[Intro]
I'm gonna die broke and hungry
[Verse 1]
The fire inside is barely a little smoke
It died the day I knew I'd be always broke
Oh, what a joke, yeah
Learned my first lesson when I was just a kid
You're born with money or you'll be chasing it
And never win, yeah
[Chorus]
America talks big, like
Everybody's got a fair shot - yeah, right
I'm tired and depleted
I'm totally defeated
I'm gonna die broke and hungry
[Verse 2]
The lottery ain't doing anybody charity
Been struck by lighting twice, but never won a thing
Lucky me, shit
[Chorus]
Hollywood talks big game
Like anyone could access wealth and fame
I'm tired and depleted
I'm totally defeated
I'm gonna die broke and hungry
I'm gonna die broke and hungry
I'm gonna die broke and hungry
[Bridge]
I'm just a simpleton
Trying to get a win
Begging for crumbs
'Cause scraps are out of the question
Shit, I'll take anything
I don't know how to get through this
I'm just a simpleton
Trying to get a win
[Chorus]
Everyone talks real cheap
Working hard and saying, "It's gonna be me"
'Til they're tired, depleted, exploited, defeated
We're gonna die broke and hungry
Yeah, we're gonna die broke and hungry
Yeah, we're gonna die broke and hungry
We're gonna die broke and hungry
We're tired, defeated, exploited, defeated
We're gonna die broke and hungry
