breaking even

[Verse 1]
Yeah I was
Living paycheck to paycheck
Waiting for the middle of the month
Dipping into my savings
Draining my emergency fund
But now there's food on the table and cash in the bank
And there's probably a God who I'm supposed to thank
It's so much better than it was before
Don't need to worry anymore

[Chorus]
'Cause now I'm breaking even
Oh, I'm breaking even
I'm building generational wealth
I used to get ahead of myself
But now I'm breaking even
Yeah, I'm breaking even
Not spending any more of my time
Wondering where I'm gonna get the next dime
Now I'm breaking even

[Verse 2]
There was
A couple nights when i wondered
How to keep a roof over my head
Now I know I should've trusted
That I wouldn't always be in the red
'Cause you'll be taken care of if you're doing it right
But nothing worth having happens overnight
It'll be so much better than it was before
You just gotta wait a little more

[Chorus]
'Cause now I'm breaking even
Oh, I'm breaking even
I'm building generational wealth
I used to get ahead of myself
But now I'm breaking even
Yeah, I'm breaking even
Not spending any more of my time
Wondering where I'm gonna get the next dime
Now I'm breaking even
