	Story Behind the Song Talking to a lot of my friends and doing some reflective thinking, I realized that a lot of us at this point in life lack the motivation and drive to truly enjoy life. This song is about just that, and hopefully it'll provide some sense of direction for us all. Lyrics ROLL ON, MAN by MMX It's a sad day in our lives When there's no way we can walk that seems right And every other anal bitch seems to wanna fight While emptiness and rage are takin' turns inside Sometimes at night you feel like you wanna walk Sometimes in fright you feel like you need to just talk And the chalkboard's full inside your head Full of reasons why you're probably better off dead But I can relate to what you're goin' thru I've been debating for a year or two too Playin' this stupid game by the fuckin' same stupid rules Actin' cool when deep down we think like a fool It's a sad reality, so sad but it's true Working bad jobs just to get some money we can use But it's useless 'cause what we really need Is less bullshit and more time livin' free Of this unexplained pain that hurts every day And all the stressin' and the strainin' and the debts we need to pay And you wish that you could say "Demons be gone" But keep rollin' on. One day they will go away Roll on, man. It's all right now to not give a fuck Roll on, man. We still got time to turn things right side up We may live in the present and the present may suck So we live for the future, tomorrow we'll have better luck Roll on, man. It's all right now to not give a fuck Roll on, man. We still got time to turn things right side up We may live in the present and the present may suck So we live for the future, tomorrow we'll have better luck It's no surprise that sometimes it's a frown that you're wearin And not a smile in your eyes when you think of your two parents When they're swearin' at each other, your father at your mother And you wanna run for cover, but your house is too small To block all the sounds comin' up and down the halls So you run around the town till your trip and you fall And you can't help wonderin' if you're fucked up But it means somethin' that you're not drugged up 'Cause maybe right now it's tough luck, tough love But hold on tight 'cause we're gettin' to the good stuff Just look at us, we only got here eight years ago When we were still livin' in apartment's in the ghetto The thugs with the knives tryin' to take our lives But look now, we survived, we turned out all right We're better off now than we were yesteryear And that'll always be true as long as we're here So don't be thinkin' we're on a road goin' straight to hell You'll still be blingin' long as you stay yourself Roll on, man. It's all right now to not give a fuck Roll on, man. We still got time to turn things right side up We may live in the present and the present may suck So we live for the future, tomorrow we'll have better luck Roll on, man. It's all right now to not give a fuck Roll on, man. We still got time to turn things right side up We may live in the present and the present may suck So we live for the future, tomorrow we'll have better luck You don't have to read those fuckin' Rosie books for inspiration It's all about what be's your fuckin' mental disposition It's not a bunch of stories that I think you're missin' It's a change to your pained and alien environment You think in some way you're strangely inadequate But I disagree 'cause I don't even think you lack a bit So quit it, there's simply no time for you to try To find something noexistent inside of you to despise We haven't even lived a fifth of our lives We're too young to give up and park on the side And watch the traffic go by like we were never there 'Cause I know you and I we were born to clear A spot in the pages of the book of history For you and me so throughout the ages, sages Will look at who the fuck we are and set the two of us apart From those others maybe brothers who went but didn't make it And that's what I believe I see in our future So cheers! Here's to the two of us Roll on, man. It's all right now to not give a fuck Roll on, man. We still got time to turn things right side up We may live in the present and the present may suck So we live for the future, tomorrow we'll have better luck Roll on, man. It's all right now to not give a fuck Roll on, man. We still got time to turn things right side up We may live in the present and the present may suck So we live for the future, tomorrow we'll have better luck Roll on, man. It's all right now to not give a fuck Roll on, man. We still got time to turn things right side up We may live in the present and the present may suck So we live for the future, tomorrow we'll have better luck
