See Through Me

They see me from the outside, looking in \r\nBut they don’t know where I’ve been\r\nThey see me lookin’ well on the outside\r\nThinkin’ that I got it all lined up\r\n\r\nWhat they don’t know, can’t hurt ‘em\r\nBut I know this ain’t working\r\nWant them to know me\r\nCuz I know that they care for me and\r\nNo one below me\r\n\r\nWhere’s my money? Make it feel alright\r\nGonna take me to the river and do whatever I like\r\nHave my back and I’ll have yours\r\nGonna take us to the river, we left the shore\r\n\r\nWade through the river, we left the shore\r\nWade through the river, we left the shore\r\n\r\nEven if it means they can see through me\r\nRollin’ up my life in tobacco and weed\r\nHow long will I wait for peace today?\r\nHow long ‘til I get paid?\r\n\r\nEven if it means they can see through me\r\nRollin’ up my life in tobacco and weed\r\nHow long will it take to eat today?\r\nHow long ‘til I get paid?\r\n\r\nSee me lookin’ fly down the street\r\nThey don’t know that I’m so lonely\r\nMany months gone by, no checks arrived\r\nI can’t even eat\r\n\r\nI am just one person\r\nSometimes I show when I am hurting\r\nYou know me, you care for me\r\nYou’re not below me\r\n\r\nWhere’s my money? Make it feel alright\r\nGonna take me to the river and do whatever I like\r\nHave my back and I’ll have yours\r\nGonna take us to the river, we left the shore\r\n\r\nWade through the river, we left the shore\r\nWade through the river, we left the shore\r\n\r\nEven if it means they can see through me\r\nRollin’ up my life in tobacco and weed\r\nHow long will I wait for peace today?\r\nHow long ‘til I get paid?\r\n\r\nEven if it means they can see through me\r\nRollin’ up my life in tobacco and weed\r\nHow long will it take to eat today?\r\nHow long ‘til I get paid?\r\n\r\nEven if it means they can see through me\r\nRollin’ up my life in tobacco and weed\r\nHow long will I wait for peace today?\r\nHow long ‘til I get paid?\r\nHow long ‘til I get paid?
