Big Daddy Kane Veteranz Day Shame! 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 mix But cross be in their heart like a vampire stabbed with a crucifix I had the enemy in my vicinity with the false identity Of a friend to me to injure me They ride along just to guide you wrong Play like they beside you strong, and start to faking moves like olajuwon Who side you on, revealing all that low down dirty dealing I can see your skin peeling it changed like a chameleon First you believe in them, but once you disagree with them They try to get magilla repertoire and that ain't even them And all those who has betrayed, be fast to fade Cause they cast a shade, with the masquerade What's dealt, is low blows below the belt Lord have mercy, i know how julius caesar must have felt I start to think back when i was just a youth I should have listened to the words of the god born truth He said, "look out for black snakes they all up in your cypher Black snakes you can't see therefore they sneak up and they bite ya'" They get to flippin' cause they think you slippin' So remember, don't get to slippin' cause they get to flippin' And trippin', what's that you grippin', beside your hippin' You think my heart is skippin', go save that game for scottie pippen Chorus It's a shame, to see how far left people be going They got game, to think that all this time you said you know them It ain't the same, aah, so now you see the way they flowin' Now who they blame, ain't nothing but a wolf in sheep's clothing Verse 3 Now, wait a minute, i'm starting to see lotsa, hip-hop imposters Is rap a category at the oscars? Too much nino brown up in your life Cause since then, man i done seen wesley snipes playin' a drag queen But yet and still you want to mimic the stars of cinema Pretending huh? so full of it they need an enema Cause see dig, they all like to talk big But then they want to renege, when there's a curling iron in their wig You talking loud and saying nothing, what's the world becoming? The frontin', now pay attention you may learn something Now, i ain't knocking you, but come on let's be logical You know that it's impossible to stop the unstoppable I would suggest that they, go back and check my resume Cause tunes that i made yesterday, can hang out with the best today Peace to easy mo, cause he makes the beats to flow And i grab the microphone and flip it like pizza dough Chorus Shame Now who the blame I need to be the mayor, so i can change the things around here I need to be the governor, i need to be the governor |
