People Don’t Get What They Deserve

[Verse 1]
When I was a child I believed what they told me (every word)
"To each one shall come what each one shall earn"
And if I worked hard nobody could hold me (hold me)
And cheaters will fail, that's what they all learned
(cheaters never prosper)
There is a man who is born with a fortune
A hard day's work he's never done (livin' on easy street)
He lives from the sweat of other men's labor
As he sips his champagne and lays in the sun

[Bridge]
Money don't follow sweat
Money don't follow brains
Money don't follow deeds of reason

[Hook]
People don't get what they deserve (no they don't)
People don't get what they deserve

[Verse 2]
There is a man who lives like a saint (so innocent)
He works from daybreak to late in the night (work, work)
He's never stolen, he's never been lazy (not a day in his life)
To feed his children is always a fight (work work work)
I try to do right by all of God's children (all of God's children)
I work very hard for all I could afford
But I don't pretend for one single moment (no)
That what I get is my just reward (life ain't fair no)

[Bridge]
Money don't follow sweat
Money don't follow brains
Money don't follow deeds of reason

[Hook]
