lyrics

"Tryin' to Get Paid"

You don't know what it means to be alone
Do you know what it means to be down, broke, or broken

All day long while I struggle and strive
You don't even notice
that I am alive
But it don't matter
You don't have me in chains
and you don't think I know how things are gonna change
Are you still thinking about that 
same old girl and the old dollar bill

Don't you tell me about the good old days
I'm too busy trying' to get paid
I am ready to bring it on home to me
home to me

Do you even know, do you even know how to listen
Tell me have you ever dreamed a dream for someone else besides yourself

You're always talking about what needs to be
But you're too busy talking
You don't really need
But it don't matter
You don't have me in chains
and you don't think I know how things are gonna change
Are you still thinking about that 
same old girl and the old dollar bill

Don't you tell me about the good old days
I'm too busy trying' to get paid
I am ready to bring it on home to me
home to me

Don't you tell me about the good old days
I'm too busy trying' to get paid
I am ready to bring it on home to me
home to me

All day long while I struggle and strive
You don't even notice
that I am alive
But it don't matter
You don't have me in chains
and you don't think I know how things are gonna change
Are you still thinking about that 
same old girl and the old dollar bill

Don't you tell me about the good old days
I'm too busy trying' to get paid
I am ready to bring it on home to me
home to me

Don't you tell me about the good old days
I'm too busy trying' to get paid
I am ready to bring it on home to me
home to me
