Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I clock in when the gulls still yawning over cedar planks Carry boxes, stack the smiles, keep the whole thing outta sank Darting like a headless horse, I’m circling every lane Bags of toys in both my arms, taking hits from wind and rain Most of the crew gone quiet, I’m the one that keeps it moving Name on the clipboard crooked, still the whole spot keeps improving Supervisor talk slick, but he don’t see the load I’m bearing I’m the manager on the boardwalk, every shift I’m double-daring [Pre-Chorus] Knees tired, back tight, salt on my shirt I keep the line alive while they all cut first I been carrying the weight where the boards all creak If I gotta hold this place, then I’ll hold it all week [Chorus] I’m out, I’m out, I’m out past the gate I’ve been running this place, now I’m done with the weight I’m gone, I’m gone, I’m gone from the shore They can call and call my name, I won’t answer anymore I’m out, I’m out, I’m out past the gate I’ve been running this place, now I’m done with the weight [Verse 2] Morning rush, candy hands, little kids in paper crowns I’m smiling through the grind while the whole deck bounces sound Stockroom stacked to the ceiling, every shelf a little war I patch the gaps, I keep the peace, then I ask what’s it for Boss man walks by once, leaves a glance and a tiny nod I keep it all from falling down, still they act like I’m the cog But I know my worth in splinters, in receipts, in aching feet Every board beneath my boots knows I made this place complete [Pre-Chorus] Knees tired, back tight, salt on my shirt I keep the line alive while they all cut first I been carrying the weight where the boards all creak If I gotta hold this place, then I’ll hold it all week [Chorus] I’m out, I’m out, I’m out past the gate I’ve been running this place, now I’m done with the weight I’m gone, I’m gone, I’m gone from the shore They can call and call my name, I won’t answer anymore I’m out, I’m out, I’m out past the gate I’ve been running this place, now I’m done with the weight [Bridge] Tonight I peel my badge off slow Let the tide take what I used to know No more hauling everybody’s day I’m turning my face the other way [Chorus] I’m out, I’m out, I’m out past the gate I’ve been running this place, now I’m done with the weight I’m gone, I’m gone, I’m gone from the shore They can call and call my name, I won’t answer anymore I’m out, I’m out, I’m out past the gate I’ve been running this place, now I’m done with the weight [Outro] I’m in, I’m in, I’m in at the gate I’ve been running this place, now I’m done with the weight

Hard-driving blue-collar hip-hop with salty seaside percussion, slapping handclaps on the two and four, gritty upright bass, chopped organ stabs, and a rubbery boom-bap kick that leaves space for a shouted chorus; male vocals, rising intensity, worker-anthem energy, and a final lift with crowd-style gang hooks
