josh reid - work with what i got lyrics
[monologue: josh reid]
you know…
sometimes, you want to do so much
but you’re limited to so little
you can just do the best with what you’ve got
dream on
[refrain: josh reid]
well i work with what i got
garageband and a mic
in a room, with a couch
and a cat, and a light
get a beat, and i write
work it out, and recite
i’ll see you in the morning
i don’t go to sleep at night
[verse 1: josh reid]
well my life is like a dream
when you wake up and you want it back
you close your eyes, but you only see one tone of black
but i’m so fine with that
i’ll work to get it back
i think wait, i know i can
stay rolling on the on track
just keep me level headed
insane is what is dreaded
erase it then i edit
surgical like a medic
newer lyrical methods
taking lyrical lessons
but god’s the teacher, so i said i’d follow his directions
we got the camera work, i make a video
put it on youtube, facebook and vimeo
and also dailymotion, stay flowing like the ocean
i wish i’m out in cali, that’s just another notion
but i’m fine with where i’m at and you know that’s for sure
living in cleveland, ohio with a home where i’m secure
and i got my friends, (huh) well only one that’s by my side
summer living, all is hopeful
i’m just glad that i’m alive
[refrain]
[refrain part 2: josh reid]
well i work with what i got
only one goal in sight
where i work, and i write
and i reach, newer heights
and i hope, and i dream
the time is coming soon
i’ll just work with what i have
until the time is opportune
[verse 2: josh reid]
and i work with what i got
get a pay check, and save it
instead of messing round, or finding ways to go and wave it
ain’t gotta spend it now, i’ll save it ’til the time is right
and i know i’ll make it momma, see your boy is taking flight
what i have now is time
to work, to write
to rap, to grind
so one day i might
make it to the level where i know i wanna be
see the places that i wanted, but i knew i couldn’t see
[refrain part 3: josh reid]
and i work with what i got
a man and a computer
observing different lives that i can live throughout my future
what i’m working with is fine, i ain’t gotta brag about it
keep the thoughts up in my mind, so i ain’t have the chance to doubt it
i work with what i got (x4)
