Charge It to the Rap Game

[Hook]

Everybody wants the fortune and fame

The more things change , the more they stay the same

This industry is like a crack game

Sometimes you gotta charge it to the rap game

Sometimes you gotta charge it to the rap game

Sometimes you gotta charge it to the rap game

This industry is like a crap game

Sometimes you gotta charge it to the rap game

[Verse 1]

Where do I begin

Well, the industry shady not everybody is your friend

I had to learn that shit the hard way

In and out bogus contracts since before i was rapping in the hallway

Everyone out for money, executives out for blood

If you don't keep the music current then labels'll pull the plug (Get it)

Hard to admit when shit don't go the way you plan

While everybody's on Instagram just fronting like life is grand

Take it back to one of my first tours

Fuckin' everything movin' thinkin' groupies will never do nothing back to us

Kick 'em out the hotel swearing i hit my finer things

Lost a bunch of jewelry from a Rolex to a diamond chain (Bitch)

How in the hell did i get caught slippin'

Meanwhile on all my records , nigga talkin' bout he pimpin'

Maybe i exaggerated a lil bit

You know fake it till you make it every one of us rappers gotta talk a little shit

Yeah i done smashed some video vixens and some actresses

But brand name pussy don't feel no different on my matresses

Insecure hoes with breast jobs and butt shots

Blaming on us rich niggas sponsoring shit and what not

Now guys are just as big as groupies as these women is

Till you break up and a bitch wonder where her percentage is

While these regular hoes are trying to play the trap game

And now is the time i blame it on the rap game

Sometimes you gotta charge it to the rap game

Sometimes you gotta charge it to the rap game

This industry is like a crap game

Sometimes you gotta charge it to the rap game

[Verse 2]

Listen , this ain't scripted this reality

It take some drugs for us to conquer this insanity

Thieves using our name promoting these fake appearances

Publicists overcharging taking years for these clearances

I got sued some rappers said i stole their joint nigga

Spend half a million just to prove a fucking point nigga

We got the fans thinking rappers never lose

Gave a producer a hundred grand for a beat i never use (Damn)

The false stories and being misquoted in magazines

Got a nigga wanting to go and load a couple magazines

Head to your office and shoot up the whole fucking staff

Post that on your website and burn while i fucking laugh

You protesters at my concerts y'all make me sick

I thought i told y'all i would never disrespect a bitch

It's clear to see that Hip Hop's under attack man

Or is it cause that no one wants to see a rich black man

Really they want us with no money

Hungover and missing flights and cutting our show money

Hip Hop cops still lurkin' and trying to catch us slippin'

And put us in a position to make some real life decisions (Hmmm)

Or do we just be doing dumb shit

Emptying out these gun clips and always on the run shit

Lifestyles of us entertaining hood niggas

If it's bad to be a rapper what's good nigga
