daniel sherman (@musicbydanielsherman) - workin' lyrics

[verse 1]
you can say it’s not for you
and i will not take offense
but do not try to tell me it’s not hard work
and diligence
it feels like every week i’m on a new single
i pitched a tent
on a project, then packed it up to do it all once again
i’m working like i depend
on this or else i’ll be dead
can’t miss a shift or i’m headed
straight to “rip”, bitter end
i’m better than last attempt
and that fills you with contempt
i’d keep your mouth shut, my friend
you’re net welcome in my head
no one can deny my grind, i write like i’m ’boutta die
like hamilton, it’s like eliza said, like i’m outta time
i try to reply to life in my lines every time
it’s like i publicize my diary, hi, you’re in my mind
i’m inconsistent with timing but stay consistent with my rhymes
you can’t resist it, it’s fine like wine, you’re mine now
inclined to recognize that
[chorus]
i’m workin’
flirting with my burdens
it’s a curse to be uncertain
need it perfect, never heard of it
but still, i stay workin’
if it’s real i’ma find it
will you like it
even if i strike diamond?

[verse 2]
and will you listen even if i get signed?
you mention me with negativity when i walk by
but to my face, you wipe the traces of the hate, stay silent
bunch of fakes in my city, it’s why i try to ride away
cause when the snakes look pretty it just hurts more when they bite
betrayal’s
part of their coding
it’s eroding their dna
just wait, if i start exploding
they’re all gonna transfigurate
they’ll say they’re my gasoline
they’re fanning me while i catch fire
but i know who ain’t for me
i’ll see them and ice+skate by
i’m headed back to work, my guy
that’s my infinity sign
because the beat is my ice rink
and the music is my trace lines
don’t rate my form if you’re not in this industry
no it’s mine
and that’s why
[bridge]
i’m workin’, i’m workin’, i’m workin’, i’m workin’
i said, i said
i’m workin’, i’m workin’, i’m workin’, i’m workin’ it

[chorus]
i’m workin’
flirting with my burdens
it’s a curse to be uncertain
need it perfect, never heard of it
but still, i stay workin’
if it’s real i’ma find it
will you like it
even if i strike diamond?

[verse 3]
diamonds come with pressure
so pressuring me is better
just don’t act surprised when i evolve and you’re still tethered
to talking ’bout what’s not your business, while the rest of us get up
and put the work in for our dreams
you think you’re fine but you’re settling
into a life you might regret in 5 years, maybe 20
but i won’t have no regrets because i chased just what i wanted
what’s the point of talking trash to me if your home is rotting?
because you live in a dumpster, look, i am so done responding
and i’ma do what i always do
write what’s on my mental
if that’s not for you, that’s cool to choose
just keep it confidential
and as always
[chorus]
i’m workin’
flirting with my burdens
it’s a curse to be uncertain
need it perfect, never heard of it
but still, i stay workin’
if it’s real i’ma find it
will you like it
even if i strike diamond?

and i’ma stay workin’
flirting with my burdens
it’s a curse to be uncertain
need it perfect, never heard of it
but still, i stay workin’
if it’s real i’ma find it
will you like it
even if i strike diamond?

[outro]
probably not
jerks…
