I Only Ask For Honest Pay
she laid me off without a care, my welfare
was of no concern
at no point of return
my paper is short and pulling capers
only means a visit to court
that's never an enjoyment
I only ask for honest pay
my livelihood is approaching destroyment
no employment for a year, it's been awhile
since I bought gear
avoid crowds, stay home and
drink beer
too much pride for a tear
times is severe
so much anxiety, in a cold society
trying to keep on the path of sobriety
from day to day, I search for honest pay
and that's more than what most ni**az
around me can say
