Pull on up
To the soapbox stool
Let me tell ya some stories
About how life can be cruel

I had big dreams
But they turned to dust
I need another shot of oil
Cause its starting to rust

And Im tryin to make a living
Tryin to find my way
Ive been bustin my ass
To be somebody someday

Tryin to make a living
Tryin to get ahead
Shootin at the moon
But it shot me down instead

War stories
Im kickin and fightin for my life
Through those war stories
I made it throught the battle of life

And its on and on until youre long gone
But the strong keep stickin it out
Through those war stories
Everybodys got em when you hit the bottom and survive

I said have another drink
This ones on me
Let me tell ya bout pain from a to z
I got scars from my head to my feet
Some like a junkyard car still rolling down the streets

And Im tryin to make a dollar
Tryin to pay my way
Ive been bustin my balls
And then they take it all away

Tryin to climb the ladder
Reaching for the sky
I aint going down
Until they hang me out to dry

War stories
Im kickin and fightin for my life
Through those war stories
I made it throught the battle of life

And its on and on until youre long gone
But the strong keep stickin it out
Through those war stories
Everybodys got em when you hit the bottom and survive

And its on and on until youre long gone
But the strong keep stickin it out
They got towing the line till the sun dont shine
But all I got left to talk about

Are those war stories
Im kickin and fightin for my life
Through those war stories
I made it throught the battle of life

War stories
Through those war stories
Everybodys got em when you hit the bottom and survive
