Scarred but Smarter - Drivin N Cryin

Well I’m out of work

I’m out of hope

Of what should be of thee I spoke

Good times for the undeserved

Bad times for the ones who work

I said poor man, rich man, blind man, dead man

Hoped for more than they had all planned

Just then they suffered a serious blow

As the real world cut the line they hold

I said nobody said it would be fair

They warned you before you went out there

There’s always a chance to get restarted

To a new world, new life

Scarred but smarter

Is it right to wish the poor man rich

Is it right to wish the rich man poor

To hope all that’s well is fair ends fair

To wish thy neighbor’s life to despair

Being so mad that I start crying

No pay off for all my trying

To do it right — to never fail

Wishing for a fairy tale

Nobody said it would be fair

They warned me before I went out there

There’s always a chance to get restarted

To a new world, new life

Scarred but smarter

But when my life it turns all around

Jobs and things to do that I’ve found

I think how foolish I must have looked

To think I could be down for good

Nobody said it would be fair

But in the end I think it is

Karma, justice — whatever you call it

It’s really there — just keep looking for it

Nobody said it would be fair

But in the end I think it is

Karma, justice — whatever you call it

It’s really there — just keep looking for it

Nobody said it would be fair

But in the end I think it is

Karma, justice — whatever you call it

It’s really there — just keep looking for it

Nobody said it would be fair

They warned me before I went out there

There’s always a chance to get restarted

To a new world, new life

Scarred but smarter
