[Chorus]

I know there's no easy roads (No easy roads)

I know there's no easy roads (No easy roads)

[Bridge]

My life, my life

I've been fighting it all my life

My life, oh, my life

Been fighting it all my life

[Verse 3]

I said I'm tired and I'm sick

You're a liar full of shit

It's the same old shtick

And I just can't support this

Slammed down the phone, never felt more alone

Single mother, shipped adrift with a toddler on my hip

Begging for a greyhound trim

I don't need you to mention to me

You see the tension in me

I know it, I own it, I hold it

This poker hand to fold it

I'm starting to feel the gravity of three mouthfuls of cavities

Could somebody help me please?

[Outro]

My life, my life

I've been fighting it all my life

My life, oh, my life

Been fighting it all my life
