Artist: Perfeck Strangers (Dan-e-o & Promise) f/ Drake Album: Work to Do {S} Song: Work to Do (Original Version) Typed by: dan-e-o.com, Nickolye16@aol.com [Chorus] "I, I got work to do..." [Promise] These days it seems we can't make money, like, Drake money, right Every week the government gon' take money, why? Gotta check ten percent to RRSP After rent spent, nothing left for artistry Plus my wife's like "Hopefully he don't forget the groceries I hope that he knows we got kids in these ovary eggs" But before one of 'em gets made We need to see one of us get paid None of it seems strange, it's the way that it is It's just not the truth that we say to our kids, they fibs Last week I had to ask my landlord if there was anything in my crib he'd give cash for All he asked for, was my passport I just need to make sure you pay me, that's all So I ask God, at first it's You Help me out, I got some work to do I know [Chorus] "I, I got work to do..." "I, I got work to do..." [Drake] Ohh~! I got work to do man We some hustlers, we gotta get this money These days a nigga can't break twenties, honey, make money, money Every month the government'll take money, from me I made 7-50, look how quickly I spent that But don't call me broke cause I strictly resent that Last month past I had to flip me the rent Because the tax bracket I'm in is 50 percent flat All because of eBay givin me leeway Basically due to PayPal I need a raise now Seems that every time a nigga's stoppin to eat I'll end up always tryin to shop and compete They know that a nigga buys if they got it in his size Then he cops it in more colors than Popsicle Pete 'Til I'm positive I will proceed Trust in stores and I don't understand less is more Wanna get 'em all to the point where they owe me They gon' see that Drake's on his J-O-B It's like [Chorus] "I, I got work to do..." "I, I got work to do..." [Dan-e-o] Huh, I most certainly do And I been workin overtime How long's it gonna take before I see money, breddren? The streets call me "legend" But D's crummy, spendin receives funny, mentions Like truthfully, how long does a dude need to be doin this before his pursuit of riches is deemed to be foolishness? I use excuses like "the less I make, the less they take" But that's so fake, see I updated my résumé yesterday Drake's now world renowned, Promise signed to Duck Down That leaves Dan-e-o as the only one who's stuck now It sucks how ain't nobody ever put me on Come on Kanye or Wayne, or anyone hearing this song! Somethin's wrong, when your friends be askin "What's happenin?" For the last time, that's it! Yes, I'm still rappin! Like I still breathe, still eat and still blink And still think, should I leave a tip for this drink cause I might need the change, man this game really gets to me I own a crib but can't afford my destiny [Chorus] "I, I got work to do..." "I, I got work to do..." "I, I got work to do..." "I, I got work to do..."
