There's No Myth Or Fable About The Pimpin' At Your Label



What Goes On Under The Table, Why You Think Your Deal Is So Unstable?



Now, Whose The Macaroni, A&R's Acting Phony



Once You Make The Matrimony, Then He Start To Slackin' Don't He



Or Could It Be The President That's Being Hesitant



Playin' His Artist Like A Corner Workin' Specimen



And I Ain't Kidding You When I Say It's Political



The Way They Make A Ridicule Of Artists Can Be Pitiful



You Know Damn Well There Shouldn't Be No Company CO



Trying To Show Me About Rap That's 53 Or So



But Yet And Still They Want To Add Advice, Trying To Keep Their Status Right



When They Should Be Working Records For Gladys Knight



Who Shape Artists, Man They Catching Rape Charges



Once You Sign On The Dotted Line, They Lead You In The Blind



Then You Find, Your State Of Revenue Remains The Same



Cause You Getting Less Points Than Steve Kerr Be Getting In A Game



And Just Because It Be Too Hardcore To Judge It



They Won't Even Touch It, And Get To Frontin' On The Budget



When New Artists Come Out, I Can Foresee The Worst Outcome



Cause Everybody I Know Got Beat Their First Album



So I Took My Contract To A Lawyer So He Can Check It Out (He Don't Know)



Then I Took It To Dionne Warwick So She Can Read My Hand (She Don't Know)




Chorus



It's A Shame, When Artists Gotta Deal With Cheats



They Got Game, For Every Young Rapper They See Out On The Streets



You Sign Your Name, They Get Like Big Red On The Five Heartbeats



Now Who The Blame, When You Starvin' And Your Record Label Eats




Verse 2



Preach Brother



They Say The Truth Will Set You Free, But I See Signs Of Treachery



Go On Perpetually, Here's How They Get You G



They Use The Tricks, Just To Juice Your
