American Bloodline

(album: Self Made In America - 2022)

One time for them blue collar boys
Up before the sunrise, makin ends meet, the American bloodline
Breakin our backs makin honest pay, get the job done we'll be on our way
For them blue collar boys
Out in them wheatfields, down in them mines or pushin them windshields
Haulin round the country makin honest pay, get the job done we'll be on our way

Yo I've been bustin my ass tryna make the most of a dollar
Blue collar type fella takin after my father
Made a promise that I'll make it, that's word to my mama
I ain't slowed down yet, boy I'm just getting started
Yo I'm bigger than I ever was, smaller than I'm gonna be
Calculated more than you would ever really think
Man I got a lot goin at the same damn time
Call me Overtime cuz workin is my whole damn mind
I ain't the type to sit and wait for shit to happen on an accident
You make your way to be great by showin what your passion is
I never give up, it's a value of mine
Cause I'm a blue collar boy and we get better with time... cuz

One time for them blue collar boys
Up before the sunrise, makin ends meet, the American bloodline
Breakin our backs makin honest pay, get the job done we'll be on our way
For them blue collar boys
Out in them wheatfields, down in them mines or pushin them windshields
Haulin round the country makin honest pay, get the job done we'll be on our way

We got our nose to the grind stone, till 5 when we drive home
We're punchin the clock and tradin time for an iPhone
Our knuckles are bloody but got a fistful of money
We were raised in the dirt, we ain't afraid to get muddy
Carry on for the moment, this is for them grown men
Handlin their business without bitchin and moanin
Up in the mornin to get shit done, hit the road early gotta beat the sun
We got a whole lot of people, who need a whole lot of help
I got a whole lot of friends who been through a whole lot of hell
So we don't take it for granted, we keep livin our lives
Workin hard for the money, with all our blue collar pride

One time for them blue collar boys
Up before the sunrise, makin ends meet, the American bloodline
Breakin our backs makin honest pay, get the job done we'll be on our way
For them blue collar boys
Out in them wheatfields, down in them mines or pushin them windshields
Haulin round the country makin honest pay, get the job done we'll be on our way

One time for the blue collar boys, gettin up before dawn and never complain
Boots all muddy by the end of the shift, carry on the American way
One time for the blue collar boys, gettin up before dawn and never complain
Boots all muddy by the end of the shift, carry on the American way

One time for them blue collar boys
Up before the sunrise, makin ends meet, the American bloodline
Breakin our backs makin honest pay, get the job done we'll be on our way
For them blue collar boys
Out in them wheatfields, down in them mines or pushin them windshields
Haulin round the country makin honest pay, get the job done we'll be on our way
