This Is It
Mr. Jack Declare Lyrics

Is this all life is? Cus I am not happy with the life I live. Show me where I can complain. I've had enough of pain. It's ruining my health so something else has got to give.

Is this it? Is this all life is? Cus I am not happy with the life I live. Show me where I can complain. I've had enough of pain. It's ruining my health so something else has got to give.

I hope it's all a dream, cus no one really cares.
I heard that life's a gift but I guess no one's aware. They tell us, work in teams, but we barely work in pairs. Like we could all fit in the lift but most are made to take the stairs.

Dictatorship of wolves, dictating to the sheep. Dictated to by fools and half the public is asleep. Wrapped in cotton wool like we are covered in a sheet. Like they're keeping people crippled just to bloody up the streets.

It's like all I see is raining, with no sign of any drainage. And I know I keep complaining, with no sign of any changes. I've applied for all the jobs but they all require training. Told my dad I need a car, he said son just get the train in.

I try keep up the fight but the strength in me in waning, like my first name was Bruce an jokers bout to come with Bane. Ain't got the car or suit, the money butler or the cave. Guess I've got no choice but keep riding on this wave.

In the barrel like a bullet in the chamber no escape. Until someone pulls the trigger I move onto better days. To a better way of living with less taking and more giving. Let the men be with men and the women be with women.

And let me be with my children. I'd kill to still be with them. We all would get along not have to live within their system. Have more contact with my Sister. I know she knows I miss her. She's been with him for years and yet I've still not met her Mr.

Ive still not met my Mrs and I've still not met my match and I get angry like a dog with people pissing on my patch. It's like my mind is locked and I just cannot find the latch, like someone's taken both my hands and yet I'm still here playing catch.

Head semi detached like my bodys feeling lonely. I've got a mobile phone but I ain't got no one to phone me. I'm sick of watching news, they report it kinda phoney. I just wanna know the truth but I ain't got no one to show me.

All these one trick poneys got me feeling like an ass, and all these born with riches like they got a lifetime pass. Looked after my seeds but the sun scorched my grass, like all bad things just descend on me en mass.

I ain't asking for your sympathy, just tryna write a symphony. So you come and sing with me or just repent your sins with me. My soul in need of cleansing see. My eyes, they need a lens to see. Wish I had my friends with me. Just focus on the strength in me.

Avoided lion's dens but fell straight into the pit. Spent my life with snakes an I just kept on getting bit. My sweat tastes like salt so I guess I found my grit. Is this all life is? Is this it?

Is this it? Is this all life is? Cus I am not happy with the life I live. Show me where I can complain. I've had enough of pain. It's ruining my health so something else has got to give.

Life is like a book with nothing written on the pages. The morning holds hope but the evenings lost wages. Everyone's an actor but we're running out of stages, just repeat the same chapter with a cast of new faces.

Always in a race to see how big space is. We fight the same wars in the same old places. The case goes cold in the same old cases. If life is a shoe, I can't tie my laces, I'm tripping.

I'm tripping up but falling down. I don't forget the feeling, see the ceiling from the ground. And I just lay there dreaming wishing I was not around. Cus the way that I am living got me acting like a clown.

I'm in my car and speeding as I'm driving through the town and it's absolutely freezing still got all my windows down. As the antidote is leaving and I'm grieving for myself and then I'm pleading with my dad but he just leaves me on the shelf.

Is this it? Is this all life is? People only bothered about other people's biz. No one gives a thought to how the other half lives. We give one man the power and the power is all his.

This is crazy. I'm feeling lazy. I'm off work but my boss still pays me. It's an escape see, when it's hazy. The Xbox screaming out just play me.

And so I waste away my time when I should really waste it wisely. Why is crap food so cheap and the nice stuff so pricey? If you don't cook your meat then it will look a little dicey, and you'll never get the best unless you live like high and mighty.

Lucky here in Blighty, not so lucky in the States, if I lived in Greece then I'd be running out of plates. They'd get smashed in frustration. I'm losing my patience. I'm tired of the waiting. When train hits the station, I'm off.

Because I'm sick of feeling lost. I just hate the feeling when I'm counting up the costs. I'm hoping for a win but this just feels like a loss cause I'm stuck on the stairs when the lift goes to the top.





Is this it? Is this all life is? Cus I am not happy with the life I live. Show me where I can complain. I've had enough of pain. It's ruining my health so something else has got to give.
