Work to Do
Striking a Balance: Juggling Love and Ambition in 'Work to Do'
Lyrics
I'm taking care of business, woman can't you see
Expressing responsibility for managing personal and professional matters.
I've gotta make it for you and gotta make it for me
Highlighting the need to succeed both for oneself and for a partner.
Sometimes it seems girl I'm neglecting you
Acknowledging the feeling of not giving enough attention or time.
Well I'd love to spend more time
Expressing a desire to spend more quality time.
I got so many things to do
Being overwhelmed with numerous tasks and obligations.
Oh, I, I got work to do
Emphasizing the presence of significant tasks demanding attention.
I got work baby
Reiterating the existence of work to be done.
I got a job baby
Stating the possession of a job or responsibilities.
I got work to do
Reaffirming the commitment to work and obligations.
Said I got work to do
Restating the necessity of work and responsibilities.
Oh, I'm out here trying to make it
Striving to succeed, emphasizing effort and determination.
Woman can't you see
Reiterating the responsibility to strive for success.
It takes a lot of money to make it
Highlighting the financial demands for achieving success.
Let's talk truthfully
Encouraging honesty in acknowledging the challenges of success.
So keep your love light burnin'
Encouraging a partner to maintain hope and support.
Oh, you've gotta have a little faith
Expressing the need for faith and understanding in the relationship.
You might as well get used to me
Indicating the necessity of accepting a partner's busy schedule.
Coming home a little late
Implying occasional late returns due to work commitments.
Oh, I, I got work to do
Reiterating the presence of significant tasks demanding attention.
I got a job baby
Reaffirming the possession of a job or responsibilities.
I got work to do
Reiterating the existence of work to be done.
I got work to do
Restating the commitment to work and obligations.
I'm taking care of business woman can't you see
Expressing responsibility for managing personal and professional matters.
I gotta make it for you, I gotta make it for me
Highlighting the need to succeed both for oneself and for a partner.
Don't wanna make you feel I'm neglecting you
Avoiding making a partner feel neglected due to work commitments.
I'd love to spend more time, oh
Expressing a desire to spend more quality time.
But I got so many things to do
Being overwhelmed with numerous tasks and obligations.
Oh, I, I got work to do
Emphasizing the presence of significant tasks demanding attention.
I got work baby
Reiterating the existence of work to be done.
I got a job baby
Stating the possession of a job or responsibilities.
I got work to do, everybody's got work to do
Reaffirming the commitment to work and obligations for everyone.
Oh so much work baby, I got work
Reiterating the presence of a substantial workload.
