We the American working population
Hate the nine-to-five day-in day-out
When we'd rather be supporting ourselves
By being paid to perfect the pastimes
That we have harbored based solely on the fact
That it makes us smile if it sounds dope

from Aesop Rock – 9-5'ers Anthem Lyrics on Rap Genius

Aesop expresses the deep desire of instead of working on a nine to five, we’d rather be rapping as he’s always done in the pastimes.
