Woke up this morning, alarm clock screamin' (screamin')
Gotta hit the grind, it's the same ol' feelin' (yeah-yeah)
But I'm so sick of bein' broke, need somethin' more (woah-oh)
Gotta break these chains and unlock the door, yeah
Workin' nine to five just to get by
But I'm tired of this slavery, it's time to fly
Gonna chase my dreams, reachin' for the sky (sky, sky, sky)
No more bein' poor, it's time to testify (yeah yeah)
I'm so sick of bein' poor, won't take it no more
Gonna hustle harder, open up new doors
Gotta break the cycle, leave it all behind
I'm chasin' dreams, gonna make 'em mine
Oooh, oooh
Feeling the fire burning within my soul (oh-oh)
Breaking the chains that held me down before
I'm stepping out, gonna take control
Livin' free, I won't be held down anymore
Gonna rise above, reach for the stars, that's for sure
No more nine to five's, no more feelin' poor (oh-oh-oh)
I'm takin' control, gonna even the score (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm so sick of bein' poor, won't take it no more
Gonna hustle harder, open up new doors
Gotta break the cycle, leave it all behind
I'm chasin' dreams, gonna make 'em mine
I'm so sick of bein' poor, won't take it no more
Gonna hustle harder, open up new doors (ooh)
Gotta break the cycle, leave it all behind
I'm chasin' dreams, gonna make 'em mine
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
Reach for the stars, that's for sure (reach for the stars)
No more nine to five's, no more feelin' poor (no more, no more)
I'm takin' control, gonna even the score
