how has my life changed so much
where just a short while ago i lived for poetry and such
and then act like you know
sumthin’ interrupted my flow
and suddenly i have no time
no time to reflect
no time to rewind
every minute of my time is booked
a minute ago I would have stopped and looked and said how

i’m working full time and still holding down my family
and i haven’t seen my mom in over a month
and when she calls i’m talking but i’m busy and can’t talk long
how man how
did all of this happen
she’s trying to make conversation but the minutes take too long
i gotta go and flow, can’t hear her song

me and my man
he’s working dumb long hours
comes in so late sometimes, i laugh
who are you? i ask
and i’m still up working with my sons
and i say hon, can you help with this assignment too?
he says I don’t get off at 4:30, YOU DO!
i just worked on a $580 million dollar deal
it’s after 9:00 p.m. keep it real
i want to sit down and grab the remote
like that’s all she wrote
and i say
u got jokes, cause i work all day too
reality check for you!
please, help with the math mr. Deal
before i tell you some words that keep it so real
you won’t like how you feel
****

and he does and he helps
and we work and we flow
and that’s the way she goes
cause the alarm rings and I’m back at work
doin’ my thing
****** got me mumblin’ to myself
just to stay on track
i gotta laugh
just sharing
