Bobby Hustle, Asha D & SkillinJah - Pay Raise (Lyrics)


Uh-huh
Asha D, Bobby Hustle ‘longside Skillinjah
Yo Skilli what you say
Some a dem work 9 to 5
We work 9 to 8 (Yeah we work 9 to 8)
And do whatever it takes (well, well)
Mi look and tell dem say, Bobby
Yes bredda what’s good?
Hustle fi dem
Alright then

This one goes out to every hard worker
We get up every day more money we a search for
My bills gotta pay my mama mortgage due
Plus the light and the water and the car note too (yo)

I’ve been working overtime hours
Back to back 8 days a week
Boss man made a milli off my labor
So how is it that I can barely even eat
I want a pay raise, I want a pay raise
I want a pay raise
My bredda want a pay raise, he want a pay raise
He want a pay raise

Ski di ding ding ding ding ding
Mi seh mi nah chat for free
Dem better pay we a fee
Because if mi no get mi fee
That mean mi can’t get mi food
I need a pay raise, I ain’t got no live shows
I been cutting dub plates just to get a hot plate woah (Once more)
Dem raise mi rent and now my money is spent
I got a likkle pay check, but it won’t make a dent
I need a pay raise can’t afford to take breaks
I’m just tryna maintain day up to daybreak Lord

I been working overtime hours
Back to back 8 days a week (watch yah)
Boss man made a milli off my labor
So how is it that I can barely even eat
I want a pay raise, I want a pay raise
I want a pay raise
My coworker want a pay raise, she want a pay raise
She want a pay raise

We haffi get up stand up, get up stand up, get up stand up
Sound the alarm up
Mi stock rise and mi quality has gone up
Last year we discount, but this year we cost nuff
Boasy we bad and we ting well sauce up
Bad up the boss cuz mi nah take no bossing
A mi a mash the works and it is him who is flossing (wah do dem)
If mi nah get no raise by evening
You nah go see me at work next morning (Skillinjah)

I been working overtime hours
Back to back 8 days a week
Boss man made a milli off my labor
So how is it that I can barely even eat
I want a pay raise, I want a pay raise
I want a pay raise (cyan take no more)
My coworker want a pay raise, she want a pay raise
She want a pay raise

Yo! Everyday rise up same way
Gotta go no I can’t be late
Tooth brush and little Colgate
Quick shower no time to shave
Push start and I fly the gate
And I’m gone no I do not wait
Clocked in first yesterday
And I clocked in first again today
Last name Hustle first name Bobby
Not a lazy bone in my body
Keep on working cannot stop me
Handcart boy Giddimani
Boss man pull up in a new Ferrari
Loafers Gucci shades Versace
I’m here working in a pair of old nikes
All I wanna do is be Rich like Roddy ooh

I been working overtime hours
Back to back 8 days a week (watch yah)
Boss man made a milli off my labor
So how is it that I can barely even eat
I want a pay raise, I want a pay raise
I want a pay raise
My coworker want a pay raise, she want a pay raise
She want a pay raise (Bobby)
I been working overtime hours
Back to back 8 days a week (8 days a week)
Boss man made a milli off my labor (I wanna know!)
So how is it that I can barely even eat
I want a pay raise, I want a pay raise
I want a pay raise
My coworker want a pay raise, she want a pay raise
She want a pay raise
