[Intro: Jill Scott]

I don't want to go to work today...

[Verse 1]

I'm out of the jungle and back on dry land
Since wonderman man its clearer on where I stand
These surroundings in which I know are miserable
Won't complain tho I gotta do what I can
If I had wealth be a philantropist with grants
But it seems that labels won't pay slick lyrical
But either way I'm gonna provide the materials
Do this for moms man get her a mansion in prague
Pops lifetime ravens passes get my sister a ride
Nothing cheap neither see my family is a priority
Then give what's due the majority and minorities
Schedule them for the paperwork and appointments promptly
I'm gettin' up leavin' my tag like Marc Ecko
Blowin' diesel roun' bad chicks attitude so petrol
On the down low at the underground type shows
I spit four seasons so what the fuck I need five for

[Hook x4]

I gotta, got to gotta gotta gotta
Got to get up, got to get up
[Verse 2]

Use your sonar if I'm not on your dance floor
Gettin' up the rest lie with the coroners
New set of chicks, no fakeness thats morgue bitch
Baltimore on the man map peep the location
Ride while the town hot but the a/c cryostasis
Use to ride the metro but now I push a civic
Listen little by little my goals eliminating
Pray every night to god to strengthen me from satan
While you fucking waiting
Don't you know this what you waiting for
The wonderman n***a I been raw
You been amateur, n***a I been on
Point since '08 since me and Dlow establish residence in this state
You n***as don't know cause I'm reppin' the 410 this my area code
So I roll, talk that shit trying to get up (Ahh)
Help anybody that's trying to get up
So if you down I'm trying to help ya
Motherfuckers is mad my flow still heltah skelter
These ain't the beatles but you get crush like one
Motherfuckers mad I strike no lightning but it's exciting
Motherfuckers mad I roll the phillie titan
Fuck that you know the dutch got me hype and....

[Hook/Interude]
Welcome to Things Get Better
My life, hip-hop, everything...
What you been through, we been through too
Real shit
Bitch...
If you don't know then now you know
It's Collins from the 410
Baltimore city n***a where I was born
Motherfuckers they can't handle though
While I'm recording through Audacity
N***as talking to me like they got the audacity
