alfie carr - working day lyrics

[verse 1]
look
always jumped on the last train
outside it was pouring down with heavy rain
ram packed, people wrapping up their working day
excuse me, was the only thing that people say
next to me, theres a seat that’s empty
a brunette girl came and sat in that place
she seemed happy, went and asked me about my day
then my stop came, and i went about my way
for the rest of the evening
i didn’t rest instead i searched on indeed
i need some money
to satisfy my needs
a waiter, a driver, anything please
deep down i know that rapping on beats
won’t get me anywhere, i’ll end up living on the streets
people say that you should chase your dreams
but it’s tough that dream starts breaking at the seams

[verse 2]
then the next day came
swiped my card
going surrey to south gate
had to hurry didn’t wanna miss the last train
looked up and i recognised that same face
she was poised, sitting in that same place
it’s not right, there’s somethings ticking inside
i came up and i asked her what’s her on mind
then she replied
im sorry i’m 35
working everyday, i’m living 9+5
i have a dead end job and i’m dead inside
do what you love kid and don’t live your life like mine
people see me and think that money is my only prize
i guess that happens when youre top of an enterprise
all i wanna be is a loving mummy
but mummy’s never home and has to always work over time
and over time
the trouble starts to build up
but you son, you got double of my life time
choose what you want, and never lose that big stride
i have money but i’m poorer on the inside

[verse 3]
and that was that
i came back home and i slung off my backpack
then i went and decided to backtrack
did i listen to what she really meant
it’s not my mission to live and only the pay the rent
when i was ten
my mission was to see big ben
now i’m here, writing raps with a quill pen
wonder how many kids feared ending in the pen

now picture yourself
44 and unhappy
you’re still, dead on the floor
that’s not something that you dreamed of when you was small and four
do something that you love
something while smiling for
