[Verse 1] Hittin the commute My life is feeling mute I'm stuck in this pipe like a mothaf**in flute Chopped up like prosciutt' Throw me in some pasta Trying to add some spice in ya life like rasta Hit the LIRR I can't afford to drive my car Would be workin at a bar But my job's got benefits My life ain't eggs and Benedict I've lost a lot of friends and sh** All for this f**in pension sh** Watch me craft my penmanship, Yeah, Yeah Every day's the same routine Hop up off the train and leave Workin at a desk You think you're better than the rest But you got sh** up on your chest Spent your savings on a suit Hoping one day you'll get the boot [Hook] As I sit and look at life from an angle that's obtuse I notice mothaf**ers have a few screws loose They taking the abuse and it's proof that they're shattered They do the same sh** like their life doesn't matter Ladies and gentlemen line up for the a**embly Same sh** different day those people I don't envy Their lives and feeling empty and I'm sensing desperation But their jobs are secure that's why they full of hesitation [Verse 2] Maybe I'm just hatin That I didn't land a basic 9-5 job right when I graduated I debated Got my series 7 to flip some stocks sh** was just as cold as Kettle 1 on the rocks Filling up my metro I was feeling special Every day I'd make myself a cup of espresso I knew from the get-go That this sh** wasn't me Standing on the phone all day long Not my cup of tea Took my degree And I put it in the shredder Started feeling better They call me rap's salt and pepper Sodium and spice Mix it in ya life When you chase ya pa**ion you don't care about the price [Hook]
