ChatGPT-Reality Is Government Cheese

(Verse 1)
They said work hard, play it straight,
Climb that ladder, don’t be late.
But the bills stack high, and the pay stays low,
Ain’t no feast, just crumbs to show.

(Pre-Chorus)
They dress it up, make it sound sweet,
But struggle’s still the only thing we eat.
They sell the dream like it’s gourmet,
But I’ve been hungry either way.

(Chorus)
Reality is government cheese,
Melts too fast and sticks to your knees.
Ain’t no flavor, but it keeps you fed,
Just enough, but never ahead.
They slice it thin, they cut it cheap,
Keep you full, but never deep.
Yeah, reality is government cheese,
A little bite, but never free.

(Verse 2)
Clockin’ in, clockin’ out,
Tryin’ to make it, full of doubt.
They tell you, “Save,” they tell you, “Plan,”
But tell me where—when rent’s so grand?

(Pre-Chorus)
They serve it up, say, “That’s enough,”
But living broke is livin’ rough.
Wrapped in plastic, sold with pride,
But I see truth on the other side.

(Chorus)
Reality is government cheese,
Melts too fast and sticks to your knees.
Ain’t no flavor, but it keeps you fed,
Just enough, but never ahead.
They slice it thin, they cut it cheap,
Keep you full, but never deep.
Yeah, reality is government cheese,
A little bite, but never free.

(Bridge)
Dreams ain’t butter, dreams ain’t gold,
They’re just stories we’ve been told.
So pass that box, heat the pan,
Make the best with what’s in hand.

(Outro)
So here’s to life, here’s to truth,
Here’s to meals that stick like glue.
It ain’t much, but it’s what we’ve got,
Reality served up hot.
