[Verse 1]
They tell me, "Little girl you gotta put in time"
Hear the clock's ticking, future's on the line
(Ah) Know the world's superficial
You hear it in the air
Gotta meet expectations or go nowhere
[Pre-Chorus]
Workin' all the time with no time to waste
Make people proud or be disgraced
Grinding hard to make my voice heard too
Make them care 'bout what I wanna do
[Chorus]
Work hard, play never
Get your shit together
It's your time, your conquest
Put your strength to the test
Go all night, all day
To hear them scream your name
Tore your soul at the seams
But that's the price of a dream
[Post-Chorus]
Put in that work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Put in that work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Put in that work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Put in that work, work, work, work
Work hard, play never
[Verse 2]
I got big plans, but I can't seem to make them heard
Told to be quiet, pushed down in the dirt
(Ah) Know they are super fickle
They don't see what I see
(Ah) Prize is here, gotta take it
They don't own me
[Pre-Chorus]
The hustle, the grind suffocating
Working so I thrive, give up the sleep
In secret I try, but they don't see
I have to do this, it's part of me
[Chorus]
Work hard, play never
Get your shit together
It's your time, your conquest
Put your strength to the test
Go all night, all day
To hear them scream your name
Tore your soul at the seams
But that's the price of a dream
[Post-Chorus]
Put in that work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Put in that work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Put in that work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Put in that work, work, work, work
Work hard, play never (And now)
[Bridge]
There is nothing you can say (Your dreams)
A distraction in their way (Your life)
A path that's already paved
Tore your soul at the seams
But that's the price of a dream (And now)
There is nothing you can say (Your dreams)
A distraction in their way (Your life)
A path that's already paved
Tore your soul at the seams
But that's the price of a dream
[Chorus]
Work hard, play never
Get your shit together
It's your time, your conquest
Put your strength to the test
Go all night, all day
To hear them scream your name
Tore your soul at the seams
But that's the price of a dream
[Post-Chorus]
Put in that work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Put in that work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Put in that work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Put in that work, work, work, work
Work hard, play never
[Outro]
This life is mine, don't they understand?
I'll do what I do, I'll be who I am
There's no way that they can control me
I'll do what I do, I'll be who I be
This life is mine, don't they understand?
I'll do what I do, I'll be who I am
There's no way that they can control me
I'll do what I do, I'll be who I be
This life is mine, don't they understand?
I'll do what I do, I'll be who I am
There's no way that they can control me
I'll do what I do, I'll be who I be
This life is mine, don't they understand?
I'll do what I do, I'll be who I am
There's no way that they can control me
I'll do what I do, I'll be who I be
