Lately Lyrics by Amon (USA)

2017

Verse 1:
You graduated college ain't you?
Did what you supposed to cuz your momma spanked you
See all them whippings earned a title belt
I'm the world champion but no one else knows it yet
Been this way just been going through it lately
I am with this art is my career but it is not paying me daily
And this rent 480
Car payment 480
That's damn near a thousand
I can't afford to be lazy
And i just lost my gig due to my skin complexion
Like fuck y'all complex called and they want to ask questions
Like Amon "Why do you work so hard?"
Cuz i do this for every single creative who hates they day job
But we need this money like who else is gone fund me?
Told my family my dreams and they looked at me funny
I looked back at them "So Do you do what you love?"
No answer
So, who the fuck you finna judge?

Chorus:
Lately, I've been going through it lately!
Who's going to save me? (x2)
Just got laid off
I ain't take no days off
But all these hard times
Gone have to pay me off

Bridge:
I said i hate my job but i need this money (x4)

Verse 2:
Everybody take Ls mine seem to come in two's
I am in hell with four Ls let me set the mood
Everything i do go in sideways
I take a step forward but my back is turned the wrong way
Rushed a relationship status that i wasn't prepared
A big butt and a smile that made my vision impaired
Now we don't even talk
She says she needs more
Time and attention
Time is money that's two items i'm missing
Now all i got is my prayers
I see art as my savior
Parking a ticket a band to pay a minimum wages
But dollars and cents
Don't even feed the poor
If spoon feed the rich why the hell do they need more?
I'm so stressed out
Faded denim
I needed answers
Kind of like every patient who is diagnosed with forms of cancer
Why me?
What did i do to deserve?
What don't kill you makes you stronger
I guess that message needs a little bit of service


Chorus:
Lately, I've been going through it lately!
Who's going to save me? (x2)
Just got laid off
I ain't take no days off
But all these hard times
Gone have to pay me off

Bridge:
I said i hate my job but i need this money (x4)

Chorus:
Lately, I've been going through it lately!
Who's going to save me? (x2)
Just got laid off
I ain't take no days off
But all these hard times
Gone have to pay me off

Bridge:
I said i hate my job but i need this money (x4)
