- T.I. - Doin’ My Job Lyrics
- Uploaded by LOVE4LYRICS at Pastebin.com
- [T.I. - talking]
- Ay I'm working here, know what I'm saying
- Try to put yourself in my shoes for a second
- Its not personal I'm just sayin though
- [Verse 1]
- Ay look
- From when the moon came out 'till the sun came up
- I was supplyin the days when where they flame up
- Our mamas passing, by trying to explain us
- Pissing in the bushes like they never house trained us
- But, try to understand thats how we came up
- You get to know us, you'll love us but you can't change us (naw)
- Really we rather be rich and famous
- But in the mean time were forced to slang dust
- 'Dro or crack cocaine, Penicillin to Rogaine
- Ecstacy, Viagra, whatever'll get the dough mayne
- Im tired of people mis-representing my dough mayne
- Oh you think we out here killing for nothing, hustling
- for no gain (picture that)
- [Hook (sample playing in the background)]
- Hey man I'm just doing my job
- Hey lady, don't mind me I'm just doing my job
- I don't wanna make your life more harder, I'm just doin my job
- You live here, I work here I'm doing my job
- [Verse 2]
- I don't know if you don't know, don't care or can't see
- Every time something up in the hood, it ain't me
- And I ain't always up to no good and know the crease
- And we ain't always gotta pass through the hood without speaking (how you doing)
- We ain't out here threatining your lives, raping your children
- We just out here staying alive, making a million (you know)
- Working hard, trying to survive chasing a mill-ion
- You hear us talking loud, just think of this is chamelion
- React to the situations, but accusations is still
- We vulgarizing you how...hey man you just hurting my feelings (maaan).
- We got lives, we wanna live nice too
- We got moms, dads, wives, kids just like you
- But our options are few it hell in high school
- When your helping with the rent lights and the gas bill too
- So before you go judging us loving us won't hurt
- Yeah under 25, staying alive is hard work
- [Hook]
- [Verse 3]
- And for you to see what I'm saying, open eyes will help
- If you could think about somebody besides yourself
- Why you pointing fingers at me, analyze yourself
- Quit all that chastising and try to provide some help
- Instead of calling the law, you busting my balls
- With all due respect, we don't even need to be fucking with y'all (maan)
- And we can't help it cause it is like this
- We don't like it no more than you that we live like this
- Always stuck in the grind summertime to wintertime
- Cutting school to sell fifty dimes by dinner time
- See everything we know we learned from the streets
- Since thirteen I've been hustling and earning my keep
- [Hook]
