    This song is proof everybody is sick of the BS. U can hear the disdain in each artists voice who remix’s this song. I appreciate all of the real ones putting their spin on this masterpiece.

      Bunch of y'all acting like the original singer/songwriter ain't shit..... Give respect where it's due. The original composer of this song. Funny how all these already famous artists hop on and do a remix to make $ off of this average American putting a HUGE target on his back for bringing up the pedophiles that run the world. This man don't have the financial resources for protection/security y'all do... Y'all already famous, money hungry mfs, better give every cent you make, off this man's bravery/balls of steel, to him....

      As a Canadian also, it hits home and feels like being stabbed in the heart. We are so bullied by the government that our people are divided and ready for a serious fight. Like old style war. I am tired. Tired of everything. Worked always paying into a government (non-optional) program that is not based on how much you put in is how much you get in the end. It also offers a disability pension if you get sick, injured. It caps out around $1280/month. If you also get a widow pension or any other kind it’s deducted dollar for dollar so you may end up with $0 after paying $2500/year every year you worked. That hurts deep. I’m just tired of it all. Seeing this video made me realize I am not alone.

You, in one song, addressed all the major issues, that has caused fear, chaos, confusion among the vast majority of Canadians, while dividing people, causing unnecessary conflicts. After two years of 24hr lock down care with patients, no time off, not seeing my family or care for them, like many, I left Nursing. Packed up my animals, and we have been off grid since. I am now a Power Engineer. I know I need to do more, to encourage others to just stop living lives dictated to them, as I fear, it's going to get alot worse.

      ​@c0ckhead684 they get reported as missing from reservations and authorities don't want to help because it's "not their problem it's a reservation problem" and they blame other indigenous folk, but reservations don't have the proper, or enough, resources to find them. In 2016 there were over 5k reports but only 116 got logged in the federal database.

    Thank you Merk, from another Canadian, love you buddy. LYRICS:
    I've been sellin' my soul
    Workin' all day
    Overtime hours
    For bullshit pay
    So I can sit out here
    And waste my life away
    Drag back home
    And drown my troubles away
    It's a damn shame
    What the world's gotten to
    For people like me
    And people like you
    Wish I could just wake up
    And it not be true
    But it is
    Oh it is
    So many years of ignoring the truth
    So many tears, I let go on this booth
    I'm drinking this beer and I'm doing these drugs
    Just to numb all this pain, I don't know what to do
    It's not just me, only you and I
    Know that I've been so in debt that I'm suicidal
    I'm so used to being used
    That I don't use my head and instead I just use a bottle
    Put in so many hours we'll never get back
    Just to collect this check that they turn into tax
    Maybe next time our kids show up to class
    You teach them the truth and they'd learn about that
    We carry this country, it's hurtin' our backs
    The government fucks us, we're working for scraps
    No matter what, we're determined to crash
    Let's purge for a purpose and earn it all back
    They'll make you a promise, then let you down
    Plus, these countries are run by some pedophiles
    And me I refuse to just sit around
    While they're teaching our children this shit out loud
    They told us to shut up and wear a mask
    Just take this vaccine and take care of that
    On this highway to hell, I've been there and back
    I can't fit all this shit in a paragraph
    Fuck 'em!
    I've been sellin' my soul
    Workin' all day
    Overtime hours
    For bullshit pay
    So I can sit out here
    And waste my life away
    Drag back home
    And drown my troubles away
    It's a damn shame
    What the world's gotten to
    For people like me
    And people like you
    Wish I could just wake up
    And it not be true
    But it is
    Oh it is
    They supply us the drugs that are killing our kids
    Then we do nothing 'bout it, it is what it is
    I'm not sorry, I'm seriously sick of this shit
    I just packed up and moved, now I live in the sticks
    Thanks to big pharma we get withdrawal
    Then the whole world is hooked on this fentanyl
    Be careful or you might be dead tomorrow
    Yeah, we're working away at their beck and call
    If they saw this they'd tell you that this is a stretch
    But why are we letting 'em get in our heads
    How is there veterans livin' in tents
    Cause the cycle has proven to bring us to death
    Like, what is the reason we waited this long to admit this is all population control
    Take one look around, this shit's taking its toll
    But I'm saying fuck it, I'm breaking the mold
    I promise I'm not being passive-aggressive
    I'm actually fed up, I'm passing a message
    I'm tryin' to say that they have an agenda, and we just ignore all the facts that they give us
    Indigenous women go missing, and what?
    We supposed to ignore it and sit on our thumbs?
    It's not 'bout the left or the right or the middle
    I'm going to war, I will not keep it civil
    Fuck that!
    I've been sellin' my soul
    Workin' all day
    Overtime hours
    For bullshit pay
    So I can sit out here
    And waste my life away
    Drag back home
    And drown my troubles away
    It's a damn shame
    What the world's gotten to
    For people like me
    And people like you
    Wish I could just wake up
    And it not be true
    But it is
    Oh it is
