Weekly Wage - Mac Lethal

I said a weekly wage is an addiction

It’s so much worse than any drug

You’re a slave to security and comfort

So you never pursue the things you love (2X)

You got a job that you hate

And every day you want to punch your fuckin' boss in the face

Direction lost and it’s late

There is a master piece inside of you that you gotta create

But you whisper every time you’re talking to fate

See if you quit your job you won’t have money (true)

But one thing you will be is hungry (true)

And you always turn creative and savage as fuck

When your life is hard and you ain’t comfy

See if you quit your job you won’t have benefits (true)

But one thing you will have is fitness (true)

To innovate and learn and get a real work ethic

So you can start your own damn business

I mean what

You want an easy answer

You want someone to pat you on the head and tell you it will be okay

You got the fucking nerve to wonder why you’re so depressed

When you’re sitting in a cubicle like 10 hours a day

Working for a company that you don’t really care about

Helping build someone else’s kingdom (true)

That’s a motherfucking consequence of putting finances

Over true happiness and freedom

I said a weekly wage is an addiction

It’s so much worse than any drug

You’re a slave to security and comfort

So you never pursue the things you love (2X)

Now listen to me

If you got a job and you love it then you should keep it

But if you get a knot in your stomach after the weekend

'Cause you don’t like mondays 'cause you’ll be in an office all week not

getting sun rays

You feel like inside of you

Deep inside of you

There’s an artist with an attitude

Then listen to me

This is what you gotta do

You gotta stop being a fucking corporate prostitute

That is what you are my friend, I’m telling you the honest truth

I understand my friend you gotta pay your bills and all

So thinking about just walking out your job is no easy pill to swallow

Plus what happens if you try to start your own company and it fails

Oh my god what if you fail

Well failure is a teacher that will tear your ACL

During the first game of the season

With your parents in the bleachers

And failure is the teacher that has helped 100,000 lost sailors find the beaches

Find the beaches

I said a weekly wage is an addiction

It’s so much worse than any drug

You’re a slave to security and comfort

So you never pursue the things you love (2X)

You only get to live once

One… time

You only get to live once

Make the most of it

Don’t let money beat you to the point where you don’t even enjoy your life

Live in your car
