I was making pizza at home Grinding on the seventh floor She was in the city working hard to catch a break But this is just an over joy Making things are still in sore They say it all comes to those who wait But honestly the waiting game Is enough to drop a man insane I just wanna jump out of the block You know what I'm talking about Alot of living head to mount I'm always counting what I've got [Hook] 'Cause I don't wanna be like a machine Robots don't breathe Refuse to be like a machine Robots don't breathe I know that something's gotta give 'Cause the checks are coming slow When you know I gotta live So maybe I should get a 9 to 5 Put a chain around my neck So that we could stay alive Counting down the days until we die Life is more than punch a clock baby It's a lie We don't have to be some serpentry in a machine We could stay up in the clouds searching for the dream We don't have to buy into the scheme But man it seems That the market got us crawling on our hands and knees And the cash is the king and the plastic God Manifesting in your wallet like a master card That you swipe when you need a little fix Only 9.99 but it's really triple six And your mind playing tricks selling sh** that you don't need And you ain't fooling me [Hook] 'Cause I don't wanna be like a machine Robots don't breathe Refuse to be like a machine Robots don't breathe She was chilling home alone Up there on the seventh floor I was in the city working hard to catch a break But if we only persevere And everything will soon be clear We just gotta have a little faith Refuse to be like a machine Robots don't breathe Refuse to be like a machine Robots don't breathe
