Whatcha gonna do when they come for you
Work ain`t honest but it pays the bills
What we gonna do when they come for you
Gave me the life that I came to live

Do I really
Want my baby
Brother tell me what to do
I know you got to get your hustle on
So I pray
I understand the game, sometimes
And I love you strong, but

What you gonna do when they come for you
Work ain`t honest but it pays the bills
What we gonna do when they come for you
God I can`t stand life withoutcha

Now, me and baby got this situation
See brotha got this complex occupation
And it ain`t that he don`t have education
Cause I was right there at his graduation

Now, I ain`t sayin` that this life don`t work
But it`s me and baby that he hurts
Cause I tell him right
He thinks I`m wrong
But I love him strong

He gave me the life that I came to live
Gave me the song that I came to give
Pressure on me
But the seed had grown
I can`t make it on my own
Summer came around and the flowers bloomed
He became the sun
I became the moon
Precious gifts that we both received
Or could this be make believe

Whatcha gonna do when they come for you
Work ain`t honest but it pays the bills
What we gonna do when they come for you
Gave me the life that I came to live

Don`t you worry I know there`s confusion
God`s gonna see us through
Peace out to revolution
But we paid though

Don`t you worry, I know there`s confusion
The work ain`t honest but it pays the bills
Don`t you worry
Gave me the life that I came to live
Don`t you worry
The work ain`t honest but it pays the bills
Don`t you worry
