Cold Recruiter

Intro

Had to grind through the pain just to make a living

Cold hands on the steel like the work ain't finished

Every night another byte, can't let it crash

I'm more than a number, can't file me with the trash

Verse 1

Typing in the dark, code in my veins, no escape

They want me plugging in, clocking in, oh I can’t relate

Boss on the line, he don’t see my scars

They demote my value, treat me like a part

Chorus

They trying to make me starve like a computer

Machines everywhere, it’s a cold recruiter

I’m more than my work, more than the title they giving

Still fighting for respect every day that I’m livin’

Verse 2

I watch my people struggle for a check

Jobs replaced by chrome, feel the disconnect

Swipe past my feelings, they see just a role

But I’m hungry for more than what these robots stole

Pre-Chorus

Late nights stack pressure, trying not to fold

Company man got a heart made of code

Can’t feed my fam with ones and zeros, nah

Still chasing hope, still breaking these laws

Chorus

They trying to make me starve like a computer

Machines everywhere, it’s a cold recruiter

I’m more than my work, more than the title they giving

Still fighting for respect every day that I’m livin’
