"Work on the Grind"
At night wide awake
At work on the grind
Sacrificing sleep love and life
For labour physical duh-uh-muhned
Friends and family suh-uh-huned.
Muscles squawk
Sweats leak
Funds mock
Always bleak.
Dead of night slave driven – bound
Dread of spherical morning light – drowned.
At night wide awake
At work on the grind
Sacrificing sleep love and life
For labour physical duh-uh-muhned
Friends and family suh-uh-huned.
Corporation manipulation
Program damnation
16 thru 75 – beyond
22:00 dawned, oh 6:00 abscond
Conned with zombies awned
Until that night re-spawned
Muscles squawk
Sweats leak
Funds mock
Always bleak.
Praise for moon-lit contribution sparse
Daylight recognition a mythical farce
At night wide awake
At work on the grind
Sacrificing sleep love and life
For labour physical duh-uh-muhned
Friends and family suh-uh-huned.
For corporation manipulation
Program damnation
16 thru 75 – beyond
22:00 dawned oh 6:00 abscond
Conned with zombies awned
Until that night re-spawned.

I can really relate to this. I suddenly remember all the times that I had to pull an all nighters ALONE in the office...(with no extra pay)
