Luyện nghe bài hát Tell It Like It Is

Daddy is your car on TV?
You believe it is baby, now go in the other room
It's 'bout to be some grown folks here, okay?
All

Yeah, things ain't what they seem or cracked up to be
Like all these fakin' ass rappers in this
'bout what they got and they ain't got a damn thang
How you own three cars but you don't own own name?

Get your business right, boys, the first is in session
Get a entertainment in the music profession
up your own company, trademark the name
That's gon' run ya a grand, so start savin' your change

Open a bank quick and then follow these steps
Sign yourself to yourself and start ya own checks
Hit the and start recordin' at the speed and need
Whatever your juices flowin', could be speed or weed

Get it mixed and mastered, pressed up and
Sell it to your whole hood out the trunk, ya
all the non-believers what you destined to be
And in just a couple years, you be rich like me

But I can't hold my tongue, I'ma tell it it is
This biz ain't all fun, tell it like it is
Give it to you straight, no chase, I'ma tell it it is
you straight in yo' face and I'ma tell it like it is

I can't hold my tongue, I'ma it like it is
This biz ain't all fun, I'ma tell it it is
it to you straight, no chase, I'ma tell it like it is
Look you straight in yo' face and tell it like it is

See all your favorite artists got some serious problems
And money could be the problem but can't solve 'em
Some get addicted to drugs and flat out
Some taste a little fame and go flat out

I'm 'cause those close wanna live off my fame
And that type of shit alone'll drive a insane
Not to all the vultures, the scandalous promoters
Crabs'll try to sue you, will misquote ya

Most of these label heads, they don't nothin' about ya
If you stop sellin' records, they'll act like they don't ya
It's mixin' business with pleasure, so don't play
Me and my crew argue and fight like every day

Rappers ain't above the law but our life is so
That we got a Task Force of police on our ass
All and this is really just the start of it
Hip hop, you really wanna be a of it?

I can't hold my tongue, tell it like it is
biz ain't all fun, I'ma tell it like it is
Give it to you straight, no chase, I'ma it like it is
Look you in yo' face and I'ma tell it like it is

I hold my tongue, I'ma tell it like it is
Man, biz ain't all fun, I'ma tell it like it is
I'ma give it to you straight, no chase, I'ma tell it it is
Look you straight in yo' face and I'ma it like it is

What's worse than havin' no money is it and losin' it
What's than havin' some money is grabbin' and abusin' it
We never took no money from Chingy, I was cool with him
I wish his ass well but I don't nothin' to do with him

don't own they publishin', me, I never fool with 'em
I'm down for my artists, try my best to true to 'em
'Cause my label, competition is irrelevant
Unless I'm still in competition with my

And that I'm supportin' the Hova
'Cause the shady, it needs to be 'Taken Over'
But the rule to accumulation of wealth
Is don't trust nobody but your goddamn

I can't hold my tongue, tell it like it is
Man, this biz ain't all fun, tell it like it is
I'ma it to you straight, no chase, I'ma tell it like it is
Look you straight in yo' face and I'ma it like it is

I said, I can't hold my tongue, I'ma tell it it is
This biz all fun, I'ma tell it like it is
I'ma give it to you straight, no chase, tell it like it is
Look you straight in yo' face and tell it like it is

Daddy, are you this grown folk talk?
Yeah, baby, you can come back in
Come give Daddy a kiss, you know I love you,
And I love you
