Short Changed

You can see it in my (eyes)
You can see it in my (eyes)
I've been living my life feeling like I've been short changed
I just know that I've been short changed

You can see it in my (eyes)
You can see it in my (eyes)
I've been living my life feeling like I've been short changed
I just know that I've been short changed

I put myself out on a limb for my people
I do whatever on a whim for my people
And still I suffer for it
I guess I'm just a sucker for it (I guess I'm just a sucker for it)
I'm like the very lowest roam with my people
But I'd take a bullet from a gun for my people
And how I suffer for it
I always seem to suffer for it (I guess I'm just a sucker for it)
See, see it's like the minute that I'm in it I go one hundred percent and it's never reciprocated, though I shouldn't resent it
I know, but the tears still flow, oh
And even when no one is looking I'm here bending over backwards when things are get heavy for me all I want is for them to have my back but they don't
No they don't

I put myself out on a limb with my music
They told me I could never win with my music
And yeah I suffered for (Yeah you suffered for it)
You better believe I suffered for it (I guess I'm just a sucker for it)
Shit, I dug myself into a pit with my music
'Cause I don't compromise for shit with my music
And guess who suffers for it? (Better believe I suffer for it)
And that's why I'm like fuck 'em for it (That's why I'm like fuck 'em for it)
I know you're putting it all into your passion, but still you're stuck there and struggling while other people get rich of the bastardization of it, you try and you try but life just doesn't let up
Yeah, I know
You burn every paycheck the same day you got it
And the only thing you've made yet is the strain on your pocket
Yeah I know, wanna know how I know?
