Stretched for Cash

[font=Times New Roman]Sticks and stones can break me
But your words fall on deaf ears
Feel it in your bones can you see
In these eyes your lies will never cause tears
Today my minds set on tomorrow
Tell myself I don’t feel the sorrow
And day after day comes around
Now a days I hear music and its just a sound
You get so caught up in your life
Don’t know to stay or go so I roll the dice
I’m careless yet so cautious
Not to feel the hurt that I knows there
The hurt everyone has in deep
Whether you know its there
Or you just don’t care
I’ve realised its always on my mind before I sleep
And into my day to day life its beginning to seep
There’s no way to turn back the hands of time,
And you never know what your doing wrong till its done
Its true life isn’t kind,
It’s like a battle you got to fight till you’ve won
But if could go back I don’t think I would
‘Cuz these hard times are what’s keeping me alive
And these fucked up minds are what’s making me strive

Satisfaction doesn’t come cheap
And attention ain’t so easy to keep
What’s the bet in the end you’ll give in
In the end I’ll get back everything I’ve given
Times a hundred fold
You know I’ll never fold
That why the face I wear is so deceiving
Let’s see how you like me when I’m just receiving
No it’s not cheap but I’m willing to pay
You fuckers complaining you never get laid
Just look at the bigger picture
You’ll be paying for my signature
If you never want the good life you will never get it
In this world your fucking actions are noted
But your words don’t mean shit
No need to sugar coat it

Everyone’s trying to pull me down,
Want me to get drawn under and drown
Got to keep going
And start showing
I’m better than the rest
I might even be the best
‘Cuz I can last the distance
Take every beating life throws and
Still kept my conscience
There will always be highs and lows
But I won’t give up till I really try
Never give up till I die
Motivation never going to loose its touch with me
And if you don’t think much of me
How’d you like the be stretched for cash
So broke, contemplating stealing a stash

Don’t think you understand what I am
I use my past to make me stronger
And what you say hurts me no longer
I keep my head high and you will never see me cry
In motion life goes so fast
Emotions break me from the past
The feeling of regrets what’s making me last
When I’m sober won’t hand this responsibility over
But fucked up I just wish my brain would shut up
But I’ll never spew out what should never be threw out
If you keep it in it’s like a force seeping in
To your brain it’s what keeps me refrain
from folding in and giving up
If you never fill your cup
How are you meant to drink your rewards up
Fight the fatigue and give it all you’ve got
Your hands are tied so loosen the knot
And live for you, and what’s to come
There’s no turning back once its done
