Footsie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I put in the work all day, I put in the work all day,
Them man are doing this thing part time, no I′m doing this thing all day,
I put in the work all day, I put in the work all day,
Look, no I don't care what you think or say, I put in the work all day,
I put in the work all day, I put in the work all day,
Them man are doing this thing part time, no I′m doing this thing all day,
I put in the work all day, I put in the work all day,
Look, no I don't care what you think or say, I put in the work all day,
What? I ain't got a nine-to-five?
I do music twenty-four hours a day, it′s not nine-to-five,
I can′t hear what you are trying to say if you ain't on my vibe,
And if you′re talking of AirMax, trust me it's gotta be a nine-to-five,
I′m on this, yeah I rep for the gens no long this,
You can look in my eyes, move it and see if pain is strong this,
No, they didn't want this, but it′s been coming for time,
Enough man have written it off, but I have bells still burning for grime,
Grime, still burning for grime, and my Nike is I'm still running for grime,
Yeah, I've got a big bag of weed, dunno I′m still bunning for grime,
Them man thought that the thing was over, nah nah nah the thing is fine,
Nah nah nah the thing is grime, grime is my attitude, social attitude,
I put in the work all day, I put in the work all day,
Them man are doing this thing part time, no I′m doing this thing all day,
I put in the work all day, I put in the work all day,
Look, no I don't care what you think or say, I put in the work all day,
Wave it down, treat the game like a four in a half [...] and break it down,
Them man for the [...] turned up, but I tell a man "turn it down",
Because man will come to your dance and straight up burn it down,
Burn it, burn it,
Burn it down to the ground man, I′m straight up burn it down,
Tables turning, turn it round,
Guess who came with the pumping sound, bang this one everybody jump him round,
Yeah jump it, jump it,
And if you don't like it, like it,
You′ll have to lump it, lump it,
I put in the work all day, I put in the work all day,
Them man are doing this thing part time, no I'm doing this thing all day,
I put in the work all day, I put in the work all day,
Look, no I don′t care what you think or say, I put in the work all day,
I put in the work all day, I put in the work all day,
Them man are doing this thing part time, no I'm doing this thing all day,




I put in the work all day, I put in the work all day,
Look, no I don't care what you think or say, I put in the work all day.

What an incredibly amazing lyrical work! Having the exact same rhyme in 12 of 16 lines is not something everybody would come up with. This is next level creativity!

People are watching the apple advert and finding the track. Underground Artists are watching the advert and finding renewed motivation that success can come at any time.

I hate Apple, but this is the best thing they've done for my life. And GTAV showing me Man Don't Care by JME and Giggs. Both songs are certified bangers.
