[Verse 1] Used to run a circus Coffee runs Chaos Call-ins Whole crew crowding my calendar Still we’d miss the margin Now it’s just me in this swivel chair Screens lit Tabs lined All in Triple-booked and I’m chilling Yeah Every plate still spinning [Chorus] I don’t need interns I got answers on demand Ten open projects sitting pretty in my hand Deadlines dropping I just watch ’em fall in line All this budget All this profit All this money now is mine I don’t need interns I’ve got code on my side Only thing I’m scared of is the fire in my mind Runnin’ every play and yeah it all works fine All this money All this money Hope I make it out alive [Verse 2] Inbox talking in capital letters Clients begging “can you do better?” I just smile Tell ’em “send the files” Watch the work fold under pressure Stacking wins like folders Quiet king with a laptop throne Every “urgent” gets handled From the comfort of my phone [Chorus] I don’t need interns I got answers on demand Ten open projects sitting pretty in my hand Deadlines dropping I just watch ’em fall in line All this budget All this profit All this money now is mine I don’t need interns I’ve got code on my side Only thing I’m scared of is the fire in my mind Runnin’ every play and yeah it all works fine All this money All this money Hope I make it out alive [Bridge] Yeah I cut the payroll But can I cut the pace? If I cash every check Do I overdraw my headspace? Success on the screen Dark circles under my eyes If I burn out bright Who enjoys this rise? (who?) [Chorus] I don’t need interns I got answers on demand Ten open projects sitting pretty in my hand Deadlines dropping I just watch ’em fall in line All this budget All this profit All this money now is mine I don’t need interns I’ve got code on my side Only thing I’m scared of is the fire in my mind Runnin’ every play and yeah it all works fine All this money All this money I just hope I stay alive
