Don't really feel so good
My life is at an end
Fame is so hard to get
So many lows and downs
You know I'm not so bad and
I can write a song
If they only let me show
What I can do
No way to find a job
My car's without a part
Millions of bills to pay
My landlord wants me out
Whatever happens
You know I will survive
This is not the first time
Been down this road before
This time I have to win on my own
This time I have to win can't be wrong
If only just for you
It's important to me
This time I have to win
Yeah, this time I have to win
My girl has gone away
I'm left here all alone
She said if you make it
You know my telephone
My room is empty besides
Pictures on the walls
But I fell that someday
She'll be knocking at my door
This time I have to win on my own
This time I have to win can't be wrong
If only just for you, I'll make it
This time I have to win on my own
This time I have to win
My life is at an end
Fame is so hard to get
So many lows and downs
You know I'm not so bad and
I can write a song
If they only let me show
What I can do
No way to find a job
My car's without a part
Millions of bills to pay
My landlord wants me out
Whatever happens
You know I will survive
This is not the first time
Been down this road before
This time I have to win on my own
This time I have to win can't be wrong
If only just for you
It's important to me
This time I have to win
Yeah, this time I have to win
My girl has gone away
I'm left here all alone
She said if you make it
You know my telephone
My room is empty besides
Pictures on the walls
But I fell that someday
She'll be knocking at my door
This time I have to win on my own
This time I have to win can't be wrong
If only just for you, I'll make it
This time I have to win on my own
This time I have to win
