Monday Morning Blues (Breathe)

God knows I work, so many hours I need a change of scene I know some day I will fight the power To be a man of means Be a part of that game Where your money's talking Ride that train to where your fortune's smiling Leave behind a poor man's life His days are bitches I have dreams of trading rags for riches Monday morning blues You know a prayer will see me through Monday morning blues You know I'll make my dreams come true. It's so routine, this life I'm leading I've got to break away I must to be mad, it's soul destroying No man should live this way. Should I reach for the sky Or just wait for mercy Don't ask why then leave the answer to history If a man should know his place Some men live in sorrow With or without grace I'll fight for tomorrow Monday morning blues You know a prayer will see me through Monday morning blues You know I'll make my dreams come true.
