[maestro]
Everyday I wake upI thank god
’cause I never had to killnever had to rob
Always had a job
The industry’s hardfull of frauds
But I never pulled a card on the boulevard
I just work hard
Ask a vet about disasteryou hafta
Be able to get a label to blast your procraster-
Nating the laughterhas to wait
After you pass the snakestay awake hobbes
That’s the breaks
You wanna make a recordcheck it
You need more than your boys around your way giving you credit
’cause you can have a spectacularvernacular
But take your contract to a lawyer to look after ya
’cause labels have mastered the
Skill of gassing yaafter yadropped the flip like a spatula
Snatch your acura
And all the b....s you wanted
Are flaunted your riches are laugh at ya
Cut you off like a daggersupport you like a laddere
Your pockets ain’t fatteryou be sadder
So you better have a better strate-gy
Can’t you see
It ain’t healthynobody could tell me it’s hell see
Takes more than a dope lp to be wealthy
Let me show you the pathyou’re going too fast
You’re choking your promotional staffain’t no knowing the half
They look and they laughand take time off
Cut ya offno loss you’re just a write off
Now you’re feeling neglected and rejected
Check itit’s all about makin’ records

Chorus x2

[maestro fresh wes]
You want to see pandemonia rip
Well you’re melodious shit
You shackle and tackle by chickspacking like appleonia(? ) six
Having the hoes on your jock
A smooth individualyour videos on yo! and the box
Collecting your propsyou think you’re getting your nots
Forgetting black man attacks man’s upsetting and sweating ya pops
Ringing the bellringing ’em hell
I’m telling them factsblack be clever you better rebel
You’re outta here like flash dance
You and your wack stance
Regroup from your advancefat chance!
You’re say that you’re only playing with your soul
You’re innovativebut they got creative control
You’re a puppet on a stringain’t got a f.... thing
You can sing so they cling’cause they know thay going to bring
Money with your rhyme but you’re def dumb and blind
Don’t waste time .......ign that dotted line

Chorus x4

[maestro fresh wes]
Now in the studioyou got the stupid flow
It doesn’t matter thoit’s who you know
You think you got it badgirls got it the harder way
Labels love to see a black woman in lingerie
What’s a broad to say when a label say we’ll make you millions
Buy clothes for your childrenyou know she hit the ceiling
They sing for mewe’ll bring you g’s
But injuries in the industrycould come instantly
I see the way they make a g a daybut what a fee to pay
Throwing and showing your t and a
You’re taking a blowyour .... you shake it to show
Is raking the doughbut they played you and make you a ho
You’re a piece of meatbetween the sheets
’nuff brothers seek to reach youto freak or so to speak
Your moms can’t believe thisher daughter showing cleavage
She’s speachlessand says oh help me sweet jesus
Exposing the punannyjust to win a grammy
But when that .... is flabbyyou goneword to daddy
Stop the degradation you’re facing
This information I’m raising to the queens of my nation
The s... can’t prolonggoes strong
And when you sing a slow song (baby keep your clothes on)
Times are hardmany hearts are broken
Some start to smokefarrakhan ain’t joking
When he said we’re being setup
So black men and women keep your head up
When you’re makin’ records

Chorus x4

Outro - farrakhan sample
the greatest musiciansthe greatest rap stars. the greatest black
Artistsare sitting here today. but I want you to knowyou’re being
