Work Everyday - Brother Ali[00:00:00]

Damn man [00:00:02]

I'm broker than an old VCR man [00:00:05]

I need a job [00:00:09]

Are they hiring at your job [00:00:10]

I got a stack of red bills at my house [00:00:12]

It looks like Valentine's Day at the crib [00:00:15]

My kids are eating left-over leftovers man [00:00:19]

I can't fool them no more [00:00:21]

It's job time[00:00:23]

Every day every day[00:00:23]

Got to work every day[00:00:24]

Every day every day[00:00:25]

Got to work every day[00:00:28]

My God there's got to be more to life than this[00:00:30]

There's got to be a bigger reason that I exist[00:00:33]

Work to eat to earn my keep[00:00:36]

To ensure somewhere to sleep and spend the weekend buying sh*t[00:00:38]

Don't need economists to know I need pot to piss[00:00:41]

Follow politics man I ain't got time to think[00:00:44]

What I got to set aside for my retirement[00:00:46]

Cop a double shift pay somebody to watch the kids[00:00:48]

Sick of all this but can't take an off day[00:00:51]

Doctor's office I can't swing the co pay[00:00:54]

Trapped in a network luck just to get work[00:00:56]

They celebrate every week nobody gets hurt[00:00:59]

Greed could never leave well enough alone[00:01:01]

They keep on squeezing till we bleed from every bone[00:01:04]

And we'll strive hard and stress about the rent[00:01:07]

Probably still die poor and in debt without a cent but[00:01:09]

I guess I'll carry my a** down to the county and see what they're talking about But[00:01:12]

You know they treat you like you shot somebody just because you need a little help[00:01:16]

You're telling my you ain't never been down on your luck[00:01:20]

Never tried to make them ends meet but just got stuck[00:01:24]

Never slaved at a gig like a bum with a cup[00:01:26]

Added all your pennies up and you still ain't had enough[00:01:29]

And the jobs full up they ain't hiring[00:01:31]

I'm barely surviving not enough to get by with[00:01:34]

Hunger is a constant problem stomach steady growling[00:01:37]

People getting shot in my environment[00:01:40]

Study go to college is what them people hollering[00:01:42]

Too many road blocks in the way it's not an option[00:01:44]

To say that it's impossible I would be lying[00:01:47]

But you ain't got a chance if you're not up in that top ten[00:01:49]

A couple got a scholarship but I am not them[00:01:52]

Ain't got the skills to pay the bills so my pockets are thin[00:01:54]

So until I cop a gig and my hardship ends[00:01:57]

Fixing to line my self up at your welfare office again[00:02:00]

And I expect to be accepted as the man that I am[00:02:03]

Respectfully and appreciatively Ma'am[00:02:05]

God damn you must be out of your mind[00:02:08]

Every day every day[00:02:13]

Got to work every day[00:02:16]

Every day every day[00:02:18]

Got to work every day[00:02:21]

People stressing here's the question[00:02:23]

How they get people drinking tea in a recession[00:02:26]

It's deception how absurd is this[00:02:29]

How are so many poor people conservative[00:02:32]

A pro artist I put it in the good music[00:02:34]

A con artist job's to make you look stupid[00:02:37]

Lookie here I'll teach you how to look trough it[00:02:39]

First thing you need to know every con got a hook to it[00:02:42]

They seduce you with a little wealth[00:02:44]

Say you could have some of these crumbs for yourself[00:02:46]

If the government doesn't make us help anyone else[00:02:49]

You stuck a red sign on your foreclosed house[00:02:51]

Make you think you're taking back your nation[00:02:54]

Then they turn it over to a major corporation[00:02:57]

Those companies took the jobs overseas[00:02:59]

And you handed them the wallet out your pocket for free[00:03:02]

You're staring in the sky with dollar signs for eyes[00:03:04]

The blind right wing of a bird that can't fly[00:03:07]

Just a peacock with a poked out gut[00:03:10]

Who's too fat to fly so his a** just strut but[00:03:12]

Every day every day[00:03:15]

Got to work every day[00:03:17]

Every day every day[00:03:20]

Got to work every day[00:03:22]

They're so criminal minded we've been blinded[00:03:25]

Looking for an honest job and can't find it[00:03:28]

They got a job bill we got a light bill[00:03:30]

If we don't pay ours our life is quite real[00:03:33]

Every day every day[00:03:36]

Got to work every day[00:03:38]

Every day every day[00:03:40]

Got to work every day[00:03:43]
