Nine to Five Lyrics

Had to take a break from my nine to five

To work on my career

Set my family up for years

Making plays so I can do this till I'm in the sky

Getting closer I can hear it

Cause my thoughts done lead me here

Man that's why I took a break from my nine to five

Not that I'm better than my peers

But I don't belong here

Should be out on stages but I paper organize

Glad I took a break from my nine to five

Man life ain't given lemons so I found my own to squeeze

We don't throw out the seeds I collect em and plant some trees

Invite some busy bees

To share honey with me

I self sustain the team

Then spread the offerings

I want everything but I can't have it all at once

I'm just getting good at splitting needs from the wants

Wish life had brownie points

I would save em up

Then use them all at once

Cause what I save em for

I used to dim my shine cause when I did the haters fuss

Can't wait to quit my job cause dead ends ain't made for us

I used to dim my shine cause when I did the haters fuss

Can't wait to quit my job cause dead ends ain't made for us

Had to take a break from my nine to five

To work on my career set my family up for years

Making plays so I can do this till I'm in the sky

Getting closer I can hear it cause my thoughts done lead me here
