Dr Syntax, Kyza - I Need A Break lyrics

I’m not a workaholic
Never seen the purpose of it
Don’t wanna turn neurotic
While I’m trying to earn a profit
Money’s the reason people freak out
Like they’re burning chronic
We’ve all seen what greed can do
But rarely are we learning from it
Now I’m not saying we need to
Execute some men in suit's
But where’s the retribution?
Bankers act like we’re recession-proof
Still making that excessive loop
While many’ll sweat when the rent is due
Banks are bailed out while the rest of
Us are merely left to stew

I need a break! I need a break now
Before I break before I break - down
I need a break! I need a break now
Before I break, break, break, break - DOWN!

I feel like all my life is one big fight
Shit! Might as well call me Michael Tyson
And I’m tired of the mileage
And it’s driving me crazy
Trying to get? from the rhyming
In the rap game
It’s the blind leading the blind
And they’re blanking
And I’m trying to get through
But my sight is declining
Soon it’ll be time for the life?
No time for the Gandhi stance
Or the peaceful pansy chants
Label chiefs better hand me a large
Cake, that I need to eat till
Man are gagged and barf
I ain’t really asking for much
No, man want a car, and a? for the bucks
Getting charged with at the bar
With a black card
Dream over, turn off the alarm, and I’m off

I need a break! I need a break now
Before I break before I break - down
I need a break! I need a break now
Before I break, break, break, break - DOWN!

Yo! I’m trying to push myself but
Loads of factors hold me back
Trying to keep on driving but I keep
On winding up in this cul-de-sac
I know it’s not the cure for
Cancer here I only rap
Feel like screaming "Fuck the industry"
I’m lacking social tact
I’ll spare the hype, but yo
You can tell I’m rhyming
Cold as how it was when vinyl sold
It’s still not getting slightly old
Short of trying mind control or
Pleading "Someone buy my soul"
Life gets in the way
That’s why I’m forced to put my grind on hold
