Middle Management Lyrics by Proper. (USA)

Part-Timer

2023

Didn’t see enough niggas playing guitar so I learned it
Loud mouth asshole without your respect so I guess I had to earn it
A lot of narrow one way bridges so you’re goddamn right I burned them
Too many people hung up on status over style so you’re goddamn right we turned them
But every time I see a tweet
Saying we should be headliners and staying in suites
I must admit it bothers me
Because I thought we were where we're supposed to be
I thought I had the credentials
But am I wasting my potential?
I could stay a D lister, a no name
Or I could write a manifesto with Noname
'Cause all our so called 'peers' have known for some time
That their whole album couldn’t fuck with one line
I want my flowers now, not one second after we call it quits
I want a fair wage without resorting to car commercials or Greatest Hits
(What hits?)
'Cause I'm uncomfortable at the thought of a million people knowing my name
I didn’t set out to do this for the fame
The goal was to create something blue collar, something that we could always sustain
More money would be nice, yeah, but I always refused to play the fucking game
Should I play? But should I play?
Wouldn't you kill to be in the same position as me?
Should I play? Should I play? What would you do if you were me?
I just don't fucking know so play that fucking instrument
'Cause fuck, what do I do?
Do I play the game or stay talking shit to you?
