lyrics

Verse 1 - Jeph

Feeling like I'm fresh outta work
Stepping outside
Walking by unemployed heads
Fresh outta work
Before y'all try say Jeph is a jerk
I don't come sideways unless ya head’s turned

And yes I got a lil money to spare
But I would rather teach you how I made that money appear
But last time I said that to a youngin out here
He laughed dead in my face like that's a funny idea
(word . ?)

Lesson learnt, Ima act like I'm broke next time your hands out like automatic soap
dispensers
you already know
i been insensitive since the sensor broke

Which means whether you're friend or foe
I can't tell-- I only pretend to know
This ain't the stress i deserve
I was just fresh outta work
When'd the expiration occur?

Chorus:

Say WORD (THAT'S what I'm talkin about!)
Say the WORD (that's what my thought process about)
Gimme the word when you ready
I'ma rock steady
aint no point in sweating nothing petty
So they tell me...(x2)

Verse 2 - Poin Dexter

Ok, First of all lady--I am the manager
As I do the dishes you notice I'm not an amateur
where is my promotion? I belong upon the board of directors
shortly a lecture's what I'll hear for my notorious gestures in front of customers

what's the word? cuz work is like a rumor mill
I act like I'm above it but I do it still...euw
T-30 minutes til I'm clocking out
I'm gazing at the clock while you're talking, what were you talking bout?

sorry, it's hard to listen when I'm mentally missing
eventually dismissing body preferentially distant
cuz I don't want to have to ---

Turn it down...It's just my boss from work turn it down real quick

BOSS - DEXTER WHERE THE HELL YOU AT, I TOLD YOU DONT LEAVE WORK EARLY---
DEX - No, Mr Thomas, I told you--
BOSS - NO, YOU DON'T TELL ME ANYTHING
DEX - I told you I was leaving work early! I gotta finish this verse...for--
BOSS - What verse? You don't do no verse
DEX - what??
BOSS - Your rap career is nothing, fast food is your life
DEX - What do you mean my rap career is nothing and fast food is my life??
BOSS - fast food is your life, you need to get your ass back here now

i don't want to have to deal with my boss and his 'mountain making out of molehill' ability
really he killing me. You feelin me?

well now i'm not confined to vicinity
cuz i'm fresh up outta work after the time of infinity
this a message to the jerks, why do you find some sympathy
for the next shift
while me and jeph spit on the FRESH tip!

Verse 3 - Jeph

OVERALL I CANT REALLY COMPLAIN TOO MUCH
IT AINT SCREWED UP
IF I SAID I'M BITTER I SAID A BIT TOO MUCH,
SPIT IT HOW IT IS I DONT GOTTA PULL PUNCH,, BUT THE FLOW STILL SCOLD 2 HOT 2 TOUCH

BACK WHEN MY MICROPHONE WAS THE TOOTHBRUSH
I WAS MAD WHEN MY WHITENESS SHOWN--NO KU KLUX
...I DIDNT FIGHT FOR LONG I GREW UP
AND EMBRACED THAT UNUSUAL BEAUTIFUL FUTURE

THAT'S ME, 25 YEARS OLD
STILL GETTIN ID'D LIKE I'M 19
IN MY CITY MIGHT SEEM LIKE I'M SIGHT SEEING
LIKE A DEER PERMANENTLY TRAPPED IN THE HIGH BEAMS

...if that's the case then i flip off it...
...and land clean like i dishwashed it...
i dont care, man i do it anywhere
i could rhyme in my dreams while everybody's exhausted
