[Intro]
Yeah
It’s like this, uh
[Verse 1]
Staring at the clock
Tick-tock, it don't stop
Emails stacking up
Boss man’s pissed off
Same old, same old
Nothing new, nothing bold
Dreams lost in the fold
But I can't be sold
[Chorus]
Clock out, I need to breathe
This 9-5’s suffocating me
Can’t fake the smile, can’t feign the need
Gotta find my way, I got to leave
[Verse 2]
Break room blues, coffee’s burnt
Water cooler chatter, it don’t work
Deadlines looming, feeling cursed
Can’t find peace, this numbing hurt
[Pre-Chorus]
Mind on my goals, I wanna be free
But here I am, lost in monotony
Out the window, see the city bleed
Gotta find escape, gotta plant the seed
[Chorus]
Clock out, I need to breathe
This 9-5’s suffocating me
Can’t fake the smile, can’t feign the need
Gotta find my way, I got to leave
[Bridge]
Close my eyes, see a different scene
Where dreams are real and everything’s serene
Money ain’t enough to buy my peace
Gotta chase my passion, find my release
[Outro]
Yeah, it’s time to clock out
Find a new route, no doubt
Free my soul, let it shout
From the 9-5, I’m out, yeah

Beat not available
Song is about being fed up with work and the 9-5
