[Verse 1]
Clock in
Jaw tight
Same badge
Same bite
Blue light
Burned eyes
Fake smile
Thin disguise
Boss talk
Cheap praise
Pay late
New phase
My check
So small
My soul
Their wall
[Pre-Chorus]
They want my nights, want my days
Want my blood in all these ways
I keep climbing, they move floors
Empty thanks and open doors
[Chorus]
I work, I grind, I fall apart
Company feeding on my heart
They don’t care if I break my core
Still I’m sick, still I’m stuck, still I’m wanting more
Signed my name like a silent war
Company feeding on my heart
They don’t care what I’m hurting for
Still I’m sick, still I’m stuck, still I’m wanting more
[Verse 2]
Break room
Cold air
Fridge full
Still bare
Black mold
Tile stain
Same jokes
Hide pain
They get
New wing
We get
One ring
Late pay
Short staff
“Family”
Dark laugh
[Pre-Chorus]
They count minutes, I count scars
Dream of quiet, they want stars
Every raise just feeds the chore
Every win just costs me more
[Chorus]
I work, I grind, I fall apart
Company feeding on my heart
They don’t care if I break my core
Still I’m sick, still I’m stuck, still I’m wanting more
Signed my name like a silent war
Company feeding on my heart
They don’t care what I’m hurting for
Still I’m sick, still I’m stuck, still I’m wanting more
[Bridge]
Got a drawer full of “good job” cards
Got a back full of carried yards
Got a face that they all forget
Got a hunger I can’t reset
If I quit, do I still feel chained?
If I stay, do I stay the same?
Praying one day I walk that door
Still I’m cursed, still I’m wired, still I’m wanting more
[Chorus]
I work, I grind, I fall apart
Company feeding on my heart
They don’t care if I break my core
Still I’m sick, still I’m stuck, still I’m wanting more
Signed my name like a silent war
Company feeding on my heart
They don’t care what I’m hurting for
Still I’m sick, still I’m stuck, still I’m wanting more
