Pay To Play by LABrownies
from the album #Deuce
(D. Hernandez, K. Katukota)
Verse 1:
I just don’t get it
I think I need a medic
how did we let get to this
to sell our records
they’re feeling copasetic, who?
the public with the message
put it on the credit
forget it if you bet it
I just don’t get it
there’s nothing left to do
but just set trip and kill the wackness
it don’t matter if you practice
if your intention is wretched
and your thinking's all backwards
on some glamour shot tactics
you thought the Internet
would save this shit
it just made it all lame and shit
fools act ___ with it
and say some shit
all the brownies want is you to
play this shit, make this hit
rate this shit, hate this shit,
like this shit, hype this kid
dislike these things, bite this bit
I don’t know, write something
cause if I’mma have to roll out
and pay to play
so are you motherfucker
so keep saying the (our) name
Chorus:
Pay To Play
(you gotta, you gotta, you gotta)
Pay To Play
(you gotta, you gotta, you gotta)
Verse 2:
emcees come up to me
and say they can rhyme
Cali bands tell me
their style is sublime
all of the time
but something totally new
the 90s is back,
I tell them, wow, that’s cool
good luck with all of that
we wanna do a little funk, rock, jazz, rap
uh_ you know, a little bit of all of that
great! but why are you playing?
on a major record label
down with the system
in the machine
talk of the town
kinda all the rage yo
well I hate to sound like a say so
but this ain’t the eighties
the internet’s shady
you can’t make dough
so just be grateful
and wait your turn
then, go on your merry way as we take some more
take more what?
take more people
out the cut, out the mix
make them stars and shit
all of it
sell a bit
see what hits
and that’s it
that’s it, that’s it
Chorus:
Bridge:
