"Career" lyrics
"Career"
Career
He went and got a career
He sold all of his paints and bought a phone plan
He wanted someone to show everyone
He wasn't slow though, got it for low low
Ditched his friends, went with the flow
Said hard work is its own reward
Bought a silk tie and an '09 Ford
Career
He put all his ambitions inside a basket
From the cradle to the casket
Put away such childish things
Father Ray said, "Son"
"You'll go far if you know the score"
Bought a silk tie and an '09 Ford
Career
He went and got a career
C-C-C-C
Said hard work is its own reward
Bought a silk tie and an '09 Ford
Once used to be the enemy of the bourgeoisie
Now he's actioning transactions ASAP
He went and got a career
C-C-C-C

The sad talk becomes slow but there's one thing I'll never forget
