(Verse 1)
Woke up this mornin', sun shinin' through the pane
But the rent's due, got nothin' left to gain
Gas prices sky high, groceries on the rise
Livin' paycheck to paycheck, feelin' like a fool in disguise
(Chorus)
Oh, the cost of livin', it's a heavy load
Workin' hard, but barely makin' the road
To a better life, a brighter day
But the bills pile up, and they just won't go away
(Verse 2)
Walkin' down the street, seein' folks like me
Struglin' to make ends meet, just tryin' to be free
From the grip of debt, the constant worry and strife
Wishin' we could just live a simple, peaceful life
(Chorus)
Oh, the cost of livin', it's a heavy load
Workin' hard, but barely makin' the road
To a better life, a brighter day
But the bills pile up, and they just won't go away
(Bridge)
They say work hard, you'll get ahead
But sometimes it feels like I'm stuck in a rut instead
The system's rigged, the odds are stacked against
The working class, just tryin' to make a decent living, that's the quest
(Chorus)
Oh, the cost of livin', it's a heavy load
Workin' hard, but barely makin' the road
To a better life, a brighter day
But the bills pile up, and they just won't go away
(Outro)
Yeah, the cost of livin', it's a heavy load
But we keep on keepin' on, down this dusty road
Hopin' for a change, a brighter day
But for now, we just gotta keep on payin' the way.
