Alone, That’s All

Verse
There was a time, we rolled up our sleeves,
Built a world with dreams we believed.
Every hour, we earned our place,
A legacy carved in the human race.
But now I see the fire’s grown cold,
Where did the hunger for life unfold?
Chorus
Return to a time when no one whined,
The world was full of gogetters,
We all lived a life that seemed far better.
Now jump ahead to this wondrous world,
We no longer compete with anyone,
Lay around, get paid, and nothing gets done.
Verse
The fields once flourished, the cities soared,
Now it’s all stalled, the drive ignored.
Hands once strong now hold a screen,
Where’s the heart of the old routine?
We’ve traded ambition for fleeting ease,
Lost in the winds of an idle breeze.
Chorus
Return to a time when no one whined,
The world was full of gogetters,
We all lived a life that seemed far better.
Now jump ahead to this wondrous world,
We no longer compete with anyone,
Lay around, get paid, and nothing gets done.
Bridge
What’s the cost of comfort’s chain?
A restless soul, a world mundane.
Without the fight, we lose the prize,
A life worth living before our eyes.
Chorus
Return to a time when no one whined,
The world was full of gogetters,
We all lived a life that seemed far better.
Now jump ahead to this wondrous world,
We no longer compete with anyone,
Lay around, get paid, and nothing gets done.
Outro
Let’s ignite the spark, reclaim the drive,
Build a future where we thrive.
The past reminds, the work’s not through,
The choice is ours—what will we do?
