Let me you a little story about the slave master Use a whip on your ass so you behave You got on your neck and the man's respect You'll work all day but you will never see a check in the field
Cotton you yield, skin peels off your back the crack of the whip, it won't heal Ya wish, you had a shield 'cause he iron So when you act up, he ya and keeps firing and it's tiring
Forget about One move and it's death you're facing White mothafuckaz got the and chain On your leg and in the form of religion on brain
say, you the devil, you say, who the devil? Some of us was house niggers, of us was rebels Some tried to get along the best could And didn't nobody use the phrase, all good, would you?
got you living like a shrew They throw you pig lips and chicken then you make a stew give us a white Jesus to appease us We talk among ourselves and hope nobody us
They had our brothers beating us, called us Plus monkeys, just junkies mistreating us The master said, "If you whip 'em, you're dead" It was fucking with his but he beat us instead and we bled
Red flowing like a flood he'd rape your mother stick her face in the mud They were ruthless! If you tried to front, you'd be Some tried to run though it seemed useless
Virginity was torn, babies was born That was white and now his skin is kind of light You think you're special, because let you oversee the carnage? But I bet you will get hung, even if you stick out your 'Cause they pull out the shank and stick it through your lung
Now 96 and white people say, forget it, it's all in the past And some regret it 'cause they think we'll set it Now my missions to get So I can raise a black family with a true And you know how that
The slave master over you Always to tell you what the fuck to do The slave master over you But ain't nothing gonna stop me and my
The slave master over you Always trying to you what the fuck to do The master watching over you But ain't nothing gonna stop me and my
This is for you trying to get signed Just a little something you should keep in The are slave masters, artists are slaves get too raunchy, they want you to behave
You get signed, you're this is great But wait you never what was at stake Creative they withhold, you sell your soul you sign on the dotted line hoping to go gold
But you'll see that, not without promotion The label'll just throw your shit out and got it You think your shit is potent but nobody buying it If they ain't heard of it, ain't nobody trying it If they ain't never of it, your record' they murder it You can complain but are not concerned a bit
'Cause when they signed you, they you'd make a hit 'Cause of who you were affiliated with and all that Frustrations, all these rules and Just so you can have your heard by the nation and be patient
'Cause by the time they a lead release, your shit is ancient You think they're your album? You're mistaken And if you flop, you get dropped, 'cause you the star You go pop, just straight up hip hop, time to get a mop 'Cause no promotion, of course sales drop
Peep the break down if tapes ten You'll probably only get to see a in the end That you cannot spend your budget gets recouped So you get cash unless your record is shoop
You better hope you get shows, which will not If you don't have a record the main attraction Even if you sell a million, you'll get 'Cause they keep your cash just in case of returns
For a while, you why rappers don't smile 'Cause to them, not an artist, you're just another file Another used to make another buck They don't give a fuck and if your shit blow up, tough
But the star both promotion and devotion From the whole fucking staff, at you, laugh The star probably don't know he the house nigger Thinking he bigger 'cause he's the, of the litter
labels think backwards They push the acts that it the least So they can get all the money they can when it's take you to a restaurant for a feast And then expect you to pick up the
That's why I give props to who is independent they make they own money, plus decide how to spend it Splendid and lets end it and don't get
The slave master watching you trying to tell you what the fuck to do The slave master over you But ain't nothing stop me and my crew
The slave master over you trying to tell you what the fuck to do The slave master watching you But nothing gonna stop me and my crew
