Day Job - Kj-52, Sean Johnson

I met this dude one night right up at the door

Said kind of rude who are you what you looking for

I said nobody its the stage that I’m heading toward

I’m on in 5 its about to rain bust a pour

My name’s on the page the same on the board

Can I go in this way plus I’m on the tour

I’m kj I rhyme and plus do it for the Lord

He said not tonight and went and slammed up the door

I’m like oh no everything’s a no go

Standing in the rain my cell phone like no no

Scratching my brain like I’m stuck out my own show

Want to complain till a fan was like oh yo

And then he rolled up began to walk

Said I been listening to you since you DC talk

Can you sign all the cds that I got

Toby mac your the best man you really rock!

If I had stayed at that flower shop

I could’ve been a manager but now

What you think about that what you think about that?

Oh what am I to do… probably should’ve went right back to school

Just like momma said oh just like momma said

I should’ve never quit my day job

Sometimes I wonder what I’m rapping for

First I’m eminem now I’m mackelmore

They box you up they wanna stick you in a categore

I’m never stuck I dodge the bull like a matador

Stank eye walking in the door

Rap game Larry bird but I’m in another sport

I break ankles and I shatter boards

And build a ladder to the God that I’m rapping for

But they never ever seem to get it tho

Some say I’m Toby Mac others thought I’m Mineo

Some think I’m only wack others think I’m criminal

Stuck up in the middle like rap game little bro

Standing here feeling like a jerk

Holding a pose with a fan till my hands hurt

Cause her man can never make the cam work

While they holding up another rappers fan shirt

If I was still a traffic cop

Could be working homicide but now

What you think about that what you think about that?

I should’ve never quit my day job

Now straight off people think I’m straight odd

Cause I praise God and rapping is my day job

I’m sitting on plane waiting just to take off

Dude trying to guess what I do but he way off

First I’m a dj now I’m just a drummer

Says kj fifty two that’s a funny number

I been doing this like 20 summers

I took the diss but I reminisce kind of wonder

What if I never quit my day job?

Just pulled a 9 to 5 trying to get my cake off

Would the ones that you saved would’ve strayed off

Id rather struggle in the will of God then lay off

Hate on well you can stay that I’m Straight soft

Life is a game and I’m gunning for the playoffs

So I’m glad to say I never quit my day job

And I’ll never be ashamed or try to play God
