[Intro]
Factory lights dimming down, time to switch it up
From steel-toed boots to fresh kicks, now we living up
[Verse 1]
Clock out, locker slam, badge off, I'm gone
Eight hours of hell but now the beast moves on
Wash that grease off, cologne on, new me
From assembly line zombie to who I'm supposed to be
Mama worked doubles, taught me how to change faces
From worker bee grind to owning these spaces
Fresh fit in my backpack, like Clark Kent
Transform when that whistle blows, heaven-sent
[Chorus]
Break shift, break free
From factory slave to king of these streets
Break shift, watch me
Shed that uniform, now I'm who I wanna be
(Who I wanna be)
[Verse 2]
Five days stacking paper, two nights spending it
Supervisor's voice fades, bass line's bending it
They own my daytime grind but nights belong to me
Factory floor to dance floor, now I'm flowing free
Got that worker's back pain, but I still move clean
Different type of machine when I hit that scene
Daddy taught me well, work hard, play harder
Monday through Friday slave, weekend's a starter
[Chorus]
Break shift, break free
From factory slave to king of these streets
Break shift, watch me
Shed that uniform, now I'm who I wanna be
(Who I wanna be)
[Outro]
From production line to front line
When that shift breaks, watch me shine
No more safety vest, I'm blessed
Factory snake turned weekend's best
