Contest Brief
Here's a song my band is working on:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qKm72z0m39cvvTRQC0qrOl-Hw34nskrK
Your task is to write the lyrics for the second verse. Right now I'm singing the first verse twice.
Try to match the vocals part, but not 100% precisely - it's even interesting when the first and the second verses don't have identical form.
Here are the lyrics:

The song is about respecting and defending boundaries. The first verse is about my ex-employer who tried to push me as a freelancer and pay me less by the hour than I asked for (here at freelancer by the way :)
So the first verse is about money, but the second verse doesn't have to be. You can describe any situation when someone's pushing it and you're telling them to back off. Instead of "you say I charge too much" in the second chorus you could say "you say I want too much" so it makes sense if your lyrics aren't about money. You'll have to replace "low on cash" with something appropriate, too. Or, you can stick to the money subject and develop in some other way - then you can keep the lyrics of the second chorus unchanged.
Eventually I'll post the final result on my channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/MichaelRybak
This contest is not a one time thing: I'm looking for long term partners, so it's your chance to show off your skills, get more orders from me in the future, and get your work featured in videos like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=h2SvcKL9riw
Looking forward to your work!
