Anastacia - Paid My Dues [the S-Man's Darkstar Mix]Lyrics

You can say what you want about me Wanna do what you want to me But you can not stop me I've been knocked down it's a crazy town Even got a punch in the face in L.A. Ain't nothing in the world that you keep Me from doing what I wanna do 'Cause I'm too proud, I'm too strong Live by the code that you gotta move on Feel no sorry for yourself ain't got nobody nowhere So I (held my head high) Knew I (knew I survive) Well I made it (i made it) I don't hate it (don't hate it) That's 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 can't stop me now I paid my dues So straight back on You cannot stop me I paid my dues Now I'm still tested every day People try to mess with Anastacia Got another think comin' 'cause I handle mine And I thought I better let you know I'm no punk I can't get down I don't 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) Oh (don't hate it) That's 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 can't 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) It's a struggle, you try to bubble So I (held my head high) Knew I (knew I survive) Oh (i made it) (don't hate it) Said that's, just, the, way (i done made it through) (stand on my own two) I said I paid my, I paid my dues Yeah (tried to hold me down) But you can't stop me now (you can't stop me now) (I paid my dues) I paid my, paid my dues (I done made it through) oh (stand on my own two) oh (I paid my dues) I paid my, I paid my dues Yeah (tried to hold me down) But you can't stop me now (you can't stop me now) (I paid my dues) I paid my dues
