Workin' It Out

A rap I wrote when I was in a rapping mood.

All work and no play may make Jack dull
But the way I see it that’s nothing but bull
Cuz my work is my play
My job is my game
Respect is my name
And after I’m through
Nothin will ever be the same
For me or for you

Nine to five, going hard
Shooting at the moon
And catchin them stars
No obstacle to rough
No going to tough
I push right on through
And ain’t nothin’ you can do
To stop me from being who
I came to be and you know it’s true

I lay down my best
Never give it a rest
Never get any rest
Just above all the rest
Just takin the test
Though I gotta confess
Sometimes it’s a mess
But I aim for the best
And I expect no less

I had my back to the plow
And just look at me now
I’m living the life I set out to have
I ain’t gonna go
No expiration date here
Cuz I never go bad
I always stay fresh
I always stay fly
And I’ll be this way even after I die
