lyrics

Disposable society never gave you a choice.
You found punk rock music and it gave you a voice.
You didn’t want acceptance, but you still had to fight.
How else you gonna live in a world full of blight?

Chorus:
You gotta fight, when they say you don’t matter.
Listen to your heart, it’s your first line of defense.
You got to cry, till’ the windows all shatter.
Don’t give up on yourself I will always be your friend. You gotta fight.

A high school education never gave you a chance.
You’re paying off your bills with a paycheck advance.
Because poverty and sadness is a deadly do it.
Now you’re sitting in the basement playing Russian roulette.

(Chorus)

You may never walk this off, but you got to learn to walk with it and I’ll always be your friend. (Always be your friend)
You may never live this down, but you got to learn to live with it and I’ll be there till the end. Hey Telly!!!!!!!!

(Chorus)
