Eric Benet - Paid Lyrics
(feat. Eddie Levert)Every day it gets harderJust the cost of livin' pullin' me downI try to stay above waterBut these bills got me, 'bout to drownI can't keep livin' this lifeRobbed and beat up but still ...I just been fightin' this fightBut I don't know what's the point of it allI'll keep a positive mindBut it's hard to flowWhen your cash is lowI'm workin' days and nightsStill I can't get up out of this holeBecause I gets paid on the first, paid on the lastAnd struggle all through the middleEvery month I gets paid on the first, paid on the lastAnd struggle all through the middleM O N E Y never seem to multiply for meAin't nothin' movin' 'cause I keep losin'M O N E Y never seem to multiply for meAin't nothin' movin' 'cause I keep losin'They make us know that they own usThough I swear it's more than slaveryThey give each other a bonusWhile our children live in povertyWhat a shame, what a shameI keep on teachin' my kidsYou work hard, you'll go far in this lifeBut the reality isI'm slavin' on to the bone to surviveI'd like to take you away, girlBut I just can't seeHow that's gonna beDon't like to slave in this way, girlSomebody ..., set her freeBecause I gets paid on the first, paid on the lastAnd struggle all through the middleEvery month I gets paid on the first, paid on the last(Workin' hard, workin' quite hard)Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the lastAnd then I struggle through the middleEvery month I gets paid on the first, paid on the lastAnd struggle all through the middleM O N E Y never seem to multiply for meNot for me, not for meM O N E Y never seem to multiply for meAin't nothin' movin', I keep losin'I'll keep a positive mindBut it's hard to flowWhen your cash is lowI'm workin' days overtimeStill I can't get up out of this holeBecause I gets paid on the first, paid on the lastAnd struggle all through the middleEvery month I gets paid on the first, paid on the lastOn my back strugglin'Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the lastI just struggle through the middleEvery month I gets paid on the first, paid on the lastOn my back strugglin', strugglin'M O N E Y never seem to multiply for meNot a damn thing movin', noM O N E Y never seem to multiply for meBaby, babyM O N E Y never seem to multiply for meAin't nothin' movin' 'cause I keep losin'M O N E Y never seem to multiply for meMoney, money, M O N E Y
