Shake The Dust

This is for the under paid hard workers
This is for the toy that never got played with
For the girl who was kidnapped in her sleep
This is for the young pregnant girl you once played with as a kid
For the guy that broke his foot in last nights game
For all the victims of drunk drivers
This is for the embarrassed and depressed
This is for Tommy, the boy with the bruise across his check
For the people who were just in the wrong place at the wrong time
Shake the dust
This is for the teacher you had, but could never understand
This is for the people who are reaching out of a helping hand
For that old man, trying to be young
This is for the women who went overboard with their plastic surgery
For the teachers pet, constantly trying to impress
For the broken hearts left unfixed
This for the guy bending down, with his butt crack peeping out
Shake the dust
In this rough world, its hard to get it right
Don't let the little things get you down
Or the bigger things with crush you
Shake the dust off your worries
Tomorrow is another day
