Dr. Dre - All In A Day's Work Lyrics

If you can figure out a way to wrestle that fear to push you from behind rather than to stand in front of you, that's very powerful. I always felt that I had to work harder than the next guy, just to do as well as the next guy. And to do better than the next guy, I had to just kill. And you know, to a certain extent, that's still with me in how I work, you know, I just... go in[Verse 1: Anderson .Paak]Sittin' 'bout a hundred stories up, like what the *****?And I'm just lookin' at it allI'll be right here in Los AngelesLookin' like a villain layin' lowNothin' I can do but pack it all upGoin' up, but shit, I feel the loveSpotlight on me and I'm feelin' so rare tonightActin' a fool and feelin' aliveI'm *****in' flawless like I live in a vaultOnly type of livin' I know[Bridge (Over interlude)]Only type of living IOnly type of living IOnly type of living IOnly type of living I knowOnly type of living IOnly type of living I know[Interlude: Anderson .Paak + Dr. Dre]See if it was you you would've killed yourself by nowIt takes a special kind of motha*****a to live like thisAnd they ask me how I do itMotha*****a just take a look aroundBest believe I'm in the buildin' I hear you motha*****as talkin' and all that but uhNo, no don't mention me at allYeah comin' live and directAnd I know you feelin' some type of way about it, but uhWatch your mouth, I dare your ass to say somethin'I thought it was all goodBut now you motha*****as crossed the lineKinda pissin' me offAll the fans and all the fame, and though I gave everything to this gameThey still complainNow what the ***** do y'all expect me to do?There's so much *****in' pressureThere's so much pressureAnd it's all in a day's work[Bridge 2: Marsha Ambrosius & Anderson .Paak]Work, hardWorkin' so hard24/7, 3-6-5365, hard workIt's all in a day's work[Verse 2: Dr. Dre + Anderson .Paak]My whole life all I ever thought about is grindin'Even though my surroundings only showed me crime and violenceThat was back when a rapper needed guns way more than a stylistAnd that was back when I felt like rappers was true motha*****in' ridersOr even back in the day when I was a *****in' youngster manShit I was still sayin', "***** the police"Born and raised in the belly of the beastI had a dream that we was at peaceBut I was so wrong.. so wrongY'all too wrapped up in the bullshit and biasNow reality TV is talking 'bout pulpits and choirsSome of these hoes give less than a ***** when they runnin' their life story by usIt's the worst when I'm in a hotel, like a Hilton sick and tiredSome of these housewives way too *****in' desperateThese *****es thinkin' fame firstI can't knock the hustle, shit it's all in a day's workBut that's that shit with potential to make the game worseShit it's just somethin' about that Hollywood curseThey just thirst[Hook: Anderson .Paak]Hard timesI'm on my grind, ***** the part-timeStay ready for war, I'm on the front lineI'm gettin' the feelin' like it's all mineIt's becoming the only feeling I know(Only type of livin' I)Only type of livin' I know(Only type of livin' I)Only type of livin' I know(Only type of livin' I)Only type of livin' I know(Only type of livin' I know)[Interlude]Gonna go to workWe gotta workWe gotta workLet's get back to workOn the grind, back to work[Outro: Dr. Dre]Let's workRich as *****, but, guess what, I'm back to workOverseas, back home, no time to sleep, I'm back to workSo many people that I love, they want my time but I got to workSome of my friends don't understand, shit, I got to workAlways talkin' 'bout bustin' the club but I'm like, "***** that I gotta work"If you really wanna do it like this, shit you better get back to workBack to workRight back to workGotta get back to workShit, right back to work
