I've been working this grave-shift
And I ain't made shit
I wish I could
Buy me a spaceship and fly
I swear I do
Past the sky oh
GLC feel you baby I feel you man
I've been working this grave-shift
And I ain't made shit
I wish I could
Buy me a spaceship and fly
Past the sky
Man man man
Kanye West:
If my manager insults me again
I will be assaulting him
After I f**k the manager up
Then I'm gonna shorten the register up
Let's go back back to the Gap
Look at my check wasn't no scratch
So if I stole wasn't my fault
Yeah I stole never got caught
They take me to the back and pat me
Asking me about some khakis
But let some Black people walk in
I bet you they show off their token blackie
Oh now they love Kanye
"Let's put him all in the front of the store"
So I'm on break
Next to the "No Smoking" sign with a blunt in the mall
Taking my hits writing my hits
Writing my rhymes playing my mind
This f**king job can't help him
So I quit y'all welcome
Y'all don't know my struggle
Y'all can't match my hustle
You can't catch my hustle
You can't fathom my love dude
Lock yourself in a room
Doing five beats a day for three summers
That's A Different World like Cree Summer's
I deserve to do these numbers
"The kid that made that deserves that Maybach"
So many records in my basement
I'm just waitin' on my spaceship blaow
Kanye West/GLC:
I've been working this grave-shift
And I ain't made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly
Past the sky oh
I've been working this grave-shift
And I ain't made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly
Past the sky
GLC:
And I didn't even try to work a job
Represent the mob at the same time
Thirsty on the grind Chi state of mind
Lost my mama lost my mind
Life my love that's not mine
"Why you ain't signed"
Wasn't my time
Leave me alone work for y'all
Half of it's yours half of it's mine
Only wanna ball never wanna fall
Gotta get mine gotta take mine
Got a Tec-9 reach my prime
Gotta make these haters respect mine
In the mall 'til 12 when my schedule had said 9
Putting them pants on shelves
Waiting patiently I ask myself
Where I wanna go where I wanna be
Life is much more than running in the streets
Holler at 'Ye hit me with the beat
Put me on my feet sounds so sweet
Yes I'm the same ol' G
Same goatee stayin' low-key nope
Holler at God:"Man why'd you have to take my folks"
Hope to see Freddie G. Yusef G love my G
Rolly G police watch me
Smoke my weed and count my Gs
Got a lot of people counting on me
That's right
And I'm just tryin' to find my peace
That's right
Should've finished school like my niece
Then I finally wouldn't use my piece blaow
I've been working this grave-shift
And I ain't made shit
I wish I could
Buy me a spaceship and fly
Past the sky oh
I've been working this grave-shift
And I ain't made shit
I wish I could
Buy me a spaceship and fly
Past the sky
Consequence:
I 'member having to take the dollar cab
Coming home real late at night
Standing on my feet all d**n day
Tryna make this thing right
And havin' one of my coworkers say "Yo you look just like
This kid I seen in an old Busta Rhymes video the other night"
Well easy come easy go how that saying goes
No more broad service cars and them TV shows
That all had got snatched from me A&Rs and they faculties
All turn their back on me and didn't wanna hear a rap from me
So naturally actually had to face things factually
Had to be a catastrophe empty fridge is staring back at me
'Cause nothing's there nothing's fair
I don't wanna ever go back there
So I won't be taking no days off 'til my spaceship takes off bow
I've been working this grave-shift
And I ain't made shit
I wish I could
Buy me a spaceship and fly
Past the sky oh
I've been working this grave-shift
And I ain't made shit
I wish I could
Buy me a spaceship and fly
Past the sky
Tony Williams:
I wanna fly
I wanna fly
I said I want my chariot to pick me up
And take a brother for a ride
Heaven knows heaven knows
Heaven knows heaven knows
