Punch the Clock
4:30 alarm, feet hit the floor
Same boots, same route, same war
Coffee black as the sky outside
Pride in my chest where the tired resides
Clock in early, that's how I was raised
Every punch of the card, another bill paid
Daddy did it, his daddy before
Now I'm teaching my son what the grind is for
Punch the clock, build the future
Every hour, every suture
Ain't no glory but there's pride
In showing up when you'd rather hide
Punch the clock, stake your claim
Working class, no shame in the game
What the Supervisor talking bout, trying to cast doubt
I Know my job but still hear him out
Union strong, brothers and sisters got my back my
Union Local 10 written on my hardhat
Break room philosophers solving the world
While our hands build it, piece by piece unfurled
Not asking for easy, just asking for fair
Overtime feeding family, that's my prayer
They see blue collar, I see gold
Every callus is a story told
We build their cities, load their ships
American made in our fingertips
Punch the clock, build the future
Every hour, every suture
Ain't no glory but there's pride
In showing up when you'd rather hide
Punch the clock, stake your claim
Working class, no shame in the game
Tomorrow I'll be here again
Same boots, same route, same gain
But this check clears and my family eats
That's the victory in these streets
