Cormega - Industry (Deluxe Remix) lyrics
rate meFt. Inspectah Deck, Roc Marciano, Sadat X & Lord Jamar
(Verse)
Nowadays everybody try to get on
They don't wanna put in work, they just ridin' along
Pretty hoe in the video, a few thighs and a thong
A few views on youtube, but who's buyin' the song
World star, don't give a f^&*() how yo body diverse
They'll desecrate yo mixtape so Kanye can twerk
With yo 360 deal, boy, you prolly a joke
All molly wolly profit off yo body at work
Public enemy told me don't believe the hype
I strive to be the type to fight, to lead em right
From the brainwash, same songs daily that they playn
And if you disagree with the mass, then you hatin'
When did conscience rap become corny?
Why should I let the corporates define me?
Radio, suckas neva play me
That's the hi5 at 9? That shit is crazy
(Verse 2)
I feel alone in a room full of people
My body at work, it's food for these leeches
The devil's a lie, illusion deceive you
You'll never find truth till you seek it
When you're real, they look for your weakness
When you're fake, money won' change this
They blacklisted my name in the majors
Now I'm independent, reaching new heights, thank you!
Success is in the eye of the beholder
And neva worth the price your sole cause
How does so right go so wrong?
The rules are more clear when so raw
Joint not to sleep, but I dozed off
And woke up with dark on, that's my own fault
I shoulda known betta, he's shown flaws
He has something up his sleeve and his nose, uh
(Verse 3)
Camp in the game, it's a young brother
Put the brag(?) down, put the guns up
Funny I ain't even bought much
When yo money funny, then the fun's out
Sign a deal, get your funds up
In the lab till the sun's up
Till the label give you thumbs up, put the ones up
Dumb it down, turn your drums up
But that ain't where you come from
Our role model's whole bottles
Follow, live it like there's no tomorrow
These rappers don't own sh*t, they borrow
Frontin' with the mugs, the car note(?)
Promote lust over substance
Grown man in a dress, lookin' suspect
Shawty used to run a rough neck
Thuggin'(?), black billie(?) where the love at?
(Verse 4)
Now this industry will smash you
Go right pass you
What's good today, my nigga?
How ya gon' live if it's only gettin' bigger
And the rage ring out ? but you tame that
Fall back if you got 2 ?
Cuz there is a way to get income
You work well with people? You so true?
You up on technology? The change in ecology?
You can't lose quality, cuz then you gone
Now it's f*ck the industry and all that misery
Don't bring that to me, my situation ruin
I'm still here, I found a way to keep it goin'
When you hit then continents enough
You know it for that, you know where you there at
Understand that
You can paint the picture but you gotta have somethin' with ya
And an image that fits ya
(Verse 5)
They got you feelin' like a f*ck trick
Checkin' at the devil's d*ck, duck at the level of the ?
Us pimps get rich, kept the tight situations like tight clothes
The cold night froze all assets
Lp's and gasets, CDs and mp3, free bank accounts upseas, all becuz them pimps wasn't pleased
Give you small amounts, no more than 5gs
Get down when you can't survive without cheese
Comin' live and direct from the dinner fees
Die for respect like the Genovees
Cry families, it's time we start studying degrees
Take the part of the fallacies
Pimp slapped by reality
Solicitation nomination for a salary
Conversation travels in the galaxy, like shootin' stars
Introducin' larger Mars, man is a law, understand who you are
