Good Vibes Ain’t Free

Yeah…

They say “good vibes” like it’s all smiles and lights,

But I see blood in the margins, sweat in the nights.

This ain’t postcards and fake-ass cheers,

This is grit, this is pressure, this is grown-folk years.

Second Shift Samurai Squad —

Lotus in the shadows… let’s talk.

⸻

Good vibes in the warehouse? Nah, let’s be clear,

That’s code for we tired as fuck but still persevere.

Steel toes aching, backs tight, hands cracked,

Smile on the face while the system stay stacked.

Cash App flashin’, yeah, money move fast,

But don’t forget the hours that whooped our ass.

Parlays hittin’ ‘cause luck met pain,

Every win got scars, every dollar got strain.

I seen brothers break down, still clock back in,

Bills on their neck, pride under their chin.

They say “positivity” — I say discipline,

Staying solid when the bullshit thickens.

⸻

Celebrate the wins, yeah, pour that cup,

But remember who bled when the lights stayed up.

Cash flow nice but don’t get it twisted,

Every “good vibe” was earned, not gifted.

⸻

Good vibes in the warehouse — nah, it’s survival,

We smile through the grind ‘cause we fuckin’ tribal.

Cash App dreams with reality scars,

Parlays hit, but it cost us parts.

Good vibes in the warehouse — say it again,

That’s pain in disguise turned profit and zen.

We ain’t frontin’, we just still standin’,

Second Shift Samurai — understand it.

⸻

Don’t clap for the win if you missed the work,

Missed the overtime nights, missed the mental hurt.

I seen loyalty tested for crumbs and praise,

I seen fake-ass smiles vanish in a phase.

Warehouse kings? Nah — warehouse soldiers,

Aged by stress, backs gettin’ colder.

Luck ain’t random, it just finds the ready,

While the weak stay loud and the real stay steady.

Cash App ding? That’s relief, not flex,

That’s groceries paid, that’s rent off the neck.

So fuck that “easy money” narrative lie,

This shit was built on don’t quit or die.

⸻

From sunrise burn to night shift haze,

We move through hell just to still get paid.

Good times come, but don’t rewrite truth,

The vibe is strong ‘cause the people are ruthless.

⸻

Good vibes in the warehouse — hear the tone,

That’s grown-ass pressure carried home.

Cash App dreams, yeah, still alive,

But every win came baptized in grime.

Good vibes in the warehouse — no disguise,

This is scars turned smiles, hurt turned rise.

Second Shift Samurai Squad hold rank,

Lotus Viper spit poison — no thanks needed.

⸻

So toast to the workers who never got loud,

Who kept shit moving while ignored by the crowd.

Good vibes ain’t fake — they’re forged in flame,

And we still here, bitch… remember the name.

Second Shift Samurai Squad.

Black Lotus Viper.

Poison with purpose
