Put in Work (aus "Sing meinen Song, Vol. 11")

I was born with stars in my eyes

That's just what I thought I was meant to be

Mama told me, "Reach for the sky

Life is just one big opportunity"

You put in work, put in work, but you'll never be done

Feel the burn, feel the burn, 'cause you're chasing the sun

Keep digging that hole

Just to find a fool's gold, yeah

Spent my whole life on the grind

No telling what it's done to me

And through the struggle I find

No love in labor, no ecstasy

Searching deep inside for a feeling

I know the answer's in me

Giving my whole life a new meaning

I know the best things in life are free, yeah

Put in work, put in work, but you'll never be done

Feel the burn, feel the burn, 'cause you're chasing the sun

Keep digging that hole just to find a fool's gold, yeah

You put in work, put in work, but you'll never be done

Feel the burn, feel the burn, 'cause you're chasing the sun

Keep digging that hole just to find a fool's gold, yeah

Told me, I should follow my dreams

Instead, they're catching up to me

Nothing's really what it seems

When you're fulfilling a fantasy

I realized that looks are deceiving

And that's when I started to hear

The rhythm that my heart was beating

The road ahead is so crystal clear, yeah

You put in work, put in work, but you'll never be done

Feel the burn, feel the burn, 'cause you're chasing the sun

Keep digging that hole just to find a fool's gold

You put in work, put in work, but you'll never be done

Feel the burn, feel the burn, 'cause you're chasing the sun

Keep digging that hole just to find a fool's gold, yeah
