sun rises
sun rises over me
filters through the drapes at dawn
daddy taught me
daddy taught me to believe
i could be whatever i want

i think about him when the days get lonely
when i’m a stranger in my own backyard and
people tell me i’ll amount to nothing
they’re just snakes in the garden

i go to work
every day to be worthy
the ground on which i stand
i go to work
can’t nobody can hurt me
this hammer in my hand
i go to work
some turn to the bottle
some find peace in a church
whatever gets you through the night’s all right
but in the day i go to work

sun setting
sun setting in the evening
dreaming of a day of rest

ain’t complaining
i ain’t looking for a break
just wish it wasn’t check to check

sometimes i wonder what my life was meant for
will i be grinding till the day i’m buried
i used to dream that i would climb great mountains
no time to worry

i go to work
every day to be worthy
the ground on which i stand
i go to work
can’t nobody can hurt me
this hammer in my hand
i go to work
some turn to the bottle
some find peace in the church
whatever gets you through the night’s all right
but in the day i go to work

run, run, get it all done
don’t neglect your daughter or your baby son
a man’s worth, measured by his purse
never let you rise above the goddamn dirt

i said run, run, get it all done
don’t neglect your daughter or your baby son
i said a woman’s worth, measured by her purse
never let you rise above the gods

i go to work
every day to be worthy
of the ground on which i stand
i go to work
can’t nobody can hurt me
this hammer in my hand
i go to work
some turn to the bottle
some find peace in a church
whatever gets you through the night’s all right

but in the day i go to work
