Doin' My Job

T.I.-Doin'My Job （Explicit Album Version）

Ay I'm working here know what I'm saying

Try to put yourself in my shoes for a second

It's not personal I'm just sayin'though

Ay look

From when the moon came out till the sun came up

I was supplyin'the days when where they flame up

Our mamas passing by trying to explain us

Pissing in the bushes like they never house trained us

But try to understand that's how we came up

You get to know us you'll love us

But you can't change us now

Really we rather be rich and famous

But in the mean time were forced to slang dust

Dro or crack coc*ine Penicillin to Rogaine

Ecstacy Viagra whatever'll get the dough mayne

I'm tired of people mis-representing my dough mayne

Oh you think we out here killing for nothing hustling

For no gain picture that

Hey man I'm just doing my job

Hey lady don't mind me I'm just doing my job

I don't wanna make your life more harder I'm just doin'my job

You live here I work here I'm doing my job

I don't know if you don't know don't care or can't see

Every time something up in the hood it ain't me

And I ain't always up to no good and know the crease

And we ain't always gotta pass

Through the hood without speaking how you doing

We ain't out here threatining your lives raping your children

We just out here staying alive making a million you know

Working hard trying to survive chasing a million

You hear us talking loud just think of this is chamelion

React to the situations but accusations is still

We vulgarizing you how hey man

You just hurting my feelings maaan

We got lives we wanna live nice too

We got moms dads wives kids just like you

But our options are few it hell in high school

When your helping with the rent lights and the gas bill too

So before you go judging us loving us won't hurt

Yeah under 25staying alive is hard work

Hey man I'm just doing my job

Hey lady don't mind me I'm just doing my job

I don't wanna make your life more harder

I'm just doin'my job

You live here I work here I'm doing my job

And for you to see

What I'm saying open eyes will help

If you could think about somebody besides yourself

Why you pointing fingers at me analyze yourself

Quit all that chastising and try to provide some help

Instead of calling the law you busting my balls

With all due respect

We don't even need to be f**king with y'all man

And we can't help it cause it is like this

We don't like it no more than you that we live like this

Always stuck in the grind summertime to wintertime

Cutting school to sell fifty dimes by dinner time

See everything we know we learned from the streets

Since thirteen I've been hustling and earning my keep

Hey man I'm just doing my job

Hey lady don't mind me I'm just doing my job

I don't wanna make your life more harder

I'm just doin'my job

You live here I work here I'm doing my job
