Woke up this morning at a quarter to nope
Sat up on the bed with a little less hope
That today would be different than any other day
Gotta head to work, got bills to pay
Brushed my teeth with the last bit of paste
Started shaving, but just staring into space
Can't fix my hair, so I comb it for effect
Put a little of the old spice on my neck
Gen X life got harder as I got older
Weight of the world sitting on my shoulders
Seems I've always been working, grinding
Always running out of time, but I'm trying
I know there are friends who care, still it don't seem fair
Ten minutes in, hot shower turned cold
Soap in my eyes, this shit is old
Try to get dressed, but nope, it's in the washer
Third best shirt, glad I didn't toss her
Kinda feeling ready, lost the key to the gate
Have to get there early, cause on time is late
Little low on gas, just add it to the list
At least I got my music for moments like this
Finessing is how I do the work thing
I need three coffees to get the brain zing
Driving in the Jeep, no road rage
Made it in on time for the shift change
Gen X life got harder as I got older
Weight of the world sitting on my shoulders
Seems I've always been working, grinding
Always running out of time, but I'm trying
I know there are friends who care, still it don't seem fair
Gen X life got harder as I got older
Weight of the world sitting on my shoulders
Seems I've always been working, grinding
Always running out of time, but I'm trying
I know there are friends who care, still it don't seem fair
