Mac Lethal - Weekly Wage lyrics

I said a weekly wage is an addiction It's so much worse than any drug You're a slave to security and comfort So you never pursue the things you love [x2] You got a job that you hate And every day you want to punch your f**in' boss in the face Direction lost and you're late There is a master piece inside of you that you gotta create But you whisper every time you're talking to fate See if you quit your job you won't have money (true) But one thing you will be is hungry (true) And you always turn creative and savage as f** When your life is hard and you ain't comfy See if you quit your job you won't have benefits (true) But one thing you will have is fitness (true) To innovate and learn and get a real work ethic So you can start your own damn business I mean what You want an easy answer You want someone to pat you on the head and tell you it will be okay You got the f**ing nerve to wonder why you're so depressed When you're sitting in a cubicle like 10 hours a day Working for a company that you don't really care about Helping build someone else's kingdom (true) That's a motherf**ing consequence of putting finances Over true happiness and freedom I said a weekly wage is an addiction It's so much worse than any drug You're a slave to security and comfort So you never pursue the things you love [x2] Now listen to me If you got a job and you love it then you should keep it But if you get a knot in your stomach after the weekend 'Cause you don't like mondays 'cause you'll be in an office all week not getting sun rays You feel like inside of you Deep inside of you There's an artist with an attitude Then listen to me This is what you gotta do You gotta stop being a f**ing corporate prostitute That is what you are my friend, I'm telling you the honest truth I understand my friend you gotta pay your bills and all So thinking about just walking out your job is no easy pill to swallow Plus what happens if you try to start your own company and it fails Oh my god what if you fail Well failure is a teacher that will tear your ACL During the first game of the season With your parents in the bleachers And failure is the teacher that has helped 100,000 lost sailors find the beaches Find the beaches I said a weekly wage is an addiction It's so much worse than any drug You're a slave to security and comfort So you never pursue the things you love [x2] You only get to live once One..... time You only get to live once Make the most of it Don't let money beat you to the point where you don't even enjoy your life Live in your car
