Description
This is a song that hits home to all of us who have struggled with those annoying bill collectors. It highlights the hardest times in our lives when we were struggling financially. Well, we are still broke, but this song talks of "Buskin:" playing our music on the corner street for loose change to make ends meet and even have a roof over our head. It's our yearning for the spotlight and a chance at stardom. I think we have an original style that meshes different styles of music.
Lyrics
"Buskin" Let's forget about our worries. The bill collector is calling, always bugging, always calling me from anonymous. This guy never calls me to say hi or how you been. It's always about you wanting your backed up lease money. Call me up at nigh and day make sure I'm home cuz that's where I'll be kicking it. Late night, working grave shift, pay the credit card man. I'm only trying to sleep, stop calling me. I'll pay you when i get this started, for reals' I got the bank sending all the letters, every single night. I'll pay you back. I'll pay your bills when my label pays me something, as for now and then I'm still working something (out) and I'll keep buskin, on the corner, trying to make that cash flow to get a bite at least, while I wait for the breeze, while I shoot the breeze Chorus: I'll be selling my CD by the liquor street, while I shoot the breeze, while I blow the breeze. I'll be selling my CD by the liquor street, while I shoot the breeze, while I blow the breeze. Buskin, all night long, trying to pay these bill collectors keep calling. I even ask my moms for money, for money. I got the band, got the fresh n famous. I got you listening to this track now but your label won't play me cuz I ain't shady. Yeah baby. I want the limousine to pick me up every time I perform. I want security, paparazzi all over me. I want this guy to stop calling me. We all got to make our money somehow. This is how fresh n famous do. Want to get that money man. You gotta work that money man....
