Whatcha gonna do when they come for you Work ain't honest but it pays the bills What we gonna do when they come for you Gave me the life that I came to live Do I really Want my baby Brother tell me what to do I know you got to get your hustle on So I pray I understand the game, sometimes And I love you strong, but What you gonna do when they come for you Work ain't honest but it pays the bills (Yes, it does) What we gonna do when they come for you God I can't stand life withoutcha Now, me and baby got this situation See brotha got this complex occupation And it ain't that he don't have education Cause I was right there at his graduation Now, I ain't sayin' that this life don't work But it's me and baby that he hurts Cause I tell him right He thinks I'm wrong But I love him strong He gave me the life that I came to live Gave me the song that I came to give Pressure on me But the seed had grown I can't make it on my own Summer came around and the flowers bloomed He became the sun I became the moon Precious gifts that we both received Or could this be make believe Whatcha gonna do when they come for you Work ain't honest but it pays the bills (Work ain't honest but it pays the bills) What we gonna do when they come for you Gave me the life that I came to live Yes, you did Don't worry baby Don't I know there's confusion God's gonna see us through (yeah) Peace out to revolution But we paid though Don't you worry, keep your balance (What you gonna do, What you gonna do) The work ain't honest but it pays the bills (Yes it does) Don't you worry, keep your balance (Don't have to worry baby) Gave me the life that I came to live (Yes you did) Don't you worry, keep your balance The work ain't honest but it pays the bills The work ain't honest but it pays the bills Don't you worry, keep your balance You gave me the life that I came to live Gave me the song that I came to give Pressure on me But the seed had grown I can't make it on my own Summer came around and the flowers bloomed He became the sun, I became the moon Precious gifts that we both received Or could this be make believe Oh yeah Badu is with you baby Hmmm We gon' make it, yeah Me, you and the baby You gonna do Whatcha you gonna do Go, yeah, baby, baby Oh go on See I ain't tryin' to bind your life But I want you to do what's right And yeah I'm your wife Hmmm Peace out to revolution I know there's confusion You gonna what you gotta do now
