Lyrics
Too many people causing problems
By taking money they don?t deserve
While other people are going hungry,
Can barely make it on what they earn
Well I get so mad cause I don?t know what I can do
I keep hopin? you?ll get what you?re due
Hope something?s left for us when you?re through
Cause if you keep doin? wrong, it?ll all come back to you
To you, to you, back to you
To you, to you, back to you
You say one thing then do another
A different story every day
I can?t escape a sinking feeling
That you?ve always cheated people this way
You all know what you?re doing is wrong
You?ve been living this way for too long
You grab your money then just run along
Yeah, if you keep doing wrong it?ll all come back to you
What you say? I ain?t greedy
I only want something of my own
And three jobs is too many
Been a month since I?ve even been home
You don?t hear us, you don?t listen
Too busy yappin? on your cell phone
But just wait the day?s coming
When you just might have to face us alone
Well I get so mad cause I don?t know what I can do
I keep hopin? you?ll get what you?re due
Hope something?s left for us when you?re through
Cause if you keep don? wrong, it?ll all come back to you
To you, to you, back to you
To you, to you, back to you
