Lyrics Brother Ali

Brother Ali

Work Everyday

Damn, man. I'm broker than an old VCR, man. I need a

job.

Are they hiring at your job?

I got a stack of red bills at my house. It looks like

Valentine's Day at the crib.

My kids are eating left-over leftovers, man. I can't

fool them no more. It's job time

Every day every day

Got to work every day

Every day every day

Got to work every day

My God there's got to be more to life than this

There's got to be a bigger reason that I exist

Work to eat to earn my keep

To ensure somewhere to sleep and spend the weekend

buying shit

Don't need economists to know I need pot to piss

Follow politics man I ain't got time to think

What I got to set aside for my retirement

Cop a double shift pay somebody to watch the kids

Sick of all this but can't take an off day

Doctor's office I can't swing the co pay

Trapped in a network, lucky just to get work

They celebrate every week nobody gets hurt

Greed could never leave well enough alone

They keep on squeezing till we bleed from every bone

And we'll strive hard and stress about the rent

Probably still die poor and in debt without a cent but

I guess I'll carry my ass down to the county and see

what they're talking about. But

You know they treat you like you shot somebody just

because you need a little help
