Lil B - The Working Man Lyrics
Yeah, this for the working manYou know I got a plan I gotta get a job somehow, you feel me?I'mma stay positive though, I want you to listen to my storyShoutout to Lil BI'm gon' wake up late and I hate the morningWhen I hear the birds chirp that mean its way too earlyI'm throwing water on my face and I get the tableI got a wife and two kids, no jobs no cableBut I'm still so happy and I'm willing and ableNobody can judge me 'cus I'm tryna get stableI live positive and I listen to Lil BI swear to God I'm going to make it out the hood, you'll seeI put fire in the house, smoke come out the chimneyI got wood in the back, my campfire too friendlyI'm tryna get a job and see what's openWhen I look at my kids I wanna get 'em out OaklandThere was a shootout around them cornerTold my wife, "stay humble" I don't want her harassed by thugsMade something out of nothing, get it? We made something out of nothingShoutsout to Lil BWhat we gon' do tonight? If I pray to God we gon' be alrightSay "cut the welfare", how the ***** we finna eat with no welfare there?Sup mom, yeah, shit I'm back in the hood it's a bright dayI gotta get my shit together, I'm stuck in this mother*****in' world foreverNobody gon' care for a nigga that's deadLift the frame, *****, like you movin' the bedAnother day another quarter, not even a dollar***** won't give me her number she see me out walkingI'm catching the bus, making my lunch, got two gold fronts, peacoat with lintDirty pants and my dirty dreads, a ***** better give me my bread mother*****erThis for the working man, manKeep hustling, stay positive, don't let the hood get you manWalk past right past the dope dealers, right past all the hoes and go to your jobAll that easy money all that jail time look at that like Monopoly jail timeYou feel me?You know, you can be in the mother*****ing gutter manAnd you better walk to that college man, you better catch the bus to collegeDon't let them suckas stop youYou feel me?Let them do everything they do around you manYou feel me, you always gotta think bigger than where you atYou know we all working, the working man, the working womanLadies you know you see them hoes strippin', ***** it do what you doIf you don't wanna do that, you knowTake your time, struggle hard, and you gon' make it, you feel me?You see the hoes sellin' *****, you heard me?
