Скачать или смотреть Songs of Life | Cause | I Lost My Job Two Weeks Before Christmas | Sixto Rodriguez

Some lines don’t need explaining.

“I lost my job two weeks before Christmas.”

Sixto Rodriguez wrote that line in his song “Cause” — and in one sentence, he captured something millions of people have lived through but rarely talk about.

This isn’t a protest song.
It isn’t polished or dramatic.
It’s a quiet truth about loss, dignity, and carrying on when the timing couldn’t be worse.

Rodriguez wrote from real life — from working-class Detroit — long before the world knew his name. And that honesty is why his music still resonates today.

This video is part of Songs of Life — a series exploring lyrics that reflect real human experience, not just hits or charts.

If you’ve ever faced uncertainty when you were supposed to be celebrating…
this song understands you.
