No 9 To 5
Who but you would know your purpose?
Ain't no person
People love to predetermine what your worth is
There was no pops
Mom said be what you want
Just don't be a punk
Cause when you come from under everything gon be tough
What works for you won't work for me
So many recipes
Kicked out the university
Jumped in the league
Couldn't learn how to chase dreams from a professor
Life's my only tester
Under pressure, Still held it together
Kept my head up
So much effort
Ain't nothing copacetic
Wasting energy is not in my genetics, I'm electric
I'm relentless
You need that drive with that gas that be endless
Keep thinking tremendous
Will of iron
Part of the science of grinding
Anyone can be a giant if they're trying
On no one i'm relying
I do all my own providing
I'm flying to the hoop like Kobe Bryant
Paralyzing pain pushing my strength
I refuse to settle for less
Don't settle for less
Digging deep down doing my best
Inch by inch
I'm gonna progress
Can't settle for less
Now I'm Rolling down 95
Cause I don't need no nine to five
Sick of only getting by
I need more to life
Rolling down 95
Cause I don't need no nine to five
No nine to five
No nine to give
(Frankies)
Here's the details
I was working retail
Tryna get myself on track
But all I do is derail
I'm climbing up hills
I'm stacking more bills
At this pace, At this rate
I'm going nowhere quick
Let's be real uh
I never wanted to cope out
Never thought I'd be a dropout
But let those mother fuckers talk now
Now that all my shows sell out
And i'm home grown
Going local to global
Straight loco how I spit flow
So I can't go back to that chokehold
Dead end jobs
That ain't gonna get me far
Wasting dollars in college?
That don't sound too smart
When it's for something that I
Don't even really want
So I put in time
Worked on my rhymes
And worked on my life
Understood nothing got handed
Now I'm the only one who left standing
If ya want something ya must demand it
There is no right or wrong
You gotta get yours
Make out like a fucking bandit
Thats right
This is your only shot damn it
Paralyzing pain pushing my strength
I refuse to settle for less
Don't settle for less
Digging deep down doing my best
Inch by inch
I'm gonna progress
Can't settle for less
Now I'm Rolling down 95
Cause I don't need no nine to five
Sick of only getting by
I need more to life
Now I'm rolling down 95
Cause I don't need no nine to five
No nine to five
No nine to give
I wish it was easy
Then again maybe not
It's the struggle that made me
It really ain't easy
But if you give it your all
You could break the glass ceiling
Paralyzing pain pushing my strength
I refuse to settle for less
Don't settle for less
Digging deep down doing my best
Inch by inch
I'm gonna progress
Can't settle for less
Now I'm Rolling down 95
Cause I don't need no nine to five
Sick of only getting by
I need more to life
Now I'm rolling down 95
Cause I don't need no nine to five
No nine to five
No nine to give
