Put in Work

Bubba, Mathis Senior Triple X

I was getting restitution

They was getting rest

Country, rap bastard in the flesh

You gon' give me what I earned and

Not a penny less (ah)

Trying to get it, 40 hours every week baby

Working? Hell nah

That's what I get in sleep maybe

Big maybe, let me say I really appreciate it

When daddy told me

"Son it's okay to be lazy

As long as you don't mind

Table scraps at supper time

If you good with that then

Take a nap, yeah just recline

And when it's time to shine

Stay reclined

Then you wonder why you way behind?"

That is why

I put in work

Be the last one to bed

And the first with my shovel in dirt

I put in work, for what I deserve

Be the last one to stop

Imma rock 'til I drop to the Earth

And it's family first

So when the birds chirp

I'm at work

I'm at work while you eating dessert

I'm at work when you walk in and leaving church

Please God, forgive them cause we keep

Working while they giving

Excuse upon excuse for why they isn't

Take a whole lot of ambition

Mix it up with more vision

Equals either inconceivable freedom or prison

Both, literal prison systems and

Prisons of the spirit but the vibe is undeniable

When you're near it

Bitches fear it 'cause when beautiful women

Bitches hear it, see it or feel it

They get they ass and titty revealing

Beverages spilling, long legs spread to the ceiling

There's no beating this feeling

But you know me, I'm just chilling (Ha!)

But not really nah I'm really obsessing

About how the next one I'm workings

Gon' be the best one, yet

A country boy might survive

Working 9 to 5

But since this one here is trying to thrive

I put in work

Be the last one to bed

And the first with my shovel in dirt

I put in work, for what I deserve

Be the last one to stop

Imma rock 'til I drop to the Earth

And it's family first

So when the birds chirp

I'm at work

Work like that check ain't coming on the 1st

Work like that trust fund yo Papa left you undispersed

Work is to produce and re-produce is why we living

Work just because you like to get it

While ya'll was Instagram'n

We was living in here jamming

Shit I like Instagram

But it ain't one of The Ten Commandments

Since I've been a man I've been gradually

Comprehending and understanding

It ain't so much the business plan it's

It is the way you plan to handle your business

If the woman or man is relentless

God is the witness

The God given talent cause it ain't gotta be

None like LeBron like you dead blessed

Gesundheit, mine is more like

Pete Rose playing for the Reds

The talent is average but it's the hustle

That made him the best

Ain't trying to say I'm the best

Just that I only know one way to success

I put in work

Be the last one to bed

And the first with my shovel in dirt

I put in work, for what I deserve

Be the last one to stop

Imma rock 'til I drop to the Earth

And it's family first

So when the birds chirp

I'm at work
