[00:10.384][T.I. - talking]
[00:12.656]Ay I'm working here, know what I'm saying
[00:14.824]Try to put yourself in my shoes for a second
[00:18.377]Its not personal I'm just sayin though
[00:22.139][Verse 1]
[00:27.389]Ay look
[00:28.121]From when the moon came out 'till the sun came up
[00:31.151]I was supplyin' the days when where they flame up
[00:34.051]Our mamas passing, by trying to explain us
[00:36.820]Pissing in the bushes like they never house trained us
[00:39.536]But, try to understand thats how we came up
[00:42.854]You get to know us, you'll love us but you can't change us (naw)
[00:45.701]Really we rather be rich and famous
[00:48.235]But in the mean time were forced to slang dust
[00:51.631]'Dro or crack *******, Penicillin to Rogaine
[00:54.060]Ecstacy, ******, whatever'll get the dough mayne
[00:57.143]I'm tired of people misrepresenting my domain
[00:59.912]Oh you think we out here killing for nothing, hustling
[01:02.916]For no gain (picture that)
[01:03.334][Chorus] (sample playing in the background)
[01:05.737]Hey man I'm just doing my job
[01:12.424]Hey lady, don't mind me I'm just doing my job
[01:17.858]I don't wanna make your life more harder, I'm just doin my job
[01:23.422]You live here, I work here I'm doing my job
[01:25.381][Verse 2]
[01:25.799]I don't know if you don't know, don't care or can't see
[01:28.516]Every time something up in the hood, it ain't me
[01:31.598]And I ain't always up to no good and on the creep
[01:34.080]So you ain't always gotta pass through the hood without speaking (how you doin'?)
[01:37.685]We ain't out here threatening your lives, raping your children
[01:40.140]We just out here staying alive, making a million (you know)
[01:43.144]Working hard, trying to survive chasing a mill-ion
[01:45.992]You hear us talking loud, just think of us as chameleons
[01:48.917]Adapting to situations, but accusations of stealing
[01:51.686]And burglarizing your house, I mean you just hurting my feelings
[01:54.351]We got lives, we wanna live nice too
[01:57.433]We got moms, dads, wives, kids just like you
[02:00.228]But our options are few, it's hell in high school
[02:02.997]When your helping with the rent lights and the gas bill too
[02:06.132]So before you go judging us loving us won't hurt
[02:08.640]When you're under 25, staying alive's hard work
[02:11.357][Chorus] (sample playing in the background)
[02:13.734]Hey man I'm just doing my job
[02:21.153]Hey lady, don't mind me I'm just doing my job
[02:26.586]I don't wanna make your life more harder, I'm just doin my job
[02:32.464]You live here, I work here I'm doing my job
[02:34.684][Verse 3]
[02:35.050]And for you to see what I'm saying, open eyes will help
[02:37.322]If you could think about somebody besides yourself
[02:40.248]Why you pointing fingers at me, ****yze yourself
[02:42.939]Quit all that chastising and try to provide some help
[02:45.812]Instead of calling the law and busting my *****
[02:48.816]With all due respect, we don't even be ****ing with y'all (maan)
[02:51.690]And we can't help it cause it is like this
[02:54.877]We don't like it no more than you that we live like this
[02:57.881]Always stuck in the grind, summertime to wintertime
[03:00.467]Cutting school to sell fifty dimes by dinner time
[03:03.706]See everything we know we learned from the streets
[03:06.266]Since thirteen I've been hustling and earning my keep
[03:09.192][Chorus] (sample playing in the background)
[03:13.215]Hey man I'm just doing my job
[03:18.178]Hey lady, don't mind me I'm just doing my job
[03:23.899]I don't wanna make your life more harder, I'm just doin my job
[03:29.620]You live here, I work here I'm doing my job
