[Hook: GLC]
|
I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit
|
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
|

[Verse 1: Kanye West]
|
Man, man, man
|
If my manager insults me again I will be assaulting him
|
After I fuck the manager up then I'm gonna shorten the register up
|
Let's go back, back to the Gap
|
Look at my check, wasn't no scratch
|
So if I stole, wasn't my fault
|
Yeah I stole, never got caught
|
They take me to the back and pat me
|
Askin' me about some khakis
|
But let some black people walk in
|
I bet they show off their token blackie
|
Oh now they love Kanye, let's put him all in the front of the store
|
Saw him on break next to the 'No Smoking' sign with a blunt and a Mall'
|
Takin' my hits, writin' my hits
|
Writin' my rhymes, playin' my mind
|
This fuckin' job can't help him
|
So I quit, y'all welcome
|
Y'all don't know my struggle
|
Y'all can't match my hustle
|
You can't catch my hustle
|
You can't fathom my love dude
|
Lock yourself in a room doin' five beats a day for three summers
|
That's a different world like Kree Summers
|
I deserve to do these numbers
|
The kid that made that deserves that Maybach
|
So many records in my basement
|
I'm just waitin' on my spaceship, blaow
|
|

[Verse 2: Consequence]
|
Man, I'm talkin' way past the sky
|
Let's go, yeah
|
And I didn't even try to work a job
|
Represent the mob
|
At the same time thirsty on the grind
|
Chi state of mind
|
Lost my momma, lost my mind
|
+My life, my love+ that's not mine
|
Why you ain't signed?
|
Wasn't my time
|
Leave me alone, work for y'all
|
Half of it's yours, half of it's mine
|
Only one to ball
|
Never one to fall
|
Gotta get mine
|
Gotta take mine
|
Got a tech nine
|
Reach my prime
|
Gotta make these haters respect mine
|
In the mall 'til 12 when my schedule wore headset nine
|
Puttin' known ass on shelves
|
Waitin' paitently I ask myself
|
Where I wanna go, where I wanna be
|
Life is much more than runnin' in the streets
|
Holla at 'ye, hit me with the beat
|
Put me on my feet
|
Sound so sweet
|
Yes I'm the same ol' G, same goatee
|
Stayin' low key, nope
|
Holler at God "Man why'd you had to take my folks?"
|
Hope to see Freddy G., Yusef G
|
Love my G, Rolly G
|
Police watch me smoke my weed, count my G's
|
Got a lot of people countin' on me
|
And I'm just tryin' to find my peace
|
Should of finished school like my niece
|
Then I wouldn't finally wouldn't use my piece, blaow
|
Aw man, all this pressure
|
|
[Hook: GLC]

I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

[Verse 3: Consequence]
|
I remember havin' to take the dollar cab
|
Comin' home real late at night
|
Standin' on my feet all damn day
|
Tryin' to make this thing right
|
And havin' one of my co-workers say "Yo you look just like
|
This kid I seen in the old Busta Rhymes video the other night"
|
Well easy come, easy go
|
How that sayin' goes
|
No more broad service, cars, and them TV shows
|
I all had that snatched from me
|
And all the faculties all turn their back on me
|
And didn't wanna hear a rap from me
|
So naturally actually had to face things factually
|
Had to be a catastrophe with the fridgest starin' back at me
|
Cuz nothing's there, nothing's fair
|
I don't wanna ever go back there
|
So I won't be takin' no days off 'til my spaceship takes off
|
|
[Hook: GLC]

I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

[Outro: GLC]
|
I wanna fly, I wanna fly
|
I said I want my chariot to pick me u |
