Allen York x The Trackoholics - Hit A Lick / Lunchbox Interlude lyrics

This was one of my favorite records to make. I love taking things that people glorify, things people love to sing, catchy phrases and making them apply to myself. Not only myself but the majority of people who live a pretty boring, 9-5 life that don't have many artist speaking for them and to them. This is an important gap I like to fill, this is why I'm here and do music. Some say the working man is a s**er, and no one wants to hear their stories, but I get to differ “I just hit a lick, I just hit a lick My Direct Deposit hit and I ain't sold a brick” Most of us don't know the thrill or rush of dirty money or hand to hand transactions and the rush that avoiding the low whilee making a k**ing brings. What we do know is that joy waking up Friday mornings and knowing you've automatically surpa**ed your brokeness from yester “Ain't no shame if you getting it legit” It's amazing how many people will knock you just for holding a job. We're trying to stop to stop all that. That ain't cool. We going to glorify handling your business, even if it makes you miserable half the time, ha “Can I keep it real? Can I keep it real? I'm a buy these kicks way before these bills I know that ain't responsible and I know that I should save But paying bulls and saving money don't make me feel like the new Js” Man, I'm from Harlem, I been a victim of prioritizing all wrong to look good. I know I'm not the only one who would rather put a little on the cable but a lot on the wardrobe cause ef it, why not right? I do it for y'all Lunch Box Another one I had fun with. Started out with the phrase ‘lunch box'. Another one I didn't wanna overthink, just do. Not a full song but just a little story of shorty trying to give you the lunch box aka lunch s**. I mean, whats wrong with a little lunchbox?
