Rented Time

Tick Tock Tick Tock Tick Tock
It's rented time
Minimum wage for the effort right
Couple of seconds here, multiply
And evolve a new way of life
Ripen skill till every corner in sight's
Blunted, edge is NSFW, all the spite
Been stricken with the disease of dissonance
Feeling futile, easy to prove how few fucks they give
It's all about who, did what, when, were, how
Why the fuck was I ever on the prowl for this shit
A lil sneaky snitch, running speech for profit
Silly me, being nice was optics, my soul rotten
They ain't care, so I'll dare to take my liberty
Fuck a system that'll ignore my importance, the greed
Proceed to do the minimum necessary
Grab any free lunch, the littlest fee
When it's all about the money
To feed whatever need, to destress and be free
You'll do anything on the low
As long as no one will see
Getting away clean is just thrilling
Don't portray effort at this salary
Geez, don't let them villains see you as a chump
They'll always ask for more, then ignore
You when there's opportunity to soar
The chief exists to sell dreams then extort
Your efforts and offer low ball rewards
From the second you agreed to the position
Slip into the mission to transition
Somewhere you can get it quick n' do less
That's winning

All my life they singing
Stop don't try come with me
All my life they pickin
What's simple, what's easy
That shit won't complete me

Curiosity, listen with ferocity
Analyze the cost and see
Pillars of the system, how does this machine
Take a dream and literally spit reality
Who are the people behind the scenes
What kind of knowledge do they bring
How many projects will I inevitably
Run A-Z?, what if I string
These meaningful philosophies
To the most regular of things
Could I not influence
Profit to fruition and glean
And be, in the next tier of being
I see the most regular achieve
And it's always consistency
Whether it's learning to come to grips
With the cards dealt, you know grit
Or taking advantage of the fact that
You're surrounded by egotists
All willing to prove they're specialists
A couple of questions, enthusiastic mentions
But no suggestions, offer much respect
Collect mental assets with earnest
Supplement intelligence
Fuck Chess, we on that Go sect
Check this investment
In like 10 years, this the beginning
Yeah, this be motherfucking winning, yeah

All my life they singing
Stop don't try come with me
All my life they pickin
What's simple, what's easy
That shit won't complete me
All my life they singing
Stop don't try come with me
All my life I'm living
Through simple, through easy
That shit won't defeat me

I once bred a culture of insecurity
I force fed the vultures and unknowingly
Reaped the reward of sowing negativity
Fuck, I didn't even want to spend time around me
I took a step back, to focus on the facts
Learned objectives aren't subjective and there's no tact
In spitting whenever, wherever, the impact
Of learning through error truth is rarely true, that
Changed everything, choose your own perception
Bring about reality and consequence
But only sing a tune appropriate for you
Focus on singeing what holds you in the loop
So you can git up, get out
And motherfucking do something
The fire in my belly pushing me to prove concepts
All I'm selling is your gut should guide your moves
Accept that winning means: you can progress you

All my life they singing
Stop don't try come with me
All my life I'm living
Through simple, through easy
That shit won't defeat me
