Too Much Too Ask

Posted by Christian on April 11, 2019

Tired of trying,

Tired of fighting,

Haven’t heard, “You’re fired”,

That’s good I guess,

Tried my best,

But just too much on my desk,

How do I make it last,

When does it become too much to ask?

Stressed out the ass,

All these damn tasks,

Just trying to make it last,

But it seems like I’m going nowhere fast,

The social classes are complex yet simple,

If you’re born into a wealthy family,

You don’t worry about anything except who you’re gonna be,

But where I’m at,

The middle class,

It sucks ass,

You gotta work to make ends meet,

And if you fail you’re on the streets,

Even with a small income you still gotta eat,

But right now this world has me beat,

Right now I’m nothing but defeat,

-ed,

You gotta be educated,

Some jobs you need experience,

But how can you get started but aint got none,

I’ve had enough,

This world can be real tough,

When does it become too much to ask,

Streessed out the ass,

All these damn tasks,

Just trying to make it last,

But it seems like I’m going nowhere fast,

Let’s get a little more personal,

At work your department is supposed to be the backbone of the store,

Sometimes you end up getting really sore,

While the big man is making the dollar,

Your team is making the dime,

Management is supposed to bring the rhythm,

And you bring the rhyme,

Even when your boss doesn’t get smashed,

Your team still gets all the lash,

When does it become too much to ask,

Stressed out the ass,

All these damn tasks,

Just trying to make it last,

But it seems like I’m going nowhere fast,

Your soul is nothing but ash,

Your depressed to the max,

No one bats an eye or manages to ask,

How are you doing?

Not so great,

I think I need a break,

Been stayin’ up late,

Just to get them hours,

Trying to do good for me and my girl,

But this stress is making me wanna hurl,

Just does it ever go away?

Seems like the answer is just no way,

When does it become too much to ask,

Streessed out the ass,

All these damn tasks,

Just trying to make it last,

But it seems like I’m going nowhere fast,
