Lyrics

Running late, that set the pace now it's time to wake

No time to shower just brush my teeth on the interstate

I'm doing the race to a place I hate but it pays

If the bills paid I guess I should be doing ok

Hell naw cause I'm starving, barely eating

Hot dogs, ramen noodles, chicken seasons

Peanut butter and jelly spreading before I'm leaving

Clocking in, the pressure heating before they speaking

A living hell when you're pressured to work

When you tell them you're better at worth

You feel the pressure asserts

Don't give a damn about ya living at first

Just give a damn about the products you serve, to make 'em richer

Can you picture the bigger picture of being free

Instead they picture another nigga when they seeing me

If you figured that you can differ from being me

Damn my nigga it's time to get up when I see the screen


Hitting snooze but I ain' trying to move

Yeah they got us overworking said we dying for loot

Everyday feeling the same when you trapped in a loop

Yeah they play us like game like it's PlayStation Two, uh

We clocked in they control us like controllers

We clocked in they control us like controllers

We clocked in they control us like controllers

We clocked in they control us like controllers


Working like a slave every motherfucking day

They wanna see us in the field just slaving away

Under the rays of the sun just burning our face

They done threw us in a cage call it baking a cake

Hot under pressure, they will compress us so we won't let up

For the cheese we need the cheddar, that mozzarella

We try to leave for the green, they won't lettuce

Try stacking bread like Sara Lee whenever we get fed up

To put food on the plate it take slaving

The bank account be draining, the money is not saving

The bills steady raising, the paychecks underpaid and

We can show the statements no need to explain it

We can change it, picture painted with ya pain man

Picture gaining everything you wish your brain can

If you paint it then you gotta go and attain it

But you can't obtain it if you hanging on the same shift cause


Hitting snooze but I ain' trying to move

Yeah they got us overworking said we dying for loot

Everyday feeling the same when you trapped in a loop

Yeah they play us like game like it's PlayStation Two, uh

We clocked in they control us like controllers

We clocked in they control us like controllers

We clocked in they control us like controllers

We clocked in they control us like controllers


After hours, I have to shower

But I don't feel like doing nothing when I clock out of the gig

But roll that loud up, the speakers louder

I need it to get me out of, just get me out of my head

I'm overthinking how to get me out of this place

I'm tired of working long hours bussin' over a eight

That overtime be seeming fine until it's time to get paid

And I still ain' got enough to get me through most of them days

I been nickel and diming while I live check to check

That's just the way to hold us down to try to stop our success

We Eric Garner, government they got they foot on our necks

They don't want us to be free they just want us to be lesser

While they finesse us, they pay professors

To keep us miseducated up in them lectures

And tell us to keep a job, a nine to five

Just so we can retire, close when we die

Til then we


Hitting snooze but I ain' trying to move

Yeah they got us overworking said we dying for loot

Everyday feeling the same when you trapped in a loop

Yeah they play us like game like it's PlayStation Two, uh

We clocked in they control us like controllers

We clocked in they control us like controllers

We clocked in they control us like controllers

We clocked in they control us like controllers
