For the last year I haven't been able to make music like I've wanted to due to a full time job I got at a call center. I recently quit that job to do music full time. This short song is basically a song about talking yourself out of pursuing your dreams and more specifically, my experience with working there.
lyrics
Woke up like a rhombus
Travel from the dream realm
Carrier falcon sunk his damn
Talons in my arm pits
It's a strange feeling switching cubicle positions
Then when I'm home I shifting into alternate plains of existence
Or maybe it's not
Either way it's smoothie day at the 9-5
I'll take the energy boost in hopes it makes me feel alive
Become an advent for this questionable business practice
Bi-quarterly dollar raise my left-brain Novocain
On the phones
As I ascend the Corporate ladder
Helpings cats off tree branches
Keeping callers flattered
Screens got me seeing spots
Props to medical benefits
At least I get a free lens a year
I'm in heaven bitch
I get
Perks perks perks
When I work work work
Watch me ride round town in my company shirt
I should snap on a mother fucker so they fire me
However if the raps backfire they won't hire me
Working in a center makes me wish I was a tire swing
Money lets me help my momma relish in the finer things
Momma wants a Vitamix
Spend my time thinkin that maybe I could write a lick if could get the early shift
Maybe I should find a lady, settle, build a family
Use 2 weeks of pto to break for my sanity
Hey Mag I ain't seen you in a little bit
What happened the Dalliance?
Why you ain't releasing shit
Need some help wit PR bro
Your page Is looking negligent
YEAH BUT I GOT HEALTH INSURANCE NOW SO I'M IN HEAVEN BITCH
I get
Perks perks perks
When I work work work
Watch me ride round town in my company shirt
Ring ring ring
Thanks for calling in
You have reached a real life representative
Call me if you need someone
To listen to you whine
My Manager's unable to assist you at this time
