letra de complain - jack light x i.m the artist

jim wakes up, 5am, puts on his suit and tie
kisses his wife on the head
leaves the house before sunrise
back after it sets
monday to friday, long hours and stress
he’s just one in a million, the same old commute
got no time grab a bite but he can feed off abuse
his boss won’t understand, but really, he needs a break
now tell me why he can’t complain
overworked, underpaid, working through a summer day
a fifth of his wage, went poof, into thin air
tryna find the light, figure out how he got there
needs to be strong but his mental health is impaired
he’s scared, what’s the easy way? to stop all this and ease the pain
searching for a brighter day, but won’t ask for help
it goes inwards to himself, all the hate the rage
now tell me why he can’t complain

i just need a day to be alone
i just need a day
please give me a break
i don’t wanna face
i’m starting to fade, fade away
someone take it from me
can we trade the pain?
maybe i’m too mixed up, can’t get fixed now
stuck deep in the game
i’m too mixed up, let’s just drink up
make it through the day

claire wakes up, 10am, puts on a face of make-up
loads up tik tok
scrolls to see what’s hot today but all her friends are, way up
50k likes, that’s a milestone she won’t touch
dammit, go to instagram and see the likes
only one follow from yamaha789
maybe go to snapchat or twitter she needs love today
now tell me why she can’t complain
she’s got model in her bio and her uni where she got her first
the brainiest of all the siblings but she’s female she’s the worst
the boys are great, the parents proud, but claire, my god she sits around
watching love island, like it’s real life and really how
the world around us works, the pressure for the fame
searching for a brighter day but pushed right out the way
she really loves her family but really hates the pain
now tell me why she can’t complain

they wake up, what’s the plan today
pick a lie out of a hat send that to the papes
the death rate is kinda high, leave that for the page for 25
how about we say how hard we work that’s a headline
if we give them light and risk their lives, they’ll understand we’re trying right?
it’s kinda difficult to run a country when the doctors die
we gave ‘em graphs we gave ‘em facts, we let them drive around all day
now tell me why they all complain
we’ll give ‘em football back, put love island back on the tv
might even encourage them to lose a stone or 3
make some work, that’ll shift the criticism
and if you wanna cancel us we’ll blame the opposition
who cares about claire, who cares about jim?
they’re just small prawns to big sharks, to small p-wns to kings
ha, ha, ha, i can carry on just being vague
now tell me why you all complain
