Just Can't Take No More

Can't Take No More - The Skints

To share your life's work

Is your only reward

You live by the pen

And you die by the sword

I'm struggling to breathe

As I fall through the floor

And I just can't take no more

I can't get no money

For the music I play

I can't get no respect

For the things that I say

I'm building cobwebs

Just to blow them away

And I just can't take no more

When I was a youth

This was never the plan

Thought that things would

Turn out better

Once I grew into a man

Now I'm crawling in the dirt

Because I'm too afraid to stand

And I just can't take no more

They say the struggle for power

Will turn your heart sour

Every hour of your day

If you just can't be there

Inevitably you will crumble

And blow away

Alone ah yeah

Alone ah yeah

'Cause there ain't no time

For danger

And there ain't no time

For love

When we met

We both were strangers

Well I guess once push

Comes to show

I don't wanna go

Back to a world

I don't wanna go

Back to a world

I don't wanna go

Back to a world

Without you woah

We spend these days living

Life on the road

We take what we can get

And try to do as we're told

There's a glimmer in the distance

But it's never paved in gold

And we just can't take no more

There's no guarantees

For this music we play

We don't want to dissect

Everything that we say

No we don't believe in java

But we're still writing dub reggae

And we just can't take no more

They say the struggle for power

Will turn your heart sour

Every hour of your days

If you just can't be there

Inevitably you will crumble

And blow away

Alone ah yeah

Alone ah yeah

'Cause there ain't no time

For danger

And there ain't no time

For love

When we met

We both were strangers

Well I guess once push

Comes to show

I don't wanna go

Back to a world

I don't wanna go

Back to a world

I don't wanna go

Back to a world

Without you woah

'Cause there ain't no time

For danger

And there ain't no time

For love

When we met

We both were strangers

Well I guess once push

Comes to show

I don't wanna go

Back to a world

I don't wanna go

Back to a world

I don't wanna go

Back to a world

Without you wooooaaahh
