Job (feat. Anthony Hamilton & Jadakiss)

Lord knows I work hard

But I still gotta stay on my job

'Cause I ain't trying to get laid off

Won't stop until the day that I'm a boss

I know somebody tried of assisted living

Waking every morning saying I gotta get it

Focusing on the paper can give you tunnel vision

Drug dealing, stacking, flipping, just trying to make a living

Baby shaking on the pole just to make tuition

Single mommas facing drama so they can feed their children

**** strung out on that dope just 'cause they had a taste

And **** dropping out of school on the paper chase

Who am I to hate?

I ain't judging 'cause I can relate

Skipping school, getting high, just trying to motivate

Trying to make it 'til I make it to them pearly gates

Lost so many homies, can't face another wake

Another lost, another cop, another mistake

Nothing standing in my way

I went through a hurricane of pain and I'm standing today

And if you out there on your grind, fuck whoever hate

Just pay attention and concentrate

Yeah ****, it's crunch time

And I'm just trying to eat, just like a kid at lunch time

And if you thought it was a joke, it ain't no punchline

Ain't nothing standing in my way, I'm about to get mine

It's hard work

Lord knows I work hard

But I still gots to stay on my job

'Cause I ain't trying to get laid off

Won't stop until the day that I'm a boss yo

It's hard work

Lord knows I work hard

But I still gots to stay on my job

And I ain't taking no days off

Won't stop 'til the day it pays off

It's hard work

Yeah, I'm speaking real so you gonna believe me

First of all nobody said that it was gonna be easy

And you don't see the pain

You just see what's on the TV

When you don't let them keep the change then they call you greedy

Now they on social media talking greasy

Would get the guns but my sons and my daughters need me

I get it off soon as it comes

Make your order speedy

I'm on a hell of a run

I thank the Lord completely

I'm putting overtime in so I'm sorta sleepy

And I haven't slept in years so that's sorta creepy

Gotta beat me fair and square but you ain't gonna cheat me

Carry the weight of the world on my shoulders weekly

Blame the universe, that's how the stars work

Yeah, play your hand that's how the cards work

Nah, ain't nothing planned, this is God's work

We working hard 'cause it's hard work

Yeah ****, it's crunch time

And I'm just trying to eat, just like a kid at lunch time

And if you thought it was a joke, it ain't no punchline

Ain't nothing standing in my way, I'm about to get mine

It's hard work

Lord knows I work hard

But I still gots to stay on my job

'Cause I ain't trying to get laid off

Won't stop until the day that I'm a boss

Yo, It's hard work

Lord knows I work hard

But I still gots to stay on my job

And I ain't taking no days off

Won't stop 'til the day it pays off

It's hard work, yeah

It's hard work, yeah

It's hard, it's hard work, yeah

It's hard work, yeah

It's hard, it's hard work, yeah
