Hard times done creeped up in my home and I'm standing all alone
Can't break. Won't cry. I try to stay strong, but my back's against the wall, think I'm gonna fall.
And Mr. Powerman is turning off my lights
I hear my baby crying and gunshots in the night
My car got gas bills bigger than the note
Got my degree, but I can barely stay afloat
Living check to check
Living check to check
Staying straight, keeping right but my pocket's empty
Living check to check
Living check to check
No I won't lose sight, but the streets are tempting me
Oh Lord, please send an angel down to me
Dear Lord, please send an angel
I know I ain't the only one who tryin to get by
Looking for the brighter days just like mama said
Could lose it but I won't I'm gonna hold my head high, cause I know these ends will meet
I gotta find my way
It's my reality another says insane
That man is wasting while I'm sitting counting change
Won't lie up on my back though just to make a dime
Send an angel to me Lord
I need a little peace of mind
Living check to check
Living check to check
Staying straight, keeping right but my pocket's empty
Living check to check
Living check to check
No I won't lose sight, but the streets are tempting me
Oh Lord, please send an angel down to me
Dear Lord, please send an angel
I need to feed my babies, still gotta pay the rent
Ain't even cashed my check and yet bills got my money spent
Maybe I'll ask my neighbors or pawn this damn tv
What I really need right now is God to send an angel to me
Oh Lord, please send an angel down to me
Dear Lord, please send an angel
Oh Lord, please send an angel down to me (Oh Lord. Yes Lord send your angels down)
Dear Lord, please send an angel (Because I'm living check to check)
Living check to check
Living check to check
Staying straight, keeping right but my pocket's empty
Living check to check
Living check to check
No I won't lose sight, but the streets are tempting me
