The bank account is empty,
The cupboards are bare.
The rent is due tomorrow,
And I don’t know where to start.

I’ve applied for jobs,
But no one is hiring.
I’m starting to panic,
I don’t know what I’m going to do.

I’m so tired of being broke,
Of living paycheck to paycheck.
I just want a break,
A chance to catch my breath.

But it doesn’t seem like that’s going to happen anytime soon.
I’m stuck in this rut,
And I don’t know how to get out.

I’m starting to lose hope,
But I’m not giving up yet.
I know there’s a way out of this,
I just have to find it.

Until then, I’ll keep fighting,
I’ll keep searching for a way to make ends meet.
I won’t give up until I’m finally free,
From the burden of being strapped for money.
