I keep a lucid mind state man I'm never faded
I prefer to think clearly think clearly the liquor's overrated
Or maybe I'm just drinking all the wrong ish,
My tolerance is too high to live as they portray it
When I say they I mean mainstream media
Make a song with a message and they don't wanna see ya
And they don't wanna hear ya
And they don't wanna play ya
They try to make followers
I try to make leaders
Major labels buying souls
Artists sell they soul less than a million sold
Rappers living fake lives like they playing Fable
I'm here to entertain but not with the fan betrayal
This industry is steady moving backwards
360 deal you should call that label master
You say not a slave but you don't own your masters
I spit this so that you can shake the shackles (bow)

[chorus]
They try to give me all the fame and pay me little money
Now what's the price of keeping it 100
You know that this is
Real real, real
You know that this is
Real, real, real
Id rather that you give me all the money
And you can keep the fame
Me keeping it 100 will never change
You know that this is

I try to never sleep on opportunity.
When I stop searching for knowledge you should start writing my eulogy.
I cannot indulge in this ignorance my intellect is too high to like the tomfoolery
When I say tomfoolery I mean Plies
Algernod Washington the biggest coon alive
I'm thinking to myself man how did he signed,
How's he getting played, I respect his Grind
I don't respect his music, but i can see his acumen
Propagating ignorance through music that is sacrilege
If ever I sold Plies a beat
I'd tax him like tobacco charge a million dollar fee
This industry is steady moving backwards
Monkey see monkey do but I am not an Alpha
They try to make us slaves but I'll never call them master,
I spit this so that you can shake the shackles (bow)

[chorus]
