Put In Work (Aus "Sing Meinen Song, Vol. 11")

I was born with stars in my eyes
That's just what I thought I was meant to be
Mama told me, "Reach for the sky
Life is just one big opportunity"

You put in work, put in work, but you'll never be done
Feel the burn, feel the burn 'cause you're chasing the sun
Keep digging that hole
Just to find a fool's gold
Want that ride for

Spent my whole life on the grind
No telling what it's done to me
Through the struggle I find
No love in labor, no ecstasy

Searching deep inside for a feeling
I know that the answer's in me
Giving my whole life a new meaning
And I know the bad things in life are forgiven

Put in work, put in work, but you'll never be done
Feel the burn, feel the burn 'cause you're chasing the sun
Keep digging that hole
Just to find a fool's gold, ja
You put in work, put in work, but you'll never be done
Feel the burn, feel the burn 'cause you're chasing the sun
Keep digging that hole 
Just to find a fool's gold, hey

(Ooh-oh, oho-ooh-oh)
(Ooh-oh, oho-ooh-oh)
(Ooh-oh, oho-ooh-oh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Told me I should follow my dreams
Instead, they're catching up to me
Doesn't really what it seems
When you're fulfilling a fantasy

Realized that looks are deceiving
And that's when I started to hear
The rhythm that my heart was beating
The road ahead is so crystal clear

Put in work, put in work but you'll never be done
Feel the burn, feel the burn 'cause you're chasing the sun
Keep digging that hole
Just to find a fool's gold
Put in work, put in work, but you'll never be done
Feel the burn, feel the burn 'cause you're chasing the sun
Keep digging that hole
Just to find a fool's gold, yeah

(Ooh-oh, oho-ooh-oh)
(Ooh-oh, oho-ooh-oh)
(Ooh-oh, oho-ooh-oh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-oh, oho-ooh-oh)
(Ooh-oh, oho-ooh-oh)
(Ooh-oh, oho-ooh-oh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Wouh-hoo) (wouh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh) (yeah)
(Dankeschön) (wouh-wouh-wouh)
