[00:06.19] |
Fear, fear's a powerful thing. |
[00:09.35] |
I mean it's got a lot of firepower. |
[00:12.88] |
If you can figure out a way to wrestle that fear to push you from behind |
[00:19.17] |
rather than to stand in front of you, that's very powerful. |
[00:24.90] |
I always felt that I had to work harder than the next guy, |
[00:29.79] |
just to do as well as the next guy. |
[00:32.70] |
And to do better than the next guy, |
[00:34.36] |
I had to just kill. And you know, |
[00:38.29] |
to a certain extent, |
[00:39.80] |
that's still with me in how I work, |
[00:42.02] |
you know, I just... go in |
[00:43.17] |
|
[00:43.37][Verse 1: Anderson .Paak] |
|
[00:47.05] |
Sittin' 'bout a hundred stories up, like what the ***********? |
[00:50.67] |
And I'm just lookin' at it all |
[00:52.59] |
I'll be right here in Los Angeles |
[00:55.66] |
Lookin' like a villain layin' low |
[00:58.68] |
Nothin' I can do but pack it all up |
[01:00.89] |
Goin' up, but ***********t, I feel the love |
[01:04.07] |
Spotlight on me and I'm feelin' so rare tonight |
[01:07.44] |
Actin' a fool and feelin' alive |
[01:09.65] |
I'm ***********' flawless like I live in a vault |
[01:12.68] |
Only type of livin' I know |
[01:13.33] |
|
[01:13.88][Interlude: Anderson .Paak + Dr. Dre] |
|
[01:17.75] |
See if it was you you would've killed yourself by now |
[01:20.33] |
It takes a special kind of *********a to live like this |
[01:26.21] |
And they ask me how I do it |
[01:28.14] |
*********a just take a look around |
[01:30.45] |
Best believe I'm in the buildin' I hear you *********as talkin' and all that but uh |
[01:37.41] |
No, no don't mention me at all |
[01:38.97] |
Yeah comin' live and direct |
[01:41.60] |
And I know you feelin' some type of way about it, but uh |
[01:43.25] |
Watch your mouth, I dare your ass to say somethin' |
[01:45.83] |
I thought it was all good |
[01:47.23] |
But now you *********as crossed the line |
[01:49.45] |
Kinda pissin' me off |
[01:51.00] |
All the fans and all the fame, and though I gave everything to this game |
[01:54.03] |
They still complain |
[01:55.85] |
Now what the *********** do y'all expect me to do? |
[01:58.56] |
There's so much ***********' pressure |
[02:00.41] |
There's all this pressure |
[02:01.97] |
And it's all in a day's work |
[02:02.52] |
|
[02:02.92][Bridge 2: Marsha Ambrosius] |
|
[02:11.21] |
Work, hard |
[02:12.52] |
Workin' so hard |
[02:14.39] |
24/7, 3-6-5 |
[02:16.70] |
365, hard work |
[02:19.07] |
It's all in a day's work |
[02:20.17] |
|
[02:20.72][Verse 2: Dr. Dre + Anderson .Paak] |
|
[02:26.32] |
My whole life all I ever thought about was grindin' |
[02:28.29] |
Even though my surroundings only showed me crime and violence |
[02:31.21] |
That was back when a rapper needed guns way more than a stylus |
[02:34.07] |
And that was back when I felt like rappers was true *********in' riders |
[02:37.04] |
Or even back in the day when I was a ***********' youngster |
[02:39.91] |
***********t I was still sayin', "*********** the police" |
[02:42.12] |
Born and raised in the belly of the beast |
[02:46.00] |
I had a dream that we was at peace |
[02:49.07] |
But I was so wrong.. so wrong |
[02:50.38] |
Y'all too wrapped up in the bull***********t and bias |
[02:52.54] |
Now reality TV talks about pulpits and choirs |
[02:55.26] |
Some of these hoes give less than a *********** when they runnin' their life story by us |
[02:58.08] |
It's the worst when I'm in a hotel, like a Hilton sick and tired |
[03:01.15] |
Some of these housewives way too ***********' desperate |
[03:03.87] |
These *********** thinkin' fame first |
[03:05.43] |
I can't knock the hustle, it's all in a day's work |
[03:09.11] |
But that's that ***********t with potential to make the game worse |
[03:11.27] |
***********t it's just somethin' about that Hollywood curse |
[03:14.03] |
They just thirst |
[03:14.39] |
|
[03:14.79][Hook: Anderson .Paak] |
|
[03:15.20] |
Hard times |
[03:16.04] |
I'm on my grind, *********** the part-time |
[03:18.16] |
Stay ready for war, I'm on the front line |
[03:20.94] |
I'm gettin' the feelin' like it's all mine |
[03:23.91] |
It's becoming the only feeling I know |
[03:27.59] |
Only type of livin' I know |
[03:29.96] |
Only type of livin' I know |
[03:32.92] |
Only type of livin' I know |
[03:36.19] |
Only type of livin' I know |
[03:36.59] |
|
[03:37.51][Interlude] |
|
[03:51.45] |
Gonna go to work |
[03:52.51] |
We gotta work |
[03:53.52] |
We gotta work |
[03:57.09] |
Let's get back to work |
[03:59.66] |
On the grind, back to work |
[04:02.18] |
|
[04:02.83][Outro: Dr. Dre] |
|
[04:03.13] |
Let's work |
[04:04.04] |
Rich as ***********, but, guess what, I'm back to work |
[04:05.74] |
Overseas, back home, no time to sleep, I'm back to work |
[04:08.62] |
So many people that I love, they want my time but I got to work |
[04:11.54] |
Some of my friends don't understand I got to work |
[04:14.56] |
Always talkin' 'bout bustin' the club but I'm like, "*********** that I gotta work" |
[04:17.43] |
If you really wanna do it like this, ***********t you better get back to work |
[04:20.54] |
Back to work |
[04:22.81] |
Right back to work |
[04:24.03] |
Gotta get back to work |
[04:25.39] |
***********t, right back to work |
