Got a raise but now I’m only making 6 more dollars on my check.

So i got a 2 dollar raise last week and was thinking I'll have an extra 50 bucks in my pocket but come payday. I looked at my after taxes pay and i am only making $6.26 more on my check than i use to. My question is, am i going to get more back on my taxes if my living situation is the same but they are taking more taxes out? I don't see a benefit for me but mostly for uncle sam. My extra 80 dollars a week just turned into 6 bucks a week after taxes. Hoping i get more back since the tax refund has been getting smaller.
