Living in the City
(Jacob R. McGowen)
[1st Verse]
Every day, I walk to the station
I find my bus and then I take my seat
And I ride and go through the motions
While others ride to try to make ends meet
[Chorus]
Living in, living in the city
Fighting on and trying to survive
Living in, living in the city
Looking for some meaning in this life
[2nd Verse]
Could I find solace and some comfort
In the shoes of anyone but me?
Or am I just not understanding
That everyone around me is in need
[2nd Chorus]
Living in, living in the city
Everyone is trying to survive
Living in, living in the city
Everyone wants to be satisfied
[Bridge]
Whether they’re working long hours
And they have no time to sleep
Or if they’re working three jobs to
Have a condo to keep
Or if they’re losing their minds
And they are someone like me
Everyone fights to thrive, just to be
[Outro]
Living in the city
To enjoy and to just live out their lives
To live in, to live in the city
And to find out how they can be satisfied!
