Lyrics to: Paid My Dues
By Artist: Anastacia
[spoken:]
You can say what you want about me
Wanna do what you want to me
But you can not stop me
Ive been knocked down
Its a crazy town
Even got a punch in the face in la
Aint nothing in the world that you keep
Me from doing what I wanna do
cause Im too proud, Im too strong
Live by the code that you gotta move on
Feeling sorry for yourself
Aint got nobody nowhere
So i...
(held my head high)
Knew I (knew I survive)
Well I made it (I made it)
I dont hate it (dont hate it)
Thats just the way it goes
Yeah
I done made it through
Stand on my own two
I paid my dues, yeah
Tried to hold me down
You cant stop me now
I paid my dues
[spoken:]
So straight back on
You cannot stop me
I paid my dues
Now Im still trusted every day
People try to mess with anastacia
Got another think comin
Cause I handle mine
And I thought I better let you know
Im no punk I cant get down
I dont give a damn about abuse around
That was just fine til now
So i...
(held my head high)
Knew I (knew I survive)
Well I made it (I made it)
Oahh (dont hate it)
Thats just the way it goes
Yeah
I done made it through
Stand on my own two
I paid my dues
Yeah yeah
Tried to hold me down
You cant stop me now
I paid my dues, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Took so long to get me here (here)
But I wont live in fear (fear)
You try to steal my shine (shine)
But first they wanna build you up (up)
Then they tear you down (down)
Its a struggle, you try to bubble
So i...
(held my head high)
Knew I (knew I survive)
Oahh (I made it)
(dont hate it)
Said thats - just - the - wayyyyy
(I done made it through)
(stand on my own two)
I said I paid my, I paid my dues
Yeahhhhh
(tried to hold me down)
But you cant stop me now (you cant stop me now)
(I paid my dues) I paid my, paid my dues
(I done made it through) oahhh
(stand on my own two) oh
(I paid my dues) I paid my, I paid my dues
Yeahh (tried to hold me down)
But you cant stop me now (you cant stop me now)
(I paid my dues) I paid my dues
