You Get What You Paid For Lyrics

I'm living below my means

Don't ask me for a thing

You won't get no play

I'm steadily moving upstream

Hope the wind blows this way

I just need a push

Kindly point me in the right direction

Before I fly by this intersection

The last thing I need is your correction

But I did what I could

Now I'm open to suggestions

They've seen it all done it all slime

But I'm still taking my time

So I think twice

And so you should be nice

Take that road you roll the dice

Hmm

But I won't flex on 'em

Just remind ya'll how you slept on him right?

Stop right there at the light Hmm

You should probably take your own advice

But you get what you pay for

Sometimes hard work don't pay

But you get what you paid for

Don't tell me that you weren't paid

But you get what you pay for

Sometimes hard work don't pay

But you get what you paid for

Just don't tell me you weren't paid

I'm living above my means

Don't tell me it's obscene

Can't a man dream?

One's not enough I need three

You can go and take the backseat

Yeah

You can go and tell the flatfeet

It's not gonna change the backbeat

You ain't gon' get it past me

The end of the line is my street

Uh

Ok save it for a rainy day

But don't tell me what the weatherman say

That's someone who never gets paid

That's someone who digs their own grave

Better yet let it rain on their parade

While I'm sitting on the beach

In the shade

Still they say

Bad weather's headed our way

Plan it all out

Still someone gets paid

But you get what you pay for

Sometimes hard work don't pay

But you get what you paid for

Just don't tell me you weren't paid
