And I keep thinking about my young brothas
And i keep thinking bout my young sistas
And i keep thinking bout that 9 - 5
Will working two jobs be my whole life
I dont know if i can stay
Cuz im trynna go away
Everyday is just a pain, For me
Whats the price i gotta pay
So i can leave today
Cuz I just wanna be
Set free
Is this the life for me
Working everyday making ends meet
This aint the life I pictured to be having now
Im not looking for the cars or to be fancy now
Sometimes i feel ashamed that i be stressing this
I got my eyes and limbs so why im stressing shit
Im sick of being poor and barley having some
But i guess its way better than just having none
I Dream bout the money that will never come
Got like 60 in the tank
Got my brothers in honduras starving for a couple days cuz theres no money in the bank
They stomach keep on hurtin like they holding on a plank
I want a queen size i dont want a single bed
Homless man up on the train never had a single bed
He wished he had a pillow just to rest his heavy head
And I got everything and im wishing to be dead yea yeah
And I keep thinking about my young brothas
And i keep thinking bout my young sistas
And i keep thinking bout that 9 - 5
Will working two jobs be my whole life
I dont know if i can stay
Cuz im trynna go away
Everyday is just a pain , For me
Whats the price i gotta pay
So i can leave today
Cuz I just wanna be
Set free
Sick of working two jobs it aint working out
Tired of coming home everyday late, what you know about
Struggling to make another dollar for the next check
What you know about counting pennies to pay your next rent
Then again I sit and wonder bout my other peers
Driving myself crazy, im messing round with these fears
My life isnt the worst so why am i buggen out
My house is full of pain so all i do is jump around
Wearing cheap sandles son i swear im getting tired
Cousin in honduras making sandals out of tires
Got a stove up in the crib and others begging for fire
Hoping to help my people in the need thats my desire
Telling down all of my truth i aint a liar
Start to think that deep inside my heart im just a coward
Afraid to live my life
Cuz this life we live is not ours
Ive been living for many years, but its feeling just some hours
I keep thinking about my young brothas
And i keep thinking bout my young sistas
And i keep thinking bout that 9 - 5
Will working two jobs be my whole life
I dont know if i can stay
Cuz im trynna go away
Everyday is just a pain, For me
Whats the price i gotta pay
So i can leave today
Cuz I just wanna be
Set free
