When I close my eyes at night
Then I awaken to light
The money I make
Is what the world
Demands of me

The dream of this place
Was built on people like me
What's taken you
So long to hear
Hear when i scream

I want to live
I want to live
I want to live
I want to live

When I am in my home asleep
Don't come in
With no warning
cnd take me from this world
No justice to unfurl
cnd no way for me
To breathe

I want to live
I want to live
I want to live
I want to live

I'm going to love the one I want
I'm going to love her so hard
I'm going to watch my babies grow
cnd play in the yard

I'm gonna stack up all my bread
cnd spend it how I want and where
I'm gonna plant my garden
cnd watch it pour out

I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live

I'm gonna drive in my car
I'm gonna go to the store
I'm gonna go for a run
Then I'm gonna come right back home
