Chilling in Lab number 8, happy to create we scavenge through crates for tracks to mutilate, hack a tune, tap

Fans be fiending for music asap.
we be fiending to play wherever you be

Psyched up...
to see you motherfuckaz hyped up...
Yo Mika, turn this Mic up... / Cause we been trapped
in the lab, getting no sun, banging on pads til fingers go numb, been rapping on tracks and bit my own tongue.
but don't worry son. (I get the job done...) If the rain is pouring (I get the job done) If I'm drunk and
falling (I get the job done) Til the early morning (I get the job done) We gon' keep on touring...
stage keeps calling... / Stuffing Tees in a case, we leaving for three days.
We'll eat junk, get drunk, speed on
the freeways, sleep, change positions on our seats when our feet ache, scream "
WAIT!...
I need to take a leak for
pete's sake".
We keep driving, driving...
Life is just a waste… We arrive to venues late and set up like we in a race.
Uh!...
I Check the mic, then I exit the stage.
I am in a strange state, I'm like a lion in a cage.
Sipping liquor in the
quiet and calm, puffing cigarettes until it's time to perform, until they shut the lights and it's on, and if the live is
the bomb, we'll probably party until five in the morn... / If the rain is pouring (I get the job done) If I'm
drunk and falling (I get the job done) Til the early morning (I get the job done) We gon' keep on
touring...
stage keeps calling... / Bonjour...
Who thought that we would be from Tours?
Where becoming
an emcee was seemingly unsure.
I was a punk y'all, dreaming was done for...
I never thought we would be on
tour, performing for people that want more, screaming out encore, fiending to fuck, beating off freaks at my
front door.
It's fucking wild...
but I love it every day.
We made our mothers proud just by having fun and getting
paid.
My homie Jean told me "love what you do", and I know he's right.
You can't become a rapper over night.
Flow and write, go to open mics, learn to control the fright and don't let noone out there own your life!...
One
day you might...
hop in a van, travel all day, dash through traffic, get trapped in parkways get to play, meet fans
and parle.
and chill at the bar for the afterparty.
We wanna hop on a plane, dash a long way, sit above the clouds,
and travel all day.
We can't wait to play, meet fans and parle...




We hope half of y'all stay for the after party / Hop
on the plane… / Sit above the clouds…

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Chill Bump's song "I Get the Job Done" describe the life of a musician trapped in a recording studio, creating music tirelessly with the help of his friend while craving for performing live. They spend long hours in Lab number 8, carefully choosing tracks and mutilating them with creative skills. They tap beats, duplicate them, and play some keys to add a groovy break, all while having a cool debate and communicating with each other. They grab the pen and pad, and come up with sick raps that they accumulate, stack, and numerate tracks, focusing on the quality over the quantity that the audience can play back.


Despite being trapped in the studio, they feel the need to get on stage and perform, to see the audience hyped up. They acknowledge that it's not an easy job, and they need to be ready for any situation. They're willing to perform even if the rain is pouring or if they are drunk and falling. They'll keep going till the early morning, touring, and performing till the stage keeps calling. However, all this touring life comes with a cost, they eat junk food, get drunk, and sleep on their seats. They drive for hours, arrive late, set up like they're in a race, and check the mic before exiting the stage, feeling like they're in a strange state.


"I Get the Job Done" is a song about the musician's journey full of dedication, hard work, passion, and obstacles. No matter the hardship, the struggles, and the exhaustion that come along, they'll keep pushing their limits to achieve success, and they love every moment of it. The song showcases their love for music and the stage, the bond they share with their friends, and the sacrifices they make to pursue their passion.

We're excited to perform for our fans and want them to enjoy and get hyped up. We spend long hours in the lab creating music but that won't stop us from performing. We'll do our best to put on a good show no matter what, even if we're tired, drunk or it's pouring rain outside.

We're going on tour and packing our merchandise. We'll have fun by eating unhealthy food and drinking alcohol while traveling. We'll also take occasional breaks when needed to stretch our legs and use the restroom.

We sometimes feel like life is a waste due to our busy schedule. We rush to venues, set up quickly, and perform on stage. We feel excited and nervous before performing. We calm our nerves by drinking liquor and smoking cigarettes. If the show is a success, we celebrate until the early morning.

We made our mothers proud just by having fun and getting paid.
We're surprised that we've come so far as rappers from Tours, where it was uncertain whether we would succeed or not. We used to be just ordinary punks, we never even dreamed of performing for a living. Our success is exciting but overwhelming, and we're proud of ourselves for making a career out of something we enjoy.


My homie Jean told me 'love what you do', and I know he's right. You can't become a rapper over night. Flow and write, go to open mics, learn to control the fright and don't let noone out there own your life!... One day you might... hop in a van, travel all day, dash through traffic, get trapped in parkways get to play, meet fans and parle. and chill at the bar for the afterparty.
Our friend Jean advised us to love what we do and take time to improve our craft. We worked hard by attending open mic events and learning to overcome our fear of performing. We should never let anyone else control our lives. All of our hard work will eventually pay off by allowing us to travel, perform and meet fans.


We wanna hop on a plane, dash a long way, sit above the clouds, and travel all day. We can't wait to play, meet fans and parle... We hope half of y'all stay for the after party / Hop on the plane… / Sit above the clouds…
We look forward to traveling by plane and experiencing new places. We're excited to perform for our fans, meet them and chat. We hope that many of them stick around for the after party.
