Charge It To The Rap Game
Everybody wants the fortune & fame The more the things change, the more they stay the same! This industry's like a crap game Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game! This industry's like a crap game Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game! Where do I begin? When this industry set, not everybody is your friend Had to learn that shit the hard way In and out the boggie's contracts since before I was rappin' in the hallway Everyone out for money, executives out for blood If you won't keep the music permanent, then the labels will pull the plug Get it? Hard to admit when shit don't go the way you plan While everybody's on Instagram just to fighting like it is ??? Take it back to one of my first tools Fucking everything, moving, thinking groovies will never do nothing back to us Kick them out the hotel, swearing I'm hitting my final thing Lost a bunch of jewelry, from a Rolex to a diamond chain Bitch, how in the hell did I get cost slipping me while on my record niggas Talking 'bout them pimping? Maybe they've exaggerated a little bit! You know, fake till you make it One of us rapper got to talk a little shit! SongtexteYeah, I've been smashing some videos vixens, and some mattresses But brand name pussy don't feel no different on my mattresses Insecure hoes with breast jobs and butt shots blaming on us rich niggas All for shits, but what not Got against these groopies ?? till you break up and your bitch wonder where her percentage is ? While these elegant hoes are tryina play the trap game And now's the time I blame it on the rap game! Everybody wants the fortune & fame The more the things change, the more they stay the same! This industry's like a crap game Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game! This industry's like a crap game Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game! Listen, this ain't script, this is reality It takes some drugs for us to conquer this insanity Themes using our names, promoting these fake appearances Publishers overcharging, taking years for these clearances I got sued, some rappers said I stole their joint, nigga Spending half a million just to prove a fucking point, nigga We got the fans thinking rappers never lose, Gave a producer a hundred grand for a beat I never used! Damn, them false stories and being miss-coded in magazines Got a nigga wanting to go and load a couple of magazines Into your offices and shoot at the fucking staff Post that on your website, and burn that while I fucking laugh You protesters at my concerts, y'all make me sick I thought I told you I would never disrespect a bitch It's clear to see that hip-hop it's under attack, man Only because no one wants to a see a rich black man Really, they want us with no money Hangover, and missing cuts, and cutting our show money Hip-hop cops still lurking, tryina to catch us slipping And put us in the position of making some real life decisions Do we just be doing dumb shit? Empty on our gun clips, always on the run shit Lights out over us entertainment hood niggas If it's bad to be a rapper, what else is good niggas?! Everybody wants the fortune & fame The more the things change, the more they stay the same! This industry's like a crap game Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game! This industry's like a crap game, Sometimes you got to charge it to the rap game! Aus Songtexte Mania
