You tell yourself that you just can't take this
Enough with the madness
This has got to stop now, somehowAnd every time you think that you're okay
You get in your own way
Soon enough you're knocked down
Surrounded by your own denialGive it up for human nature
Give it up now bit by bit
Give it up for your frustration
Give it up cause kid your future lies here dying
And there's no use crying over itPeople tell you to do what they say
They all want it their way
All that you can do is bite lip or jump shipSo learn to smile at the ones that hate you
No matter what they do
They will never make it there
To where you know you will be goingGive it up for human nature
Give it up now bit by bit
Give it up for your frustration
Give it up cause kid your future lies here dying
And there's no use crying over itYou'll be the last one
To know when you're all done
But that's just the way life is now
You've gotta take what you get and give it up somehowGive it up for human nature
Give it up now bit by bit
Give it up cause kid your future lies here dying
And there's no use crying over itGive it up for your anger
Give it up for the tried and true
Give it up for everyone
Who's ever gone and given up on youGive it up for human nature
Give it up now bit by bit
Give it up for your frustration
Give it up cause kid your future lies here dying
And there's no denying
If you're through complying
Then there's no use crying over it.
