[Intro: Sampa] Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Yuh Time’s up, motherfucker Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock [Verse 1: Sampa, Krown] Yah It’s the return black excellence Don’t sit next to us Lay it down like scripture Jah bless God invest in us Blackface industry Lying don’t invest in me Only want the money off our backs Like history In the industry I’m not a slave on a record I rose brave, call it blessings Acute angle out the rat race I keep from going under Time ticking for families holding the spears Deception is equity used to buy your melody, all I hear [Chorus] I seen the industry Kill dreams of a dreamer Kill dreams of a dreamer Kill dreams of a dreamer Kill dreams of a dreamer I seen the industry scheme And it’s a killer I seen the industry Kill dreams of a dreamer Kill dreams of a dreamer I seen the industry scheme And it’s a killer It’s a master plan to break you I’m the scheme They the schemer [Verse 2: Sampa, Krown] Yuh Time’s up Black republic Want all my work republished How many times I inspired your rhymes Then you redubbed it We the inspiration We the motivation Take our ideas and then you resell it In variations The hour glass I’ma crack it The fatter the cream, the blacker the talent I’m taking matters in hands I’d rather challenge The industry Got no dignity Putting my fam up Next to me Searching for their diversity Nervous You know that I can see All is I see is a bunch of mechanical breakdown Do it till the planet break down On a mission to free ourselves Verbally medicated put on the shelf We not for sale neither asking for help And I ain’t asking for help We not asking for help We not for sale Not asking for help! Not out to get you Or in rage We just searching for self Go fuck yourself Fuck the game Fuck the playing Fuck the aud-ience Fuck the dance Fuck the list Fuck the ARIA’s [Chorus] Cos I’ve seen the industry Kill dreams of a dreamer Kill dreams of a dreamer Kill dreams of a dreamer And I’ve seen the industry scheme And it’s a killer And I’ve seen the industry Kill the dreams of a dreamer Kill the dreams of a dreamer And I’ve seen the industry scheme And it’s a killer It’s a master plan to break you I’m the scheme And they the schemer [Refrain] Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick, Tock Tick [Outro] Time’s up, motherfucker Time’s up, motherfucker Time’s up, motherfucker Time’s up, motherfucker
