Boardroom War

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Clock in, they grin Clock out, still thin My check came late And the rent don't wait Same old desk Same old lies They talk about "team" While they cut the pie I gave them nights I gave them skill Now they hold my pay Like it isn't real Paper trail clean But the math ain't right You can dress it up Still a theft in a suit and tie [Pre-Chorus] I been patient I been calm Now the patience gone Now the gloves on You can hide behind glass Hide behind names But I know that look When a system plays games [Chorus] Boardroom war, boardroom war I want my pay, I want my pay Boardroom war, boardroom war You don't get rich off me today Boardroom war, boardroom war I want my pay, I want my pay (my pay) Boardroom war, boardroom war We outside, come what may [Verse 2] HR got scripts Legal got smoke Manager keeps saying "It's been noted" joke I got emails stacked Got time sheets proof Got a badge on my neck And a taste for the truth They want me quiet Want me signed and sold Want me scared to talk Want me broke and cold But I got a spine And I got a name And I know this game Ain't a game [Pre-Chorus] I been patient I been calm Now the patience gone Now the gloves on You can hide behind glass Hide behind names But I know that look When a system plays games [Chorus] Boardroom war, boardroom war I want my pay, I want my pay Boardroom war, boardroom war You don't get rich off me today Boardroom war, boardroom war I want my pay, I want my pay (my pay) Boardroom war, boardroom war We outside, come what may [Bridge] Send the cease-and-desist I'll send the receipts Try to starve me out I got heat in my teeth Union talk in the hall Feet on the tile If you built this on lies Then I'm here for a while [Chorus] Boardroom war, boardroom war I want my pay, I want my pay Boardroom war, boardroom war You don't get rich off me today Boardroom war, boardroom war I want my pay, I want my pay (my pay) Boardroom war, boardroom war We outside, come what may
