Hey, minimum wage can be a struggle
But also an experience to grow to the top
For some folks, minimum wage is all they got
But that's how they learn from it, you know?
That's how they grind, that's how they find themselves
But it can be tough at times, you know?
Everything in the mix coming in between 'em
Minimum wage can feel like an non-ending
But you know?, that's how we build up
That's right
Working check to check, tryna make ends meet
To eat everyday and never end up on the streets
It was tough, overtime wasn't even enough
Ramen noodles in cups was enough for me, for a buck
Bills, fees piling up on my low income
I was broke, but kept the faith to be that chosen one
To escape from this cold world like a frozen nun
Unthawing to say, "J, you're way too close to run", uh
But it was really was a demon tryna play in my mind
Til I was distracted from paying all my bills on time
And that feeling of being so left behind
Is the worst, If you're dealing with depression
Signs were telling me, I won't survive in this fucking world, from what I make
Mindset is screaming "f*ck the world", while getting paid
Time to die, cause now I want a raise
Living life at the bottom with this minimum wage
The price is too high to live life
Someone tell me why, why?
We fight, just to die in this life
We can't survive
Minimum wage, ya
Minimum wage, ya
Minimum wage, ya, ya
Minimum wage, ya
Minimum wage, ya
Minimum wage, ya, ya
Uh, I'm shell shocked from the debt like it's death defying
My peace is when I die and get to rest from trying
To keep up with the bills and the stress that's piling
Whoever says that life is the best is lying
Cause they don't know that struggling will last for life
Money'll make you rob somebody for some cash tonight
And if they hesitate, your gun will make a blast tonight
Minimum wage is all you've ever had in this sad life
Fun was irrelevant cause I had to grind
9 to 5 was where my time was spent, to earn my dimes
No matter what I've made, it's all I had at that time
But still a nigga's struggling to not be left behind
I'm feeling low like the wage that I make an hour
The ones that take from us are building banks in towers
While paying anyone to shoot from tanks, for power
This world is where the faith gets showered with hate
The price is too high to live life
Someone tell me why, why?
We fight, just to die in this life
We can't survive
Minimum wage, ya
Minimum wage, ya
Minimum wage, ya, ya
Minimum wage, ya
Minimum wage, ya
Minimum wage, ya, ya
That's minimum wage
That's the song about it
We all gotta struggle
But that's how we build up, you know?
That's how we grow, we're all human, you know?
So that's what makes us stronger, makes us wiser
Minimum wage, minimum wage
