Pricks

Used to think my style didn't fit
'Til I stopped listening to all these pricks
Lost motivation to spit
'Til I stopped listening to all these pricks
Used to care about views and clicks
'Til I stopped listening to all these pricks
Bare industry politics
'Til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Don't ask me for no clean version of my riddim
You can't ask Denzel for a clean version of Training Day
Take what you're given
There ain't no clean version of The Equalizer
There ain't no clean Taking of Pelham
There ain't no clean version of Michelangelo's artwork with a penis hidden
I got no record deal, never had one
Got no manager, never had one
Got no stylist, never had one
Got no publisher, never had one
Got no P.A, never had one
Got no P.R, never had one
Ain't nobody tellin' me nuttin' 'bout my career
From they never had one
Fam, I got man tryna tell me 'bout mix
About licks?
Fuckin' pricks
Put 'em on the decks, they can't mix
CDJs, they can't mix
Studio desk, they can't mix
Don't tell me nuttin' about mix
Man think they're big, Quincy Jones out here, fam
'Til they catch two licks
Yo, is it me, or is everyone just havin' bare meetings?
Bare coffee drinkin' and eating
Dead vibes
I ain't reachin'
You man are tryna make boardroom bangers on conference call-out speakers
Sorry fam, but my calendar don't rate meetings
Don't catch feelings
Not gonna lie, I know where I'm heading
Not gonna lie, the music's spreadin'
Not gonna lie, so you man are breddin'
Not gonna lie
All these ten man CC'd emails do my head in
Not gonna lie
Only time I pose with a contract was on my wedding
Not gonna lie
Fucking industry pricks
It's their job to gas you up quick
Anything happens to you right now
None of these man here are gonna give two shits
My advice for the yutes out there right now, MC'ing in the bits
Jump on the mic and make them hits
Stop listening to all these pricks
The route that JME took was different to the route that Jaykae took
And that was different to the route that P Money took
And that was different to the route that AJ took
And that's different to the route that you're gonna take
The blueprint is to carve your own way
Us man opened doors, but once you get through
You have to solve the maze, serious

Used to think my style didn't fit
'Til I stopped listening to all these pricks
Lost motivation to spit
'Til I stopped listening to all these pricks
Used to care about views and clicks
'Til I stopped listening to all these pricks
Bare industry politics
'Til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Used to think my style didn't fit
'Til I stopped listening to all these pricks
Lost motivation to spit
'Til I stopped listening to all these pricks

'Til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Fuckin' pricks
Fuckin' pricks everywhere
Tryin' to rinse man, pricks
So many pricks everywhere
Fuckin' pricks
