five to nine - dasuki lyrics

verse 1

alarm bells cos rungs are missing from this corporate ladder
a 12 step program for culprits that are
just moths addicted to this juicy darkness called the limelight
yes you shine bright but do you shine right?
do your dreams give you peace when you hit the mattress
or do they crush diamonds just so you can access
bigger bank accounts with fat amounts
only to cash reality checks that bounce
waiting to pounce on every small business and suck the juice out their fruit of labour
with deals only good on paper
promises emptier than office sp*ces in marina
same goеs for most of our bellies food for thought is dinner
summеr body loading for some but somadina
these are the confessions of the saintly white collar sinners
spare a thought for the nameless workers who’s lives are caught up in it

hook

everyday on the streets trying to make that paper
(you and i, you and i)
we wan make ends meet, we wan build skyscr*pers
(you and i, you and i)
shey na 9*5 or 5*9?
we no know but we still dey grind
and traffic still dey make us burn up like vapour
all na make dem no talk say we lazy o
verse 2

i rep for the working class– yeah those people
the most docile of society yet the most lethal
if they ever chose to rise there would be a revolution with no equal
but settle for resolutions so feeble
breaking their backs to send their kids to a grade a college
looking fresh* only to gain stale knowledge
didn’t learn a thing from it, pay bills, homage, regurgitate and repeat dog eats the same vomit
i can relate because i came from it
parents bruise their kids for drawing superheroes yet it’s the parents who became comics
backbreaking mistakes are our bane but then
where there’s a will there’s a wayne call it a pain project
where there’s a wheel there’s a chair call it a lame subject
or call it whatever– just bob it for some kane profit
you’re next to bat man so make sure the kings, prophets and people remember you…
now go forth and create something incredible be unforgettable

hook

we wan make ends meet, we wan build skyscr*pers
(you and i, you and i)
shey na 9*5 or 5*9?
we no know but we still dey grind
and traffic still dey make us burn up like vapour
all na make dem no talk say we lazy
everyday on the streets trying to make that paper
(you and i, you and i)
we wan make ends meet, we wan build skyscr*pers
(you and i, you and i)
shey na 9*5 or 5*9?
we no know but we still dey grind
and traffic still dey make us burn up like vapour
all na make dem no talk say we lazy o
