All my life, been payin' my dues
Only ‘cause I gamble with so much to lose
Who am I to say if I'm gonna get away
Tryin' to make a livin,' not making any pay
Gotta do what I can to survive
The music is the only thing keeping me alive
But all these cats keep starin' me down
Tryin' a run my a** right out of this town
All these cats keep starin' me down
Tryin' a run my a** right out of this town
I ain't gonna look, I ain't gonna listen
I'm just gonna continue on my mission
Hey, I'm here to stay
You can go ahead and intimidate me
All you're gonna do is really just make me
Try to prove you wrong, try if I must
Sing a little song, leave you in the dust
We coulda been in harmony
But you're just looking for an enemy
All these cats keep starin' me down
Tryin' a run my a** right out of this town
All these cats keep starin' me down
Tryin' a run my a** right out of this town
I ain't gonna look, I ain't gonna listen
I'm just gonna continue on my mission
Hey, I'm here to stay
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
All these cats keep starin' me down
Tryin' a run my a** right out of this town
All these cats keep starin' me down
Tryin' a run my a** right out of this town
I ain't gonna look, I ain't gonna listen
I'm just gonna continue on my mission
Hey, I'm here to stay
All these cats keep starin' me down
Tryin' a run my a** right out of this town
All these cats keep starin' me down
Tryin' a run my a** right out of this town
I ain't gonna look, I ain't gonna listen
I'm just gonna continue on my mission
Hey, I'm here to stay
I'm here to stay
I'm here to stay
