I bust my ass to get a plate at the table But the price of admission doesn't come with appraisals I'm not hateful, you're fucking ungracious You only think i'm sick when it's contagious You think fame and fortune don't come with a price? You may say something mean, ya skills ain't nice I'm the type to run up on you then walk by My cover charge is on a scale, i let shit slide Everyone raps and acts so self-important Your bitch bad but the crowd hates your performance F*ck rap! I'm here to tell you what it do Ya by the book until i'm booked at venues Balancing checkbooks, booking out back doors I've paid my dues, now pay me what i've asked for What i deserve isn't what you're worth Put cash in the bag, stash it in my man purse It's THE BIZNESS... keep things to yourself It's THE BIZNESS... nobody asked for help I may be socially conscious and versatile But without connections, it's nothing personal It's THE BIZNESS... keep things to yourself It's THE BIZNESS... nobody asked for help I may be socially conscious and versatile But without connections, it's nothing personal I'm out here working as a starving artist Your flows not stupid, you just sound retarded Hip hop's dead, alive in the underground People turn up cus it's dumbed down Turn down for what? Turn over in my grave At the expense of listeners, i don't get paid I made three fucking dollars my last project I can't turn up when i'm not turning a profit Nobody splits the difference on the same bill The scene's watered down, the mainstreams distilled We want mass appeal but we're unoriginal Cus' we can't reach the crowd by stretching syllables I put in work, i'm about my craft I write rhymes, promoters write checks they can't cash What i deserve isn't what you're worth Put cash in the bag or stash it in my man purse It's THE BIZNESS... keep things to yourself It's THE BIZNESS... nobody asked for help I may be socially conscious and versatile But without connections, it's nothing personal It's THE BIZNESS... keep things to yourself It's THE BIZNESS... nobody asked for help I may be socially conscious and versatile But without connections, it's nothing personal It's THE BIZNESS... keep things to yourself It's THE BIZNESS... nobody asked for help I may be socially conscious and versatile But without connections, it's nothing personal
