Bad Time to Be Poor Lyrics

It is a bad time to be poor,
cause we don't give a s*** no more.
If you want to go for help,
don't look next door,
the line's been drawn and staked outside.
i see to trying to lay the blame
on the folks in charge,
who hide in shame
for growing up with an open purse,
and learning not about being alive.
haven't i done enought to burn out?
haven't i been there to help out ?

it is a bad time to be young
what's left to us can't be undone
without it riding on our backs
when young and poor go hand in hand
it is a bad time to be poor.

haven't i done enought to burn out ?
haven't i been there to help out ?
it is a bad time to be poor,
and feeling winter through a crack in the door.
