SMOKE BREAKS & OVERTIME

Clock say punch in, lungs say light it up Steel-toe boots dirty, still I’m iced as fuck Ash on the dash, blunt rolled surgical I don’t smoke for fun, I smoke ‘cause life’s uncomfortable Second shift stress got my nerves on vibrate Boss talk numbers, I’m mentally high-rate Eyes red, mind clear, paradox shit World loud as hell, weed make it all hush quick I ain’t lazy, I’m medicated discipline Every gram a bandage for the shit I’m in Bills stacked tall, pressure stay militant This plant keep me sane, yeah I’ll admit to it Break room reekin’, hoodie smell tropical Life feel boxed in, weed make it logical I don’t preach sobriety, I preach survival If smoke keep me moving, then it’s vital ⸻ HOOK I smoke a lot ‘cause the weight don’t quit Mind stay loud, I gotta mute that shit Clock still tickin’, I ain’t new to this High but I’m focused, yeah I do this shit I smoke a lot just to stay upright Another long shift, another long night Still on the grind, still built for this Roll it up, breathe deep — I exist ⸻ VERSE 2 I ain’t glorifying, I’m explaining the damage Weed don’t numb me, it manage the panic Thoughts race fast like lanes on a highway One blunt slow it down just enough my way Kids need food, lights gotta stay on Stress sit heavy like weight in my palms I don’t pop pills, I don’t sip lean Just green in the grinder, routine, clean I show up faded but I never slack Still outwork dudes who sober and cap I don’t brag, just facts in the booth Weed don’t make me weak, it make me truthful Every hit a pause button on the chaos World try crush me, I exhale and stay up I don’t hide it, I don’t fake shit I smoke weed ‘cause life stay dangerous ⸻ HOOK I smoke a lot ‘cause the weight don’t quit Mind stay loud, I gotta mute that shit Clock still tickin’, I ain’t new to this High but I’m focused, yeah I do this shit I smoke a lot just to stay upright Another long shift, another long night Still on the grind, still built for this Roll it up, breathe deep — I exist ⸻ VERSE 3 Ashtray full, lungs full, heart heavy Still clock in ‘cause my people need steady Judge me if you want, I been judged before Still standing tall at the factory door This ain’t stoner rap, this working man smoke Back bent sore but the blunt still rolled Life ain’t fair, it just is what it is I choose peace in a world that vicious I ain’t quitting, I ain’t slowing pace Just finding calm in a hostile place Weed ain’t the problem, pressure is I light up ‘cause the load relentless ⸻ OUTRO (Spoken or Half-Rapped) Still on the clock… Still in my head… Still rolling something just to make it make sense.
