Drugs & Jobs

"Drugs & Jobs"

Sometimes I feel like it's easier selling drugs then pleasing ya..
When I say "ya" I mean the system that was establish to bring us anguish..
The cliche black man excuse to never finish..
These jobs diminish my own dreams to make green for someone else's..
While I'm suppose to be selfish..
But then If I get my wish I be like everyone pointin the gun to get quick rich..
This cut throat environment ish I'm not wit..
But then haters tryna make a brother lose his only source of income to stay on the masters ..
Makin up shyt tryna be the favorite..
I hope the taste of failure taste good cause I won't quit..
And if ... It.. Actually happens..
Where I get fired..
I'll think About it.. If I get the get clappin or have ya jaw get wired..
But most likely .. I'll sit..
Kneel, pray to The Lord and let my soul higher..
Pray That you don't get the punishment that you can't afford and hopefully my peace retaliation gets you inspired..
But Sell drugs ?
Yeah Dont try it..
The freedom of being free but hurting others gets u wired..
But work for others ?
Yeah Don't try it..
Yes bite the hand that feeds you nothin and makes u tired..
I work hard cause I'm inspired to own my own business..
Drugs and Jobs?
Yeah there's no difference..
I Just hope don't become like the ones who gave us drugs, guns, sickness, and don't go to jail because they killed the Witnesses..
Yeah I mean US....
