The Music Industry

    Look at all the rappers that the games killed
    Record labels making billions, why can't artists even pay bills?
    You get taken advantage of if you take deals
    They're the devil, ain't no angels in the outfield
    You get you chains and a bracelet, maybe a fake grill
    You get you paid and you're famous, baby, it ain't real
    Couple milli think you made it, but the record label take it when you overdose on alcohol and pain pills

    Gimme a pen and pad, I'm gonna get in the lab
    I'm gonna kill 'em with tracks, I'ma deliver the facts
    Nobody holding me back, labels are tricking the fans
    Rappers are industry plans, everything planned

    I ain't brain dead, never signed a deal, it don't make sense
    Never let a label manipulate what I've made yet
    Invading the industry independently, I break in
    Killed the gatekeepers with a blade, leave the gate bent
    Mainstream rappers see the fame, wanna break bread
    Soul ain't for sale, never sellout tryna pay rent
    Illuminati puppets, the industry hail satan
    The devil making deals, I won't shake hands
    Independent, underrated, these other rappers all hate it
    Going viral with no label, with no manager or agent
    Call my momma, I've got commas, and the money going crazy
    And she crying, tryna tell me that she's happy for her baby, like

    Ooh ayy
    Finally got that deal, got a pen in my hand
    Ooh ayy
    Like how you tryna buy who the hell I am?

    You can keep your cash I'm not that broke, I won't sign no contract, I do me
    Y'all are cancelled, stealing people's dreams, how can you sleep?
    It's a rap pose, throwing cash in Lambos
    I'm independent 'til I'm dead, I quit the music industry

    Artists really only wanna chase dreams
    We're broke all our lives, begging labels, "Please take me"
    Tricked us into thinking, getting deals is a great thing
    Spent our whole careers tryna break free
    The fans say they love us, tryna give 'em music they need
    Label doesn't like it, that ain't mainstream
    You're looking in the mirror like, "What happened, man? This ain't me"
    I guess that I just don't see what they see

    Gimme a mic and a booth, I'm gonna die for the truth
    I'm gonna fight for the youth, I don't got nothing to lose
    Labels are hiding the proof, look, I'ma give you a clue
    Illuminati symbols are the logos major labels use

    They're calling me an industry plant, I giggle and laugh
    I'm the total opposite of what they want, I'm spitting the facts
    I make songs about the honest things you whisper to fam
    I've exposed the government, they wanna kill me for that
    I put the paedophile sex cults on infinite blast
    I leaked the industry secrets, and I did it with rap
    How dare you try to say that my intentions aren't acting
    That my vision is a pillar of their intricate plan
    No one to manage my decisions and the pending gold plaques
    No, you won't see my initials on official contracts
    Independent 'til I'm dead or I'm a very old man
    Middle finger, I'm a missile that they can't hold back, like

    Ooh ayy
    Finally got that deal, got a pen in my hand
    Ooh ayy
    Like how you tryna buy who the hell I am?

    You can keep your cash I'm not that broke, I won't sign no contract, I do me
    Y'all are cancelled, stealing people's dreams, how can you sleep?
    It's a rap pose, throwing cash in Lambos
    I'm independent 'til I'm dead, I quit the music industry

    Miss me with all of that industry talk
    Worked my whole life for the things that I have
    Why would I give you the keys to the car
    If you just gon' drive while I pay for the gas?
    I ain't gon' come to your meetings no more
    Told you already ain't giving you half
    Y'all can't wait to get your feet in the door
    Then lock me outside while you steal from my fans

    Keep your cash I'm not that broke, I won't sign no contract, I do me
    Y'all are cancelled, stealing people's dreams, how can you sleep?
    It's a rap pose, throwing cash in Lambos
    I'm independent 'til I'm dead, I quit the music industry
    Keep your cash I'm not that broke, I won't sign no contract, I do me
    Y'all are cancelled, stealing people's dreams, how can you sleep?
    It's a rap pose, throwing cash in Lambos
    I'm independent 'til I'm dead, I quit the music industry
