Lyrics Cry Tough - The Treatment

Cry Tough

Sixteen years, what have I got
I ain’t got money, and I ain’t got a job
I hate this city, I hate this town
Better get straight because they’re gunnin' you down
Better cry tough
‘Cause I’m a man on a mission
And I’m ready to go
Better cry tough
You better keep yourself from daylight
I’m back on the streets again
I’m back on the streets again
I want it all, and I want it today
No better time to throw my life away
You say I’m crazy, but I’m better than you
You ain’t the one to tell me what to do
Better cry tough
‘Cause I’m a man on a mission
And I’m ready to go
Better cry tough
You better keep yourself from daylight
I’m back on the streets again
I’m back on the streets again
Tell me where you wanna go
I’d just like to know
These gray mothers are getting me down
And the world is turning far too slow
Sixteen years, what have I got
I ain’t got money, and I ain’t got a job
I hate this city, I hate this town
Better get straight ‘cause they’re gunnin' you down
Better cry tough
Better cry tough
Better cry tough
You better keep yourself from daylight
I’m back on the streets again
I’m back on the streets again
(again, again)
Lord, please, can you save my soul
I’m alone in the dark with no place to go
No lifeboat to rescue me
I’m the one with the power to set me free
I want it all, and I want it today
(today, day)
I want it all, and I want it today
I want it all and I want it today
Tell me where you wanna go
I’d just like to know
These are getting me down
And the world is turning far too slow
Better cry tough
‘Cause I’m a man on a mission
And I’m ready to go
Better cry tough
You better keep yourself from daylight
Better cry tough
Cry
Better cry tough
Oh, yeah
Better cry tough
You better keep yourself
I’m back on the streets again
I’m back on the streets again
I want it all, and I want it today
Yeah
I want it, and I want it today, yeah
Oh
I want it all, and I want it today
Whoa
I want it all, and I want it today
