krafty - skint on pay day lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
uh, ayo, i got a question
let me know if the way we’re living is the way that we’re supposed to be living
uh, is it worth it?

[verse 1]
i plan a life of success where nothing i lack
and acquire enough so i can give some of it back
spent so much time chasing dreams with my eyes closed
i forgot to wake up and read the f-cking sign though

and it’s getting old, engaged to a job
ignoring my calling, putting everything on hold, oh
and so they tell me that i can’t dream
but what the f-ck do they know when they aren’t me?

[bridge x2]
without a penny to my name
but i ain’t the only one, i know that many feel the same
stretched so thin, tryna make ends meet
funny how money makes us wanna be set free

[chorus]
oh, it happened again
ain’t it strange how paper can cause pain?
oh, it happened again
look at me, i’m skint on pay day

i’m fighting for the life that i wanna live
but they take every hour that i give

[verse 2]
society’s set up in a way that’s keeping us skint
so we get stoned, ’cause living on this rock ain’t cheaper than flint
the very substance we need to survive
is natural to the earth, but it ain’t cheaper than fries

you pay 99p for some chips
almost two pound for water when we need it to live
and over the years, we start to acquire debt
i ain’t met an adult human in the real world i admire yet (what?)

[bridge x2]
without a penny to my name
but i ain’t the only one, i know that many feel the same
stretched so thin, tryna make ends meet
funny how money makes us wanna be set free

[chorus]
oh, it happened again
ain’t it strange how paper can cause pain?
oh, it happened again
look at me, i’m skint on pay day

i’m fighting for the life that i wanna live
but they take every hour that i give

[verse 3]
tell me the price of your time
is it 6.50 an hour in a job that you don’t like?
we’re sacrificing our minds
fulfilling someone else’s dream, is that a problem in your eyes?

and we ain’t taught to be thinkers, we ain’t taught to be rulers
only reason they school us is to fool us
ain’t it swell?
1% is rich as f-ck, the rest believe that they can’t change the world (d-mn)

[chorus]
oh, it happened again
ain’t it strange how paper can cause pain?
oh, it happened again
look at me, i’m skint on pay day

i’m fighting for the life that i wanna live
but they take every hour that i give

[outro]
ah sh-t, i better get to work, f-ck
