Lyricks]
I'm always tired now cause I'm barely sleepin'
It's either late studio sessions or shows over the weekend
My boy and I we always shut it down like another achievement
But I ask myself after every gig, like Rick, what's the meanin'?
We still dreamin' while gettin' respect
But still work for a check for the
Rent, I don't want fame I just wanna be set
Jumpin' off the one-train on a Monday workin' for chump
Change, and see John behind the bar already like 'damn what's up J?'
I see it's some rough day, he's already getting grilled
Two of the nicest rappers but we know the reality's ill
I dap him up like let's work harder this year, I'm stuck
But it makes me feel better, my partner is here
I clocked in and got the boss already all in my ear
Go mop the floor, put all the empty boxes all over here
It's got me nauseous cause it's better than constant stocking of shots
Should be rockin' concerts a lot, and hearin' all of the cheers
And I'd really hate to trip, but I'm about to go geronimo
Run out the door, and stop livin' my life out so methodical
But I know I can't 'cause I gotta put up the rent
And the problem is my long list of problems just doesn't end
And pun intended when I say that I just need a shot
But I'm here dealing with these drunk
Motherfuckers sayin' they need a shot
Now you see the plot, this 9 to 5 is eating me alive
I realise that in real life I really need a job
I'm drinkin' Sobe's doin' shoulder pops, workin' overtime
SOB's know me as Mr. Adobe Photoshop
I need this photo cropped, that's what I was hired for
When I'm nicer than half these rappers that I'm designing fliers for
You act like you bang, you write like a fighter
Decided to act up, got smacked up, by a graphic designer
What?
You disrespected, asked if there's rapping in China
Cut me some slack, that smack's a reminder
You think that we can't rap?
That's why we have to remind 'em,
Bringin' tsunami waves flow crash with the
Wrath of Poseidon (You know I kill right?)
And I murder shit,
Well let's just combine 'em, you get what I'm sayin'?
(Yeah like Super Saiyan)
Watch the levels get higher
I got the trap set, scratch the match head, so we can start a fire
Now that's lit, nah, that's it for the other side
Look I'm done cuttin' limes
And I don't want to make another flier, another sign
I'm tired of being overlooked
I just wanna shine
