| We all live for the weekend
|
| Just tryna get by
|
| But losing track of time
|
| And we never need a reason
|
| To leave it all behind
|
| There’s only one thing on my mind
|
| Man, you know I tried my luck at a few day jobs
|
| And every single one I had I used to hate on
|
| I swear to God, I’d wake up every morning with a fake cough
|
| Hoping maybe I could get the day off
|
| I knew the safe option was to stay on
|
| Still I couldn’t help but muck around till I got laid off
|
| Rapping all day long tryna make songs
|
| Thinking to myself 'I hope this hard work pays off'
|
| So I told my friends «I'm an emcee»
|
| And they were like «PEZ, you’re a deadbeat» (yeah)
|
| How’re you gonna make the ends meet
|
| Rent’s steep, you won’t even make it to the next week
|
| And it seemed like
|
| There was a pretty good chance they would be right
|
| But I just kept holding onto my dream like «Nah
|
| I’m gonna get there in the end, but in the meantime»
|
| We all live for the weekend
|
| Just tryna get by
|
| But losing track of time
|
| And we never need a reason
|
| To leave it all behind
|
| There’s only one thing on my mind
|
| Before rap I was different in a way
|
| Tryna make a living as a chippy in the game
|
| My boss figured out a minimum to pay
|
| He was giving me a wage, I was literally a slave
|
| When’s this motherfucka giving me a raise?
|
| I can barely afford to put some dinner on my plate
|
| Spent every day wishing it’d rain
|
| 'Cause every time it rains you’d be finished for the day
|
| PEZ told me to give the shit away
|
| «Fuck work, there’s something bigger we can chase»
|
| Taught about belief and the difference it’d make
|
| Little did he know I would quit within a day
|
| And while at work I was dreaming (dreaming)
|
| Always thinking 'bout the weekend (weekend)
|
| I couldn’t wait till the week ends
|
| And it will end, but until then
|
| We all live for the weekend
|
| Just tryna get by
|
| But losing track of time
|
| And we never need a reason
|
| To leave it all behind
|
| There’s only one thing on my mind
|
| In the deep end
|
| On the grind
|
| 'Nother weekend
|
| Is on my mind
|
| In the deep end
|
| On the grind
|
| 'Nother weekend
|
| Is on my mind
|
| We all live for the weekend
|
| Just tryna get by
|
| But losing track of time
|
| And we never need a reason
|
| To leave it all behind
|
| There’s only one thing on my mind
|
| In the deep end
|
| On the grind
|
| 'Nother weekend
|
| Is on my mind |
