Lyrics

This is for gig workers, shift workers, tipped servers,
Everyone that’s not ashamed cuz they flip burgers,
Back breakers, ass shakers, app laborers,
Under the table cash takers,
Side hustlers, cuz degrees ain’t enough,
And everyone that shop the first week of the month.
No space to prevent overdraft fees,
No safety net for the trappees.
America runs on dunkin’ on the underpaid,
Only got Uber unions in a couple states.
Independent contractors can’t organize?
What’s a contract if it never saw a lawyer’s eyes?
We need truly equal laws.
I look at you & see grief & loss.
You’re doing 2 or 3 people’s jobs,
Cuz they cut half the staff, they were bleeding costs.
Argue with a bot when you seek support, cuz
They took the human out of human resources.
God forbid you ever need an abortion.
And they wonder why we ain’t having more kids.
Most rappers’ll never afford Porsches.
We do it for drink tickets & door splits.
No endorsement for relief on a mortgage,
Cuz that’s the only way they can keep the armed forces.
This is for gig workers, shift workers, tipped servers,
Everyone that’s not ashamed cuz they flip burgers,
Back breakers, ass shakers, app laborers,
Under the table cash takers,
Side hustlers, cuz degrees ain’t enough,
And everyone that shop the first week of the month.
No space to prevent overdraft fees,
No safety net for the trappees.
Cut wages, cut benefits,
Ignore inflation, raise expenses,
Cut taxes for the upper classes,
Make sure the struggling hustling backwards.
That’s the blueprint that they’re using,
But we can make them wish they never fooled with
The ones who really keep shit moving,
All we gotta do is not get spooked again.
We can bring the whole shit to a standstill,
If we say with one voice & one damn will:
“I’ll be happy to work if you pay me what I’m worth,
If not, you can’t make me convert.”
If we all strike now, we can wring ‘em out,
Something we only got a few years to bring about,
Cuz once it’s all automated, that’s a wrap &
We’ll wish we hadn’t let it happen.
This is for gig workers, shift workers, tipped servers,
Everyone that’s not ashamed cuz they flip burgers,
Back breakers, ass shakers, app laborers,
Under the table cash takers,
Side hustlers, cuz degrees ain’t enough,
And everyone that shop the first week of the month.
No space to prevent overdraft fees,
No safety net for the trappees.
It can happen here.
