MINIMUM WAG3 Lyrics

They got me working all these hours for a dollar

I should be in sky scrapers

Where only I can hear my yells

Room service, ring a bell

Bring me beef Wellington, medium well

Some of the finest Brussels

Make me sprout from the smell

The freshest green like an artichoke dip

Imagination have you thinking Elon Musk kinda shit

Electrify my drive with a pill of caffeine

Oh yeah, forgot to mention

Back to reality, driving a truck

Dropping off what y'all use yo sleep on me

That's cool on every track I get my reap on

Weeks go by, pain in my back so I need

A couple bags of ice, help my act to succeed

I heard it's therapeutic so I relax w the weed

I got a couple bills from tries at degrees

The cost might blow yo mind like after a sneeze

I could've been a trainer helping cats with they threes

But instead I knock a door asking folks what's preferred

Put the sofa here, yo recliner next to the bird

Built the table for em

While they watching me like ima steal

Ima keep it real, if you can't trust a Nigga in yo crib

Don't allow us in

And if we working to a sweat, throw a dub

Tip a Nigga for his work, yo foreal show some love

While we work for this wage

Taking time to use our day

For Nigga with a dream being lived through us

I can't push somebody dream without pushing my own

That's the reason for this song

Minimum wage

Why must we slave

For dollars a day

It must be a way

Look at me

I said I'll be in the league

Before the age of 23

Look at me in 26

I told my self I'd never quit

But damn it now I gotta kid

he deserves the fucking world

And that's what gon get

But I'm living check to check

Fuck this being grown shit

Sorry mama for my speech

Someone had to go and say it

Like, how can you get comfortable with struggling with bills

While you tryna take a trip

Just to get away from stress

Just to have to work some more just to level out that check

And that's hours at a dime or more

Do we really love our time?

Or, is times value in a dime?

Take a second just to think

Even that might cost you

Find a map because I've lost you

Like conversations of pay that barely put you over 12

With floating hours but they down to drown you If you go tell

Or voice an opinion on how things ain't going well

Or maybe they even fix it, but took em long as hell

All that ain't in yo control, take along inhale

You know you got bigger things to think about

Now breathe it out
