[Verse 1] They tell me work hard, then they cut my check, S…
[Verse 1]
They tell me work hard, then they cut my check,
Say chase my dreams, but they stack my debt.
They preach real love, then they lie and cheat,
Say stand up strong, but they hold my feet.
[Chorus]
Make it make sense, I don’t understand,
They change the rules, then they change the plan.
Tell me one thing, then do the next,
Talk about peace, but they bring more stress.
[Verse 2]
They sell you hope, then tax your soul,
Promise you gold, then hand you coal.
Say stay in school, get that degree,
But now that paper ain’t setting you free.
[Bridge]
Work twice as hard, just to get half,
Make one mistake, now they hold you back.
I keep my head high, gotta break through,
If they won’t change, then I make my moves.
[Outro]
So I stack my wins, flip my pain,
Turn these losses into gain.
If they won’t change, I’ll take my shot,
Make it make sense or make it stop!
