I knew that it would gonna be that way
My life in music haven't started today
I'm proud to play with my head way up high
And this I'd like to see you guys all try

You can use your money to buy dignity
Well, I can deal frustration
But if you'd like to keep it on this way
Prepare yourself for the

Price you gonna pay
The price you gonna pay
The price you gonna pay
The price you gonna pay

That's ok if you invest in gear
New shirts, pickups, or signature strings
But talent you can't find it on a shelf
Unless someone can buy a whole crowd for you

And they'll pretend they love you
And they'll pretend they care
They'll make you feel so goddamn special

But when you're on your own
And all your money's gone
I hate to say but I have told you so

You can use your money to buy dignity
'Cause I can deal frustration
But if you'd like to keep it on this way
Prepare yourself for the

Price you gonna pay
The price you gonna pay
The price you gonna pay
The price you gonna pay

Go!

Talent you can't find it on a shelf
Talent you can't find it on a shelf
Unless someone can buy a whole crowd for you
