Airporter - Marcus D, Shing02

I’m an airporter

Make a living on the road, kinda sorta

Let the songs travel across borders

And where I hear supporters that want me

I’ll board the plane on the dime, check the sky scanner

For the last minute deals, watch for the scammers

Give your info and it’s mad spammers

Not a tinfoil but I got a tape over laptop camera

Try to hit me with the tax $ 152

I know it burns gas but I’m burning money too

Wanna visit nations with the aviation

Been around the whole world on a delegation

I ain’t left yet, huh

Packing my things on the day of

Even though I’m getting better save for

The equipment in the bag 50 kilos limit 23 lbs

And the cheapo airlines wanna charge

For extra check-in not a carry-on domestic

We the people, get what we pay for never treated equal

But I’d rather splurge on a hotel

So I’m riding coattail with a buddy pass

Walked past a kid in the first class cabin, call him Akira

Oversized chair, eyes glazed like a mirror

CGK-BKK

So I’m chillin in the air, best be on my best behavior

Aforementioned pass affords me no saviors

Basically a second-class citizen on this side of the curtain

We breathing the same air, still separated by service, it ain’t fair

It got me thinking while i’m watching these movies

Reality is not far from my two feet

All the way horizontal like the booths at the internet cafes where I stay at

That contradicts what I said earlier, but I’m thrifty with it

Quick-witted language, lugging luggage

Jetlag is always worse going eastbound

So I hit the ground running on a westbound flight

To the far east, cross the dateline losing hours

International plan switch cell towers on the fly

I kinda tripped out when the customs guy

Knew me already and smiled, wild

Such is the life of an airporter

Might as well be a teleporter

Catch me if you can runnin' through terminals and crowded halls

Never kill time, barely alive for the final call

On the rebound y’all
