Paid My Dues (Karaoke Lead Vocal Demo) (In the Style of Anastacia) - Backtrack Professional Karaoke Band

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 LA

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

Life by the code that you gotta move on

Feel excited for yourself

And got nobody no way

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 trusted every day

People try to mess with Anastacia

Gotta nothing in common

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)

Oahh (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

But I won't live in fear

You try to steal my shine

But first they wanna build you up

Then they tear you down

It's a struggle, you try to bubble

So I...

(Held my head high)

Knew I (Knew I survive)

Oahh (I made it)

(Don't hate it)

Said that's just the wayyyyy

(I done made it through)

(Stand on my own two)

I said I paid my, I paid my dues

Yeahhhhh

(Tried to hold me down)

But you can't stop me now

I paid my, paid my dues

(I done made it through) oahhh

(Stand on my own two) oh

(I paid my dues) I paid my, I paid my dues

Yeahh

(Tried to hold me down)

But you can't stop me now

I paid my dues
