I was supplyin' the days with what they flame up
When your helping with the rent lights and the gas bill too
You get to know us, you'll love us but you can't change us
Quit all that chastising and try to provide some help
And robbing your house, now you just hurting my feelings man
Hey man I'm just doing my job
I don't wanna make your life more harder, I'm just doin' my job
Really we rather be rich and famous
Look from when the moon came out till the sun came up
Oh you think we out here killing for nothing, hustling
For no gains picture that
You live here, I work here I'm doing my job
I'm tired of people misrepresenting my dough mayne
See everything we know we learned from the streets
If you're under 25, staying alive is hard work
'Dro or crack cocaine, penicillin to rogaine
Instead of calling the law, and busting my balls
We got moms, dads, wives, kids just like you
You live here, I work here I'm doing my job
With all due respect, we don't even be fucking with y'all man
Hey lady, don't mind me I'm just doing my job
Pissing in the bushes like they never house trained us
And ye' ain't always gotta pass through
Why you pointing fingers at me, analyze yourself
We got lives, we wanna live nice too
So before you go judging us loving us won't hurt
Hey man I'm just doing my job
Our mamas passing by, trying to explain us
I don't wanna make your life more harder, I'm just doin' my job
Ecstacy, Viagra, whatever'll get the dough mayne
But in the mean time were forced to slang dust
But our options are fewer, it's hell in high school
You hear us talking loud, just think of us as chamelions
The hood without speaking how you doing
We don't like it no more than you that we live like this
And we can't help it 'cause it is like this
I don't wanna make your life more harder, I'm just doin' my job
Cut school, and sell fifty dimes by dinner time
Hey man I'm just doing my job
Adaptin' to situations, but accusations is still there
Hey lady, don't mind me I'm just doing my job
And for you to see what I'm saying, open eyes would help
Working hard, trying to survive chasing a billion
If you could think about somebody besides yourself
Every time something up in the hood, it ain't me
Hey lady, don't mind me I'm just doing my job
Since thirteen I've been hustling and earning my keep
We just out here staying alive, making a lil' bit you know
But, try to understand thats how we came up
I don't know if you don't know, don't care or can't see
And I ain't always up to no good and on the creep
We ain't out here threatining your lives, raping your children
Always, stuck in the grind, from summertime to wintertime
It's not personal I'm just sayin' though
