My heart aint calloused
But my hands are
I rest easy when I go hard
My pride aint ever hurt
By some dirty work
I don't want a safety net
Or a handout from the government
I won't take a single dime
I'm workin' overtime
Blue collar is my black tie
I get clutch when the heat's high
Carpe diem screams
There aint no guarantees
I'm burnin up the daylight
I'll give impossible a good fight
I don't have time to doubt
I'm gonna to knock it out
High pressure leads to highlights
But I aint in it for the spotlight
I'll give and give and get what's mine
I'm workin' overtime
Quit, why would I ever quit
The world doesn't owe me
I aint blamin' the system
I'm not a victim
Aint waitin' to make an excuse
Don't write me a check
Without the respect
Of knowing I'm paying my dues
Aint looking for titles in front of my name
Aint looking for someone or somethin' to blame
Aint workin' for money
I'm workin for change
I'm burnin up the daylight
I'll give impossible a good fight
I'll give and give and get what's mine
I'm workin' overtime
