Cost of Living

Hello

Did you know

That financial advisors recommend that

No more than 30 percent of your income be used on rent?

Fun fact number one

The average rent in America in 2024 is 17 hundred dollars

Fun fact number two

Nobody should have to work more than 40 hours a week

And fun fact number three

In order to live comfortably

The minimum wage should be

32 dollars an hour

I'ma wear these shoes 'til the soles fall off

Finally got my mind right, now my soul's all off

I'ma pay my dues, just to pay more dues

Wait a minute, where's my dough all gone? (Hey)

It seems like penny-pinching's more than a necessity

My boss is working, but he doesn't work as hard as me

I'm not a product, I'm a person

Is it possible to exist at all without monetizing me?

'Cause every day converts to dollars

The cost to live is never down

I only make so much per hour

Then the taste will sour

By a charge in my account

On a date, I split the bill

On my meds, I split the pills

I refuse to buy new clothes unless the clothes came with a deal

You can catch me at the thrift

Got no time to pick up hoes

Only time to pick up shifts, damn

I always think about work (about work)

It never thinks about me (about me)

I'm contemplating my worth

Surely, it must be

A little more than it seems (two, three, hit it)

'Cause every day converts to dollars

The cost to live is never down

I only make so much per hour

Then the taste will sour

By a charge in my account (here we go)

Another charge in my account (one more time)

Another charge in my account (another charge)

Another charge in my account (boom)

Charge in my account (boom)

Charge in my account

Uh-oh, shit

I forgot to pay the fucking electricity bill
