Same thing, different day Don a face, keep pace Same thing, different day Till dusk, get your pay The air is hot, dry and scathing I was once hydrated and fit My sprint turned to saunter Destitute and sick of it Take your time, finish it Seems like nothing, nothing can grow here Step by step, move towards the ending Find cloud 9, ready for landing Same thing, different day Don a face, keep pace Same thing, different day Till dusk, get your pay This wasn't supposed to happen Magic carpet dragged from under me Doubt set in and dug its heels in Stuck to the ground, left wondering Who's to blame but myself The institution, a combination of few One and only one, questions are many No oasis in sight, no vision friendly Take your time, finish it Seems like I'm not, I'm not alone here Hand in hand, run with the living Just in time, simply outstanding Take your time, finish it Seems like I fought, fought for my home here Drop by drop, quenching the thirst Making the best of what was the worst
