Working Hard, Not Smart

[Verse] Yawning in the morning Can't lift my head Another day of work I'd rather be in bed Got my pencil and my paper Gotta make a plan But my mind keeps drifting Like a sinking sand Wake up Lazy bones It's time to get it done But my motivation's low Can't be the only one I'm a master of procrastination It's an art But I'll get it done Gotta make a smart start [Verse 2] Mind is on vacation Can't find the inspiration Feeling like a robot in this dull formation My eyes are heavy My energy is drained But I know I gotta keep going Gotta break these chains [Chorus] Smart working, dull working Lifeless and routine I need a spark, a fire To break this silent screen But I'll push through the tedium Find a hidden spark In this mundane existence I'll ignite a new arc [Verse 3] Staring at the screen Numbers blur and blend Clock's ticking loudly As my patience bends Zoom calls and spreadsheets Endless monotone I'm a cog in the system Lost and all alone [Verse 4] Clock's ticking slower now Minutes turn to hours I'm a pixelated worker Lost in digital towers Notifications buzz Like a swarm of bees But my heart's on mute In this virtual freeze [Verse 5] I need a coffee break A window to the sky To escape these spreadsheets And let my dreams fly Maybe one day I'll find A purpose in this grind Beyond the screens and deadlines A spark that's undefined [Outro] Screensaver daydreams Escape through the Wi-Fi I'm a pixelated wanderer In this digital sky But maybe there's a way To break free from the code Find inspiration hidden In the ones and zeros I hold [End]
