I Go Through > XX

That ivory tower's
Looking tattered and tired 'round the eyes
Ain't getting much sleep at night

My daddy told me
Politicians never learn the golden rule
Do unto others as you'd have them do to you

But you go 'round and around it
You go over and under
I go through

Food on the table,
Running car, and tuck my kids in at night
The American dream in real life

My mom's an angel
Cigarette smoke like a halo 'round her hair
Sun is shining right behind her standing there

You go 'round and around it
You go over and under
I go through

You go 'round and around it
You go over and under
I go through

You break my legs
Then make me walk
You seal my lips
Then demand I talk
You blind my eyes
Then ask me if I like what you drew, yeah you do

You go 'round and around it
You go over and under
I go through

My kid he asked me
"Daddy when you coming to me from work?"
If I'm being honest, man that hurt

So I go 'round and around it
I go over and under
He goes through

You break my legs
Then make me walk
You seal my lips
Then demand I talk
You blind my eyes
Then ask me if I like what you drew, yeah you do

You go 'round and around it
You go over and under
I go through

I go 'round and around it
I go over and under
She goes through

We go 'round and around it
We go over and under
We go through
