with a label behind him, all great
(Ras K.): Yep
(Xzibit): modern day pimps and hoes going on

Ask EPMD, rap is out of control
Cause hip-hop plus glocks = Scott La Rock, Tupac and Smalls
I figure y'all brawl for lack of protocol
Now I'm gonna take into my own hands, like masturbation
Another 39 suicidal rap is at gate waiting to battle with Satan
Rassassination: taking heads like (ching!)
in infatuation (really)? Back up off me
Kiss my ass. Then wake up n' the coffee
See, when you're broke and unknown, your mama clown you
Your family down's you. want your own kid around you
You shit. Don't do shit
Ain't gone be shit. So its quits
Two video's later, she's on dick (Bitch)
When your selling, she "Don't Worry, Be Happy."
Bragging to her "That's just my babies daddy!"
And sadly, niggaz start acting like they don't stink
But wait: you getting cut like the cake
The music is straight Mafioso:

My BMI/ASCAP platinum placque rap
Bootleg my to japan. At Swap Meets, sell my same shit back
Long sharks break legs. We beats state to state

(Verse 2)
It's of like the label is the devil:
R&B, Pop, Gospel to Heavy
make doe pimping the ghet-to
Label mates: different in the same rat race
The production is the nigga that you learn to hate
Management is crimy. Your lawyer is your liar
And your famous but po', you set your accountants office on fire
It's like this: they you $1
For you to break even, they stack $10
When you make one dollar, your profit is Andrew Jack-son ($20)
You skinny. They got plenty. The Benjamins? you see any
They getting big cheese.
No Vaseline dope M.C.'s, "so freeze"
Call the police chief? It takes a
Here's everything you need to know about the industry,
a chief.
'Cause is doing $300,000 deals;
Blowing coke smoke up my ass, but we know crack kills.
Not many, rappers ever see a penny
But double platinum is two units. CD's cost $20.
(Too true) So a clue
Somebody make $40,000,000 and it sho' wasn't you

(Chorus 2x):

MC's get the and fame.
Brothers essex floss with a card
and it to the rappers name
But the label make all the real money
Just ask Geffrey, Barry Gordy, Russel, or Puffy (ching, ching!)
Business? You don't get you deserve. You negotiate
And everything is based on the sales you generate
But hip-hop fans buy albums, and, then again, tend to player hate
The that went Pop. But before this, I never knew
don't pay the mother fucking bills. Money do
Is you stupid? How I represent don't pay rent
The R&B ho who jock on the radio buy your CD doe.
Rap magazines be screaming they keep it
but keep it fake on the
Pulling tennis shoe and clothing advertisements. No
Like Common "I Used to H.E.R."
Now I just fuck H.E.R. with two
