American Privilege Lyrics

by Allen Stone

[Hook]
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
(Cash that paycheck, spend it all)

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e127616-allen_stone~american_privilege_lyrics.html ]
[Verse 1]
Oh, it doesn't seem right
That I - I was born white
And my parents don't fight
Told me they love me each night
I don't lose sleep for kids sewing my sheets
Or the ones stitching my sneaks
As long as I can buy 'em both cheap

[Chorus] - x2
American privilege is blurring my vision
Inherited sickness

[Verse 2]
Everyday I, piss money away, I'm a material slave
Just trynna polish this ball and this chain
Cause I don't think twice, just keep it out of my sight
Bitch don't kill my vibe
No, bitch don't kill my vibe

[Chorus] - x2

[Bridge]
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
(Cash that paycheck, spend it all)
(Build that house up big and tall)
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
As long as I stay comfortable
(Cash that paycheck, spend it all)
On shit I'll throw away next fall
(Build that house up big and tall)
Break the bank to build the wall
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
As long as I stay comfortable

[Chorus] - x2

(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
