Lyrics:

(feat. GLC, Consequence)



[Hook: GLC]

I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky



[Verse 1: Kanye West]

Man, man, man

If my manager insults me again I will be assaulting him

After I fuck the manager up then I'm gonna shorten the register up

Let's go back, back to the Gap

Look at my check, wasn't no scratch

So if I stole, wasn't my fault

Yeah I stole, never got caught

They take me to the back and pat me

Askin' me about some khakis

But let some black people walk in

I bet they show off their token blackie

Oh now they love Kanye, let's put him all in the front of the store

Saw him on break next to the 'No Smoking' sign with a blunt and a Marl'

Takin' my hits, writin' my hits

Writin' my rhymes, playin' my mind

This fuckin' job can't help him

So I quit, y'all welcome

Y'all don't know my struggle

Y'all can't match my hustle

You can't catch my hustle

You can't fathom my love dude

Lock yourself in a room doin' five beats a day for three summers

That's a different world like Cree Summers

I deserve to do these numbers

The kid that made that deserves that Maybach

So many records in my basement

I'm just waitin' on my spaceship, blaow



[Hook: GLC]

I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky



[Verse 2: Consequence]

Man, I'm talkin' way past the sky

Let's go, yeah

And I didn't even try to work a job

Represent the mob

At the same time thirsty on the grind

Chi state of mind

Lost my momma, lost my mind

+My life, my love+ that's not mine

Why you ain't signed?

Wasn't my time

Leave me alone, work for y'all

Half of it's yours, half of it's mine

Only one to ball

Never one to fall

Gotta get mine

Gotta take mine

Got a tech nine

Reach my prime

Gotta make these haters respect mine

In the mall 'til 12 when my schedule wore headset nine

Puttin' those pants(?) on shelves

Waitin' paitently I ask myself

Where I wanna go, where I wanna be

Life is much more than runnin' in the streets

Holla at 'ye, hit me with the beat

Put me on my feet

Sound so sweet

Yes I'm the same ol' G, same goatee

Stayin' low key, nope

Holler at God 'Man why'd you had to take my folks?'

Hope to see Freddy G., Yusef G

Love my G, Rolly G

Police watch me smoke my weed and count my G's

Got a lot of people countin' on me

And I'm just tryin' to find my peace

Should of finished school like my niece

Then I wouldn't finally wouldn't use my piece, blaow

Aw man, this pressure



[Hook: GLC]

I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky



[Verse 3: Consequence]

I remember havin' to take the dollar cab

Comin' home real late at night

Standin' on my feet all damn day

Tryin' to make this thing right

And havin' one of my co-workers say 'Yo you look just like

This kid I seen in the old Busta Rhymes video the other night'

Well easy come, easy go

How that sayin' goes

No more broad service, cars, and them TV shows

I all had that snatched from me

And all the faculties all turn their back on me

And didn't wanna hear a rap from me

So naturally actually had to face things factually

Had to be a catastrophe with the fridgest starin' back at me

Cuz nothing's there, nothing's fair

I don't wanna ever go back there

So I won't be takin' no days off 'til my spaceship takes off



[Hook: GLC]

I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky



[Outro: GLC]

I wanna fly, I wanna fly

I said I want my chariot to pick me up

And take a brother for a ride
