I´ve been workin´ this graveshift and I ain´t made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
I´ve been workin´ this graveshift and I ain´t made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
[Verse 1: Kanye West]
Man, man, man
If my manager insults me again I will be assaulting him
After I fuck the manager up then I´m gonna shorten the register up
Let´s go back, back to the Gap
Look at my check, wasn´t no scratch
So if I stole, wasn´t my fault
Yeah I stole, never got caught
They take me to the back and pat me
Askin´ me about some khakis
But let some black people walk in
I bet they show off their token blackie
Oh now they love Kanye, let´s put him all in the front of the store
Saw him on break next to the ´No Smoking´ sign with a blunt and a Mall´
Takin´ my hits, writin´ my hits
Writin´ my rhymes, playin´ my mind
This fuckin´ job can´t help him
So I quit, y´all welcome
Y´all don´t know my struggle
Y´all can´t match my hustle
You can´t catch my hustle
You can´t fathom my love dude
Lock yourself in a room doin´ five beats a day for three summers
That´s a different world like Kree Summers
I deserve to do these numbers
The kid that made that deserves that Maybach
So many records in my basement
I´m just waitin´ on my spaceship, blaow
[Hook: GLC]
I´ve been workin´ this graveshift and I ain´t made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
I´ve been workin´ this graveshift and I ain´t made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
[Verse 2: Consequence]
Man, I´m talkin´ way past the sky
Let´s go, yeah
And I didn´t even try to work a job
Represent the mob
At the same time thirsty on the grind
Chi state of mind
Lost my momma, lost my mind
life, my love that´s not mine
Why you ain´t signed?
Wasn´t my time
Leave me alone, work for y´all
Half of it´s yours, half of it´s mine
Only one to ball
Never one to fall
Gotta get mine
Gotta take mine
Got a tech nine
Reach my prime
Gotta make these haters respect mine
In the mall ´til 12 when my schedule wore headset nine
Puttin´ known ass on shelves
Waitin´ paitently I ask myself
Where I wanna go, where I wanna be
Life is much more than runnin´ in the streets
Holla at ´ye, hit me with the beat
Put me on my feet
Sound so sweet
Yes I´m the same ol´ G, same goatee
Stayin´ low key, nope
Holler at God "Man why´d you had to take my folks?"
Hope to see Freddy G., Yusef G
Love my G, Rolly G
Police watch me smoke my weed, count my G´s
Got a lot of people countin´ on me
And I´m just tryin´ to find my peace
Should of finished school like my niece
Then I wouldn´t finally wouldn´t use my piece, blaow
Aw man, all this pressure
[Hook: GLC]
I´ve been workin´ this graveshift and I ain´t made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
I´ve been workin´ this graveshift and I ain´t made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
[Verse 3: Consequence]
I remember havin´ to take the dollar cab
Comin´ home real late at night
Standin´ on my feet all damn day
Tryin´ to make this thing right
And havin´ one of my co-workers say "Yo you look just like
This kid I seen in the old Busta Rhymes video the other night"
Well easy come, easy go
How that sayin´ goes
No more broad service, cars, and them TV shows
I all had that snatched from me
And all the faculties all turn their back on me
And didn´t wanna hear a rap from me
So naturally actually had to face things factually
Had to be a catastrophe with the fridgest starin´ back at me
Cuz nothing´s there, nothing´s fair
I don´t wanna ever go back there
So I won´t be takin´ no days off ´til my spaceship takes off
[Hook: GLC]
I´ve been workin´ this graveshift and I ain´t made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
I´ve been workin´ this graveshift and I ain´t made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
[Outro: GLC]
I wanna fly, I wanna fly
I said I want my chariot to pick me up
And take me brother for a ride
