Bam Alexander - Nine 2 Five Lyrics

Confessions of a rapper with a day job
Waitin for the pay off
This nine to five pays, but my energy been way off
I need a day off
But one more missed shift and I'll get laid off
The way I'm feelin hard to shake off
I can't wait to take off
I can't wait to take off
Student loan debt up to my neck
I just want to rap for a check
I want Mugz beats to pay the bills
I'm tryin to turn my lyrics to a Lex
Big sheesh, I'll show you how to flex
Am I workin hard or am I hardly workin?
They say it's gon' be hard, but you just gotta put the work in
I feel like I hardly work because I'm always workin
If you get what I'm tryin to say
I'm searchin for a balance I'm still tryin to set the standard
'Cause some days I wake up and just feel like I can't manage
I've delayed alarms so many times you couldn't count it
I shower, I cut through traffic, get there in half an hour
I serve my hours
First you get the money, then the power, Chico
I record a song and feel like Al Pacino
The world is really mine, but its business on my mind
Another shawty on my line, I'm like shawty get in line
I get so annoyed thinkin back on wasted time
Goin through the motions and ignorin warnin signs
Idle hands and closed eyes, that's my demise
Stepped up to that microphone and I began to rise
Eyes on the prize
This world of ours is hectic and I'm blessed to be alive
Steppin through my life a single door at a time
I don't know where they'll lead until I'm on the other side
But I have realized that it was all designed
So I'm never movin blind
Remainin patient waiting for them stars to align
But I'm so sick and tired of nine to five
Confessions of a rapper with a day job
Waitin for the pay off
This nine to five pays, but my energy been way off
I need a day off
But one more missed shift and I'll get laid off
The way I'm feelin hard to shake off
I can't wait to take off
I can't wait to take off
Confessions of a rapper with a day job
Waitin for the pay off
This nine to five pays, but my energy been way off
I need a day off
But one more missed shift and I'll get laid off
The way I'm feelin hard to shake off
I can't wait to take off
I can't wait to take off
Sheesh
