All good men have their place

In this world, in this land

Look around and you will see

All good men need their game

Rat, Rat Race

How tired you think you are

When a job is all you have?

No more music in your heart

If you stop your body dies

Don’t believe what other say

It’s your life, not your grave

Please wake up from your sleep

Look around and you will see

Listen to your sacred voices

They scream your unique path

The only reason to resist

Is to learn and then exist

8:00 to 20:00, until the end

Light and darkness, until next day

8:00 to 20:00, feel the end

Rat Race to no escape

Look around and you will see

So smiles to complete

Pray the sky to find your sacred task

Throw away your own mask

Don’t deny your destiny

You have spent all your life trying to improve yourself

You have spent all your life fighting to accept yourself

All you get is all you give; the Rat Race is not for free

Every time you get compared the Rat Race will be there

They’ll try to make you believe all they offer is what you need

They’ll try to make you feel that you need more, there’s not enough

Cover your dreams with coins and bills, your mind’s too full to think

Say ‘Hi’, to your Rat Race and try to find the escape

All good men have their place in this world

All good women have a land to grow

If you look around, you will see the truth

Just believe that there’s a place for you too

Things I’ve learnt in life

Rat Race in my mind

But I will learn to run
