about

The final single release from the upcoming fell length, "Trials and Triumphs" on Peach City Sound.

lyrics

I was raised by working people
They raised us to be the same
Now they're older, spent and feeble
And us kids are out here playing the same game

They taught us not to take what we didn't earn
We learned to always pull our weight
Making ends meet was always first concern
Aspirations crushed under the weight

CHORUS:
Always holding out for Someday
But Someday never comes
When our eulogies are read
When all is done and said
Are we just living for that day until we're dead?

I thought that I had learned their lesson
I thought I'd break free on my own
But I learned the hard way that there's no self-made man
And now I'm back here with the crew, serving steaks and eating crow
