Living in this city ain't no joke

I'm working 24/7 to stay broke,

Wages is all about availability

Not contribution or slavery,

Homies always telling us to stay down

Then we forget our true noun,

Ring around the rosie to get the trophy

But food, houses, college is getting pricey,

We don't have to take classes to learn we are part of the math

Credit crisis affecting the low and middle class,

hashtag and pray for some money and honey

Work hard to increase the overall salary,

But once your demands are too high

It might be the day your boss says goodbye,

They say it's all about job security

But still, their ain't no certainty, or money,

If you can't network with people here

Then what expects you can, there?

Then they say you might miss the experience

But hey, I was always distant and silent,

I'm a Netflix and chill dimension

Why the f*** would I wanna be with people I have no connections?

"I'm sorry if I seem uninterested" Alessica cara replay

Why was I here anyway?

Education a privilege not a right

These teachers that went to college had the right price,

exponential growth, this ain't no joke

Am I going to college to stay broke?

If you ain't got a scholarship/grant rides, or hustle day and night

Then I guess we all might have to risk the price and hustle till we die,
