W-4 - Dead Prez



[intro sample vocals from "American Pimp"]

So much shit goes on it makes me doubt about a God -- you know, makes me ask

well if there is a God then why am I in the situation that I'm in?

Or why is my family going through certain situations

when I don't think that they deserve it nah mean?

Or why do good people suffer so much and bad people prosper so much?



[sample fades out as instrumental comes in]



[lighter sparking]



Yo

Goin out...we light this J up right here...for all the hard working folk

cross this country, cross the world

For everybody on the grind everyday 9 to 5, 8 to 12 -- you know how we do it

Hand to hand, whateva...

Yo, yo..



[Chorus - singing]

I been working all my life but ain't got nothin' to show

I ain't tellin' you nothing you don't already know

I been working all my life but ain't got nothin' to show

Like this world just don't want us to groooow



I been working all my life but ain't got nothin' to show

I ain't tellin' you nothing you don't already know

I been working all my life but ain't got nothin' to show

Wanna run up in tha white house and kick in tha do' ohhhhh



[Verse 1]

What a nigga gonna eat when the refrigerator empty?

Work all week let the bossman pimp me?

Can't pay no rent till the 15th

Landlord call the police to evict me

Lookin for a job in the want ads

Have you ever been to jail? Know they gone ask

Ever took a piss test that you didn't pass?

In between jobs in the past? How you get cash?

I done worked over hot ass stoves

I done picked up trash off roads

Winter time in the streets and the cold

Many times had to sleep in my clothes on the flo'

What you know bout bein' po' seei
