Alarm clock screams like it hates my soul
Cheap black coffee, getting old
Posters say “you’ll be just fine”
If you sell your youth on time
Same Grey suit, different day
Counting hours, counting pay
They say “patience makes you free”
Feels like a joke to me
Bills keep knocking on my door
I don’t dream like I did before
We got minimum wage dreams
Maximum anxiety
They say “work hard, you’ll be free”
Yeah right, just not for me
Minimum wage dreams
Living life on maybe
If this is success to see
Then don’t sell it to me
Motivation on the wall
Quotes don’t help me sleep at all
“Follow passion”, “trust the plan”
Sounds better than it stands
If growing up means losing fire
Then I don’t wanna climb higher
We got minimum wage dreams
Maximum anxiety
They say “one day you’ll believe”
But that day’s killing me
Minimum wage dreams
Still chasing me
They say “one day you’ll believe”
But that day’s killing me
