Foster the People "Pay the man" lyrics

Pay the man

[Intro]What you need? What you need?What you need, man? What you need?What you need? Yeah, what'd you see?What'd you see? Yeah, oh yeah

[Verse 1]Well I need a little something to cool my head offNeed a little something to cool my head off, yeahNeed a little somethingBecause I've been running from a truceWe’ll never loseLies come from loose teethTied to the nooseClimbing up my own tree hoping it can holdAll the things I’ve seen but have chosen to ignoreWell, I said, well, I believe I’ve been well fed, yeahBut the wolf’s not dead

[Chorus]Say what you love, it’s alrightDon’t be afraid to find your lightEmbrace the dayAt night, we’re here to fightWe on the wild againAnd you have the nameOf someone I loveYou said, just keep it trueLift up your nameSeasons changeYou know it’ll never be the sameWe’ll see the sun againAnd before it fadesI just wanna say that I love you

[Verse 2]Pay the man, pay the manGot to pay the manRun as fast as you canCall out to God, praise to the Most HighCall out for help cause I’m playing with fireCall out on mountains till my voice goes faintEchoes through time then comes back with new strength

[Interlude]And when it’s rainingWe’re sailingOh yeah, we’re sailingWe’re sailing

[Verse 3]I'm off the leashI go to war for peaceCause I’ve been touching everything that I canI got blood on my handsGuess I’m going deaf from what the crowd is sayin'Ah please forgive me I don’t understandWe all believe we’ve been well fed, yeah

[Pre-Chorus 2]The deaf man heard what the mute man saidThen they all followed where the blind man led

[Chorus]Say what you love, it's alrightDon’t be afraid to find your lightEmbrace the dayAt night, we’re here to fightWe on the wild againAnd you have the nameOf someone I loveYou said, just keep it trueLift up your nameLift up your nameSeasons changeYou know it’ll never be the sameWe’ll see the sun againAnd before it fadesI just wanna say that I love you

[Bridge](Pay the man, pay the man, pay the man)Pay the man, you got to pay the manPay the man, you got to pay the manPay the manWell I was laughing real hard until my teeth fell outLaughing real hard until my teeth fell outI was laughing real hard until my teeth fell outNeed a little something, yeahNeed a little something(A little something, little something, little something)

[Chorus]You said, just keep it trueLift up your nameSeasons changeYou know it’ll never be the sameWe’ll see the sun againAnd before it fadesI just wanna say that I love you

[Outro]Can’t you see?Can’t see meCan’t see meCan’t see meAnd can’t see meCan’t see meWe all run when the light comes onAm I wrong for wanting it all?But I warned you
