Lyricist:Lavonne Alford, Clayton Gavin
Yo, goin' out, we light this J up right here For all the hard workin' folk Cross this country, cross the world For everybody on the grind everyday nine to five, eight to twelve You know how we do it hand to hand, whatever, yo, yo
I been workin' all my life but ain't got nothin' to show I ain't tellin' you nothin' you don't already know I been workin' all my life but ain't got nothin' to show Like this world just don't want us to grow
I been workin' all my life but ain't got nothin' to show I ain't tellin' you nothin' you don't already know I been workin' all my life but ain't got nothin' to show Wanna run up in the white house and kick in the door, woh ooo oh
What a nigga gonna eat when the refrigerator empty? Work all week let the bossman pimp me Can't pay no rent till the fifteenth, landlord call the police to evict me Lookin' for a job in the want ads Have you ever been to jail? Know they gone ask Ever took a piss test that you didn't pass? In between jobs in the past? How you get cash? I done worked over hot ass stoves, I done picked up trash off roads Winter time in the streets and the cold Many times had to sleep in my clothes on the floor What you know bout bein' po' seein' most of yo kinfolk be on dope? Ain't nobody in the hood got no hope in this fucked up system And that's why we don't vote Still payin' niggaz four twenty five, how the fuck we supposed to survive? I'm close to the edge, government takin' most of my bread In taxes might as well have this close to my head Make a nigga wanna wild out Run up in the white house with the gouge out, click clack Give me my shit back beeyatch
I been workin' all my life but ain't got nothin' to show I ain't tellin' you nothin' you don't already know I been workin' all my life but ain't got nothin' to show Like this world just don't want us to grow

Puttin' on my uniform, just a number on a W four form
See where I'm from it's a few ways out Either rappin' or sports either dope or the casket You can work to the bone but don't put all yo eggs in one basket We don't never get a piece of the pie, work fifty years, retire then die Stay po', rich folks is the criminal but you don't wanna hear me tho' so Thank God it's Friday, ain't it what we live for? Nigga gotta get up out the plantation Same job that my pop had before me Imma pass it down to my seed fucked up situation Make a nigga wanna wild out Run up in the white house with the gouge out, click clack Give me my shit back beeyatch

My J O B Is just like a plantation They owe me But got me fillin' out this application
My J O B Is just like a plantation They owe me And got me fillin' out this application
What I look like?
