Mean Something Paroles

We're all tired of the shit they're sayin'
We don't understand so we keep waitin'
For our moment to shine
For a chance to make it right
For a reason to try

Ain't we all just tryin' to mean something, mean something
Ain't we all just tryin' to be something to somebody else
The world's begging for change
And we get carried away helping ourselves
Ain't we all just tryin' to mean something, mean something
Ain't we all just tryin' to be something, be something

All I want is somehow to make my folks proud
Thought it'd take a few months in a ten-year town
But it's hard and harder to pray and harder to say
I'm sorry but I'm workin' and I can't talk today

I'm so tired of the shit I'm sayin'
And I don't like it but hell I keep on waitin'
Ain't we all just tryin' to mean something, mean something
Ain't we all just tryin' to be something to somebody else
The world's begging for change
And we get carried away helping ourselves
Ain't we all just tryin' to mean something, mean something
Ain't we all just tryin' to be something, be something

I just wanna make them smile
I'm so tired of the shit I'm saying
I just wanna mean something

Ain't we all just tryin' to mean something, mean something
Ain't we all just tryin' to be something to somebody else
The world's begging for change
And we get carried away helping ourselves
Ain't we all just tryin' to mean something, mean something
Ain't we all just tryin' to be something, be something

Ain't we all just trying to mean something
Ain't we all just trying to mean something
