shakin out the cobwebs
just to find somethin to say
rollin like a celeb
in my beat-up chevrolet
always thought that I would make it
stretchin' that dollar to the max
out play, out smart and out wit
keeps me fillin' in the gaps
scrapin' the bottom has a way
of creating determination
but the way the game is played
doesn't provide appreciation
being weighed, measured and wanting
leaves me cravin' satisfaction
it's hard to claim that i'm a king
when i'm a walking contradiction
so, i’ll get back to mixing phrases
a little word play couldn’t hurt
maneuver my way through the mazes
keeping my head above the dirt
