The Greatest

Getting up, getting dressed
Bed is made, my hair's a mess
All of this to impress the same people
I fake a smile, shake a hand
Say the words "please come again"
Making money for my plans is exhausting

We survive another day
Breaking all our backs and making sure we're getting paid
Living just to live when nobody makes a say
Comparing what I'm worth to my numbers in the bank
I wish I was more than an essential
Employee for those that I work for
I want to reach my star potential
Make music to question

Could I be the greatest?
If I work real hard, will I make it?
If I sacrifice dedication
My passion my time
Instead of working nine to five all day
Could I be the greatest?
If I work real hard, will I make it?
If I sacrifice dedication
My passion my time
Instead of working nine to five all day
Could I be the greatest?
Oh woah oh woah
Oh woah oh woah
Oh woah oh woah

Happy dreams tossed aside
Mop the floor on isle five
Earning enough to get by is my normal
I'm buying time and I'm paying rent
Finding memes on the internet
Does it get better than this?
Maybe it doesn't

We survive another day
Breaking all our backs and making sure we're getting paid
Living just to live when nobody makes a say
Comparing what I'm worth to my numbers in the bank
I wish I was more than an essential
Employee for those that I work for
I want to reach my star potential
Make music to question

Could I be the greatest?
If I work real hard, will I make it?
If I sacrifice dedication
My passion my time
Instead of working nine to five all day
Could I be the greatest?
If I work real hard, will I make it?
If I sacrifice dedication
My passion my time
Instead of working nine to five all day
Could I be the greatest?
Oh woah oh woah
Oh woah oh woah
Oh woah oh woah

Bills are piling up
Have I run out of luck?
Should I give up?
On my hopes and dreams
On reality
On what could be or what couldn't be
I don't want to be just anyone or anything
No oh
yeah

Could I be the greatest?
If I work real hard, will I make it?
If I sacrifice dedication
My passion my time
Instead of working nine to five all day
Could I be the greatest?
If I work real hard, will I make it?
If I sacrifice dedication
My passion my time
Instead of working nine to five all day
Could I be the greatest?
Oh woah oh woah
Oh woah oh woah
Oh woah oh woah
