Rat Race

Do what you will in the heat of the battle
In the end that’s everything you’ve got
Do what you can with what little you’re given
In the end only precious little lasts

Everybody wants to be somebody
But few of us ever get a chance
Everybody wants to join the rat race
yet we wonder why the world is full of rats

Be who you are and commit to your motion
As you move you leave the worst behind
Be who you can with the skin that you’re wearing
In the end your skin won’t matter much

Everybody wants to be somebody
But few of us ever get a chance
Everybody wants to join the rat race
and we wonder why the world is full of rats

Give what you take before all is forgotten
your reward will be worth your weight in gold
Give what you have while there’s something worth giving
In the end no order is to-go

Everybody wants to be somebody
But few of us ever get a chance
Everybody wants to join the rat race
And too many are willing to be a rat
