ezedike - workin' lyrics

[intro: kwame ture]
we must understand clearly when we talk about capitalism
who are the capitalists?
cause if we understand
that there are only a few people
who own and control the means of production in the society
then we begin to understand
that there are a few capitalists
and these capitalists exploit everybody
because everybody works for them
everybody sells their labor to them
it is by sеlling your labor
to a capitalist
that he’s really able to еxploit you
instead of going through theory
let me give some direct example

[verse]
dan clock in at his 9 to 5
pretend like he don’t hate his life
some call it ambition, or drive
don’t know but he’s just tryna survive
and timothy on his way
he gotta take a bus and a train
downtown to a job that he hates
no time to rest today
you wanna advance, but they don’t care
you want equity, but you got nappy hair
and they scheme, cause everyone can’t have the american dream
make ends meet while your bones creak
and when you get sick, stay on your feet
when life gets hard, pull yourself up by your bootstraps
[chorus]
pure disaster
what we after?
turnin’ the cogs
we’re stuck in the machine
and is it worth it?
our planets hurtin’
we all workin’
but it ain’t workin’

[verse]
sarah’s lookin for a way out
yeah, she just tryna find her way now
slave to the system
stuck in a schism
f+ck capitalism (huh!)
sandra’s tryin to start a business
tryna hustle for her children
there’s gotta be another way
there’s gotta be another way
cause we all one
said we all one
d+mn right, got something to fight for
break all your chains
it’s time to stake a claim
[chorus]
pure disaster
what we after?
turnin’ the cogs
we’re stuck in the machine
and is it worth it?
our planets hurtin’
we all workin’
but it ain’t workin’

[bridge]
you can turn a little nothin into somethin
you can turn a little nothin into somethin
you can turn a little nothin into somethin
come here and we’ll give you what you’re wantin
you can turn a little nothin into somethin
you can turn a little nothin into somethin
you can turn a little nothin into somethin
america’s gonna give you what you’re wantin

[chorus]
pure disaster
what we after?
turnin’ the cogs
we’re stuck in the machine
and is it worth it?
our planets hurtin
we all workin’
but it ain’t workin’
