"Broke" No money A lot of ambition No opportunities While living in a garbage economy I'm broke Debt up to my knees Bill collectors looking for me Gas tank is barely above up E Can't afford to finish pursuing my degree I'm broke Bank account is drained No health insurance I hope I don't get sick or go insane No jobs Plenty of layoffs I'm broke Back against wall I'm tired Because no food has hit my stomach walls Times are hard But I will survive through it all Even though I'm broke |
