Work (Back Against the Wall)

Staring at death's eyes searching for higher options
A born leader prayin to God for my adoption
Speed bumps unacknowledged polished true emotions
Champagne pourin' while I'm book of Pslams bible quotin'
Might die before my time - Robert Kennedy
Billion dollar Instagram eye upon infinity
In America the women ain't pretty enough
We gamblin for British currency, no pity for us
Set the money on fire then I drown it in Ciroc
Real life pterodactyl flyin' with a eagle flock
Gucci purses for women I might never see
I feel like I might die if I go to sleep

Fly girl on the pole... she gon' make it work
Had my back against the wall but, I made it work
Start a riot in the pen made it go bezerk
Didn't have no other options so I had to work

WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK
Aye, we gon make 'em...
WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK
Aye, we gon make 'em...

Double jointed women summersaultin in my presence
A king by nature on the planet for the peasants
Slow flow cinematic like Spike Lee
The jury from Star Wars couldn't indict me
Blood pressure increasin' with every photo
But I won't ever change like the NBA logo
Fightin' for my amnesty givin me amnesia
We the thieves on the cross adjacent to Jesus
Shaka Zulu's aura, Kanye's medula
Gunnin at the offspring of Malcolm X's shootas
I'm inspired by historical artifacts
People say St. Louis died
... So I brought it back

Fly girl on the pole... she gon' make it work
Had my back against the wall but, I made it work
Start a riot in the pen made it go bezerk
Didn't have no other options so I had to work

WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK
Aye, we gon make 'em...
WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK
Aye, we gon make 'em...

Back against the wall but, I made it work
Money on the floor, let them girls twerk
Gave my brother 20 years, but he made it work
Nobody gave me nothin' - had to make it work
WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK
I had to make it work

Back against the wall but, I made it work
Money on the floor, let them girls twerk
Fly girl on the pole... she gon' make it work
Had my back against the wall but, I made it work
Start a riot in the pen made it go bezerk
Didn't have no other options so I had to work

WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK
Aye, we gon make 'em...
WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK
Aye, we gon make 'em...
