Gotta earn your spot
Black man get on your job
Gotta earn your spot
Black man get on your job
Burning both ends of the candle has become a bad habit
Tunnel vision for the future and the plan to go and grab it
Ain't no punching in or clocking out, any pain you walk it out
Laughing at my doubts like what the hell you talkin' 'bout
I ain't come this far for me to be stoppin' now
Sacrifice too much for me to not be poppin' now
Built my future off my past, took a note from Dame Dash
I ain't working for my first name, I'm working for my last
It's 2AM right now, they upstairs, sound asleep
I'm in the basement four to five nights out the week
Cookin' out the master plan, working through the vision
I'm the captain of the ship, I dip and swerve it with precision
Nonstop, 'til we reach the dock, pull it right up to the spot
On a hundred acre lot, turn the key into the lock
Only then can I relax, sit back and take stock
Thankful for it all, what we had and what we got
The stars form a sea 
As far as our eyes can see
Kissed by moonlight at midnight 
While the children sleep
I can't close my eyes
'Cause they're fixed on the prize
Workin' all night, 'til I find 
That castle in the sky
Oh oh ohhhh! I do my best work while they're sleeping
Year round warrior, more than just a weekend
Oh oh ohhhh! I do my best work while they're resting
Blessin' it forever, I'm forever gettin' blessings
Oh oh ohhhh! I do my best work while they're sleeping
Year round warrior, more than just a weekend
Oh ohhhh!  I do my best work while they're resting
Blessin' it forever, I'm forever gettin' blessings
Win by any means the recipe, rest up when I rest in peace
Stacking bars obsessively to fortify the treasury
I ain't father y'all and you didn't birth or marry me
Apparently, ain't got the time to care 'bout how you measure me
Busy raising Queens in a world full of jesters
To do amazing things with the tools they were blessed with
Without a man approval, whether Trump or Mansa Musa
When trying to make your dream come true, must protect it
Til then, I'll be slavin' so our home remain a haven
Built this business with their mama so it's theirs for the taking
If they want it, they can get it, different plan then I'm with it
I ain't just writing lyrics, every night I'm fighting limits
Trying to push'em up, timing might be bad but it's good for us
Food for thought and bellies after nights when I was cooking up
That ain't good enough, I'm just trying to give'em freer lives
Burnin' midnight oil while they sleep at night
The stars form a sea 
As far as our eyes can see
Kissed by moonlight at midnight 
While the children sleep
I can't close my eyes,
'Cause they're fixed on the prize
Workin' all night, 'til I find 
That castle in the sky
Oh oh ohhhh! I do my best work while they're sleeping
Year round warrior, more than just a weekend
Oh oh ohhhh! I do my best work while they're resting
Blessin' it forever, I'm forever gettin' blessings
Oh oh ohhhh! I do my best work while they're sleeping
Year round warrior, more than just a weekend
Oh ohhhh!  I do my best work while they're resting
Blessin' it forever, I'm forever gettin' blessings
Gotta earn your spot
Black man get on your job
Gotta earn your spot
Black man get on your job
