Work Hard

lyrics

Verse One:
Its been 11 weeks, I ain’t coming down from this high called life
I don't get to sleep, cos i never let an opportunity fly right by
They say its destiny, they say these stars all born and then they die in the sky.
But this ain’t meant to be, cos if it was then i’d slack off and bide my time.
Till I'm gone at four in the morning. I got a gig in sydney with V.S supporting.
We close man I've seen this before but now ill never let the industry control my recordings.
smoked weed for so long, my vision was clouded.
my friends all left me, i left my girl, my world yet still feel so surrounded.
This is so surreal, I'm broke got evicted out my house sleeping on a friends couch
now by word of mouth I'm out playing to crowds middle finger up to whoever did doubt me
living out my bag, on the road to a show, but still crowded by sinners around me.
so i tick the list off, to get my dick sucked in the bathroom stall with enough drink to drown me.
i just want to see the world, maybe take you with me .
come on tell me girl, whats your favourite city.
ill buy the flights right now just can you make me a promise, honest
wait till the lights die down, I can’t believe that i got this goddess.

Bridge:
Got it, Got it, Good.
Like I’ve Got it, Got it, Good.
You might think that i don’t got it, 
but i know i work hard for the money. 

Repeat Bridge x3. 

Chorus: 
You don't wanna win. 
because if you did then i know you’d work harder
You don't wanna win.
i know that you think i should open my heart up.

You don't wanna win.
i march on your walls and I'm bringing an army. 
i do this for them when i sit in the darkness
getting my pain out just to bring to the party.


Verse Two:
I stare at the sun,
the day it has just begun,
i am the one
look what i have overcome,
no way my moment is done 
i wont succumb
to playing Russian roulette with a gun
to my head and let them go focus the bunt.
I've been sewing the seems to my place
in the scene no way is it coming undone.
ill die on the front of the battle as long as the war it is won.
I Won’t start falling for none. 
I think my calling has come,
to find this they keep calling it love woh.
i can keep fucking this up,
did once did it twice and now i am done. 
no re run, no said now i am done.





Chorus:

I know that you think i need to work harder
i know that you think i should open my heart up. 
March on your walls and I'm bringing an army. 
getting my pain out to bring to the party.


Verse Three: 
My Ex-Girl just said I'm the loneliest guy that she know’s
I looked up to a room full of friends and she was right i felt alone. 
So, why do i feel that way? How do i heal that pain?
Tell me why my wrists all scared
and I'm asking the question
asking the question like when will it change?
I feel sick, so i smoke 6 cigarettes and a spliff just to calm my nerves.
i take a sip of the drink that i mixed with these pills, take a hit so i know that the paint wont hurt. 
blaze that herb to get faded, see lately it just makes it worse 
i just put words in a sentence hit the booth and god i just pray that it works. 

I just pray this works, i just pray that it works.
