This song is clearly about people, like me, who are considered "white trash", but still carry big dreams, even if their reality is harsh. The chorus is simple and repetitive, to really capture the feeling of tenacity and survival.

White Trash Fire
.
In the corner of the city
Where the lights won’t go
We gather ‘round the fire
With hearts that stills glows
They call us white trash
Say we're nothing but a lost
.
White trash dreams
In a broken town
We keep on rising
They push us down
White trash dreams
In a broken heart
We live and we die
.
But still we hang on to the lives
That we chose
The world looks down
From its tower so high,
But our dreams keep burning
Underneath the same old sky
.
White trash dreams
In a broken town
We keep on rising
They push us down
White trash dreams
In a broken heart
We live and we die
.
They think we’re nothing
But we still fight
For every bottle we empty
Every fist we raise
We’re chasing that fire
In the darkest of days
.
White trash dreams
In a world so cold
We may be broken
But we’re never been sold
White trash dreams
In the night so long
We keep on dreaming
We keep holding on
