[Intro: Anthony Hamilton]
Lords knows I work hard
But I still gotta stay on my job
'Cause I ain't tryna get laid off
Won't stop until the day that I'm a boss
[Verse 1: August Alsina]
I know somebody tired of assisted livin'
Wakin' every mornin' sayin', "I gotta get it"
Focus on the paper can give you tunnel vision
Drug dealin', stackin', flippin' just tryna make a livin'
Baby shakin' on the pole just to make tuition
Single mommas facin' drama so they can feed they children
Niggas strung out on that dope just 'cause they had a taste
And niggas droppin' out of school on the paper chase
Who am I to hate? I ain't judgin' 'cause I can relate
Skippin' school, gettin' high, just tryna motivate
Just tryna make it 'til I make it to them pearly gates
Lost too many homies, can't face another wake
Another loss, another cop, another mistake, nothin' stand in my way
I went through a hurricane of pain and I'm standin' today
And if you outchea on your grind, fuck whoever hate
Just pay attention and concentrate
[Pre-Chorus: August Alsina]
Yeah nigga, it's crunch time
And I'm just tryna eat just like a kid at lunch time
And if you thought it was joke, it ain't no punchline
Ain't nothin' standin' in my way, I'm 'bout to get mine, it's hard work
Lords knows I work hard
But I still gotta stay on my job
'Cause I ain't tryna get laid off
Won't stop until the day that I'm a boss
