Not Enough Lyrics
Seven days underpaid
Gotta give it up
Got no time for this life that
I’m livin’ up
Shackled down, kicked around,
Now slave to the grind
Need some time for myself
I’ll give you anything that you want me to
If you don’t have the time so
I’ll get up with you
If you don’t understand man
You’ve got to believe
There is too much of you but
There is not enough of me
There is not enough of me
Same old song world moves
On while I’m still in bed
Meet tomorrow today just to
Get ahead
Jump the gun on the run,
I’m the only one
Who thinks that
I’m fallin’ behind?
I’ll give you anything that
You want me to
But I don’t have the time
So I’ll get up with you
If you don’t understand
Man you’ve got to believe
There is too much of you
But there is not enough of me
There is not enough of me
I’ll give you anything that you want me to
But I don’t have the time so I’ll
Get up with you
If you don’t understand man
You’ve got to believe
There is too much of you there
Is too much of me
I’ll give you anything that you want me to
But I don’t have the time so I’ll
Get up with you
If you don’t understand man
You’ve got to believe
There is too much of you but there
Is not enough of me
Gotta give it up
Got no time for this life that
I’m livin’ up
Shackled down, kicked around,
Now slave to the grind
Need some time for myself
I’ll give you anything that you want me to
If you don’t have the time so
I’ll get up with you
If you don’t understand man
You’ve got to believe
There is too much of you but
There is not enough of me
There is not enough of me
Same old song world moves
On while I’m still in bed
Meet tomorrow today just to
Get ahead
Jump the gun on the run,
I’m the only one
Who thinks that
I’m fallin’ behind?
I’ll give you anything that
You want me to
But I don’t have the time
So I’ll get up with you
If you don’t understand
Man you’ve got to believe
There is too much of you
But there is not enough of me
There is not enough of me
I’ll give you anything that you want me to
But I don’t have the time so I’ll
Get up with you
If you don’t understand man
You’ve got to believe
There is too much of you there
Is too much of me
I’ll give you anything that you want me to
But I don’t have the time so I’ll
Get up with you
If you don’t understand man
You’ve got to believe
There is too much of you but there
Is not enough of me

i love all of 3 doors down.. i think this song means that there is not enough of him to go around.. that life is passing him by... and he is being pulled in too many directions.. and the one place he needs to be.. there is not enough of him there...
yes is also think so life is just makeing plans for him he cant control it...hed like to do more things hes not being forced to do
i think its about having a bad job and a greedy kid or family member
I can totally see bad job.
It's about a worker standing up to his (I say his because the narrator is male, but it can apply to either gender) boss who treats him like a dog when he's working. He tells the boss that there's too much of the boss's kind and not enough of his own kind.
As Brad introduces the song live in Munich 2002, "This song is just about being overworked and underpaid" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9l5eOajwvk
