"I Am Broke" lyrics

"I Am Broke"
(feat. Oh Yun)

Not even a million sitting in my account
Not even close to what the world calls enough
Thirty-five years old and starting from zero
No resume, no ladder, no safety, no cushion

They post their lives online like they're kings and queens
Turns out half of it was never even real
Thirty thousand won and a borrowed kind of confidence
I see right through the mask, I know how that feels

I am broke, I am broke
But I'm still breathing here today
I am broke, I am broke
One more step, one more day

No job title to hand over when they ask
Just these hands and one more thing I'm willing to try
One hour is enough, I don't need the whole day
Just enough to prove I haven't said goodbye

Wash your face even if there's nowhere you need to be
Step outside and watch the world keep turning slow
You don't have to win today, you don't have to prove it
Just don't disappear, that's all you need to know

I am broke, I am broke
But I showed up anyway today
I am broke, I am broke
And maybe that's enough to say

We're all lying in the same empty field somehow
Under the same tired sky, carrying the same weight
No highlight reel, no trophy, no big victory
Just people trying to make it through the gate

I am broke, I am broke
Still here, still mine, still trying
I am broke, I am broke
That's enough for one more night
