I got kicked out, of school   But that was years ago   My car won’t start   I’m still living at home   I got a dollar to my name (yeah well I got two)   But money means shit when you’re twenty-two   I lost my girl (well I lost mine too)   But it won’t bring me down…      Won’t bring me down   This shit that I go through   Won’t bring me down   Even though you know that things ain’t right   Down, it's on my side   And I’m younger then you   I guess you cant bring me down      Now I’m back at work and it all sinks in   My job it sucks I wanna throw it in so,   I give it away, give it away, give it away   I want it to go back to yesterday   So I call your phone   But no one’s home   I guess, another wasted moment   Things aren’t what they used to be   I tried so hard to make you see   It’s my life, this is me   Here we go, here we go      Won’t bring me down   This shit that I go through   Won’t bring me down   Even though you know that things ain’t right   Down, it's on my side   And I’m younger then you   I guess you can’t bring me down      Can’t bring me down, Can’t bring me down   You know were talking about it every one in the town knows about it   I try to spit this shit backward but I’m not Missy Elliott I ain’t quite there yet   They say (they say what)   What a waste of time   But I say (listen up)   It’s the time of our lives      Don’t bring me down (that’s right, get up)   Don’t bring me down (here we go)      So I call your phone   This time your home   I hope we can work this out   Things ain’t what they used to be   I tried so hard to make you see   It’s my life, this is me      Won’t bring me down   This shit that I go through   Won’t bring me down   Even though you know that things ain’t right   Down, it's on my side   And I’m younger then you   I know you won’t bring me down      Bring me down (what she say, what you do)   Bring me down (what she say, what you do)   Bring me down (what she say, what you do)   Bring me down
