Nothing of Value

INTRO - NIGEL WILLIAMS
Nothing of value
They don’t think I’m worth anything

VERSE 1 - ARLO MAVERICK
See I keep asking for a raise they say it’s coming
Three years of being patient ain’t seen nothing
Economy is slow homie I get it
But the plan you got in play just ain’t effective
5 years ago
Every day my mates would get laid off
Never asked
But somehow I end up with they jobs
Paid the same amount
But doing way more work
Clearly I’m not of value from what I’ve observed NOV

CHORUS - NIGEL WILLIAMS
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of a value

VERSE 2 - ARLO MAVERICK
See I been sick all fucking week and I’m still working
My body’s aching and my head is fucking hurting
I’d take sick time but they done took that from me
And justified it as a cut back ain’t that something
Either take vacation time
Or lose a full day’s wage
On top of that my rent is due in 4 mo days
HR don’t give a fuck
As long as they get paid
Expect 12 hours from me
But I’m not your slave

CHORUS - NIGEL WILLIAMS
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of a value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V

VERSE 3 - ARLO MAVERICK
Every day question my sanity

I’d rather see a happy me

All these years and all this time

Tell myself that I’ll be fine

I dread my drive to see you
And I’m so sick of your promises
The benefits and the perks
Made me stay to through the worst
Took time but now I see you
How could it not be obvious
Promote the new, underserved
Show less respect for my work
Abuse me verbally
Thinking that inspires me
You never fight for me
But always wanna fight with me
Expect my loyalty
Where’s the reciprocity
Every day you lie to me
But I’m not waiting idly
I’ve decided B
I’ma leave before you let me go
Walk away from everything
You’ll be lucky if I leave a note

Walk away from everything
You’ll be lucky if I leave a note

CHORUS - NIGEL WILLIAMS
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of a value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
Nothing of value
N-O-V
N-O-V
