about

I used to think my full schedule had something to do with my morality because I was taught that hard workers are good people. "Knowing" this, I made sure to work harder than everyone I knew so that I, too, could be considered a good person.

I'm tired of hustle culture. "Rise and grind" can suck my @$$!!!!

lyrics

Verse:
I am sick of all the grinding
Morning greeting, phony smiling
I can't wait another year to ditch my job for my career
Making copies, clothes that do not fit
Water cooler rumours; spreadin' shit
Don't try to act like we're a family
I wouldn't be here if you weren't paying me

Chorus:
7 o'clock, just getting home (You can have it)
Late night emails on your phone (You can have it)
Your mind is on cruise from day to day (Little habits)
Late for the office job you hate ('Cause I've had it)
But your favorite position's CEO (You can have it)
Stacking it up so you’ll feel whole (You can have it)
‘Cause Rome wasn’t built in just a day, Boss Babe!

Verse 2:
Little mama pushin’ Papa
Turning pain into her power
Got a hustle and a dream
Too reliant on caffeine
Doesn’t matter how you get it,
But it’ll make you if you let it
Plastic, opulent shine
You’re superfly, but ain’tcha tired of being on the grind for your upline?

Chorus:
7 o'clock, just getting home (You can have it)
Late night emails on your phone (You can have it)
Your mind is on cruise from day to day (Little habits)
Late for the office job you hate ('Cause I've had it)
But your favorite position's CEO,000,000 (You can have it)
Digging your empire down a hole (You can have it)
But Rome didn't crumble in a day, Boss Babe!

Outro:
Boss Babe, you can have it
You can have it all
Yeah, you're always on the grind
You can have it, you can have it, you can have it
You can have it, you can have it all
You can have it, you can have it all
You can have it, babe
I don't want it, you can keep it, you can have it all, baby
You can keep it all
You can have it
You can have it all, Boss Babe!
