Lyrics:

Alarm clock wakes you cursing at the cold
Cuz the blanket on your bed got a couple little holes
And your mom put your cereal in someone else's bowl
Got you flying off the wall losing all of your control

And the water in the shower isn't hot as you would like
Because your sister used it first and she likes to take her time
And the car isn't working so you gotta take your bike
Down the street to school because you'd never do the hike

You enter the doors to the place that you dread
Heading late to all your classes with books you never read
You stayed up all night playing video games instead
And your missing your bed and feel brain dead

Totally unaware that some time zones away
There's a hundred boys and girls who are starving every day
And wake up due to wind or the mud or the rain
They don't have medicine they can take to kill the pain

They don't have a warm roof that they can go to and call home
And they don't have a family most their days they spend alone
Their school is how to make it through the cold just skin and bone
And how to find confidence in living life on your own

Don't get me wrong I'm not saying that I'm perfect
I've neglected my family and underestimate its worth
And I've been selfish and spoiled since the day of my birth
But for right now I'm truly greatful for my place on this earth because

All I need is the air I breathe
And a place to rest my head

You rush home its friday night excited for your date
Then you find out your dads stuck at work and he'll be late
You get angry and start yelling things that start with I hate
Then at dinner you don't touch a single thing on your plate

Your mom asks for help cleaning up but she ruined your night
So you ignore her words until it turns into a fight
Everyone is against you and your hating your life
And your resenting everything and everyone in your sight

But there are kids who don't ever see their moms or dads
Cuz their job as a soldier is to fight to their last
Breath of life and so life isn't all that bad
If you take a step back then you might see that in fact

That your life is pretty great on the worst of days and
Your lucky to be where you are with family and friends
And everything seems to work out in the end eh
So I won't stop till I got you saying

All I need is the air I breathe
And a place to rest my head
