Money on My Mind

מילים

[Intro] Yeah Another day, same promise Keep moving [Verse 1] Alarm cuts through the room, coffee going cold Steel-toe by the doorway, jacket getting old Rent due on the table, groceries running thin I carry every worry, then I clock back in Boss says, "Almost Friday," like that pays the cost I count what I can save, then I count what I lost Still I lace these boots, still I take that ride Got a family in my thoughts and a fire inside [Pre-Chorus] I don't need a throne, I need a little room A safer kind of life for the people in my view Every hour takes a piece, but I won't let it show If the door stays locked, I'll build another road [Chorus] I work and work until I die I work to keep us all alive Money on my mind, mm, money on my mind No easy road, no finish line I turn the pressure into drive Money on my mind, mm, money on my mind [Verse 2] Lunch break in the parking lot, numbers on my phone Trying to make a little more without leaving home My hands are rough from holding on to everything I made I learned a dollar means much more when a promise gets paid I watched good people disappear beneath a stack of bills So I keep my head down low and sharpen up my will Not chasing gold for strangers, not begging for applause I want the lights to stay on and some peace behind these walls [Pre-Chorus] I don't need a throne, I need a little room A safer kind of life for the people in my view Every hour takes a piece, but I won't let it show If the door stays locked, I'll build another road [Chorus] I work and work until I die I work to keep us all alive Money on my mind, mm, money on my mind No easy road, no finish line I turn the pressure into drive Money on my mind, mm, money on my mind [Bridge] One more shift, one more plan One more chance to change the hand If tomorrow asks for more I'll be standing at the door [Final Chorus] I work and work until I die I work to keep us all alive Money on my mind, mm, money on my mind No easy road, no finish line I turn the pressure into drive Money on my mind, mm, money on my mind Money on my mind Still alive [Outro] Keep moving Keep moving
