Everything I Got
Mike Pinto Lyrics

I've been bitchin and complainin
I've been expressing my discontent and frustration

using God's name in vain and
expressing discontent and frustration at God

wishing on so much more to show for, to show for
wanting more to come of my life's efforts

And I guess when you're trying just to end
when you're trying to overcome

that battle after battle you forget that there's a damn war
the struggles are ongoing

a war to be won, a life to be shared, shared with someone
a life to be lived and shared with others

and when it rains it pours it's feast or famine
life can swing greatly between good and bad times

and we've all had many days before
we've all had tough days before

where we should've got our heads examined
where we should have sought help

well i'm at the end of my rope
I'm at my breaking point

and all that i've got left is hope
my only saving grace is hope

i pull the rope until the rope it gives
I push through until there's nothing left

cuz nothing's stronger than my will to live. whoa
because nothing can overcome my determination to live

I'll give it everything i've got yeah
I'll give it my all

i'm gunna pull through
I'll make it through

what more can i do, oh.
I've done all I can

take what i'm given
accept what I have

this life's worth living.
life is worth living

to all those who can't catch a break,
to all those struggling

i sympathize.. here's my shoes go try them on for size
I understand, please relate to me

and if they feel comfortable
if my situation is relatable

you'll see i'm not the only one who's searching for something more
many others are searching for more as well

here's a story, bet it rings a bell
let me share a story that you may resonate with

you work a job that doesn't pay too well
you work a job that doesn't provide fair compensation

you're all fed up and while you used to love it,
you're burnt out and used to love it before

you wanna tell your boss to take this job and shove it oh.
you want to quit your job

even once you lost a loved one
even when you've lost someone close to you

i fend for years in search of someone
I struggled for years looking for someone

i've spent too much time on the inside of hospitals
I've spent too much time in hospitals

too much crying on the long drives to funerals
I've cried too much on long drives to funerals

well soon enough we'll all be leaving
we'll all eventually pass away

so let's cheers to another day breathing
let's be thankful for another day

and raise a glass to the ones who passed on
let's honor those who have passed

they're the one's who keep us strong. whoa.
they're the ones who inspire and motivate us
