Need a Job
Need a Job
I’m just a young man trying to make it out here
Struggles and danger I’m trying to steer clear
Just out of high school, baby on the way
Oops, I was in love what can I say
My girl is always crying we gotta take care of the baby
She says it’s definitely yours, not a maybe
I’m trying to present and represent myself to get this jam
Chillin out thinking of all the times in school
I didn’t do my best and oh dam lacking in skills I am
Trying to complete this paperwork for 7.25 an hour
Definitely not a job of power
It aint easy to get this jank
Experience, education I have to leave blank
Driving on fumes thinking of a plan
Gotta be a man can’t grandstand
That won’t put bread in my pocket
Still trying to avoid being on a court docket
