Yeah, I feel like I'm the only one Feel like I'm the only one
Y'all gon have to do better I can't believe what I'm seeing All this bullshit going on The industry is deceiving All the masses Pitching rappers as these independent grinds Meanwhile there's been a label right behind them the whole time Fake shit call it out You were plugged before your first song I was puttin in work You were getting worked on Yo fans are fickle Cuz your come up is a mystery My fans gon stick with me Cuz me and them got history Longer than 2 songs You don't know how to build You tried to start at the roof ah You won't be here for too long I don't fuck with crews unless you're the one who put the crew on The rest of y'all got buzz because he put you on a few songs OO umm did that strike a nerve If the shoe fits then wear it Either way I know the truth Imma share it See these rappers sign deals Labels know what they're doing They tell the rapper don't announce it So the people keep rooting
Try to keep me on the hush but I do not give a fuck This is Russ uncut ill expose you You ain't really seen shit just wait till im on Then its on gotta lot I gotta show you Why you gotta lie I'll bring it to the light Gotta expose fake shit I put in too much time
I'm comin thru exposing fake shit God can't save you Youre a boss? You gotta boss And that boss rapes you Barely pays you But you cool with it You're a soldier unaware that you're a lieutenant I gotta gripe with the media All of y'all are wanna be's Producers and rappers Down for sodomy Dick taking Cuz the industry tells you to It's fucked up I had a standard that I held you to I'll name names if you provoke me So shut your fucking mouth My platform is way bigger Than the ones that turned me down Bunch of grown men and women Talkin bout grown men and women for a livin Man you gotta be kidding Call me bitter Call me jealous Call me this Call me that This is 10 years grinding what the fuck you call that Made the beats wrote the songs sang the hooks And I mixed it Everybody's gotta switch and y'all just flipped it
Try to keep me on the hush but I do not give a fuck This is Russ uncut ill expose you You ain't really seen shit just wait till im on Then its on gotta lot I gotta show you Why you gotta lie I'll bring it to the light Gotta expose fake shit I put in too much time
You're an industry artist I'm an artist in the industry Me myself and I that's the holy fucking trinity I partnered with Columbia Partnered is the key word We split the profits 50 50 Better do your research Came in with my own fanbase Sold out tours around the world before the handshakes You see I play the game well You let the game play you You don't know your own power You think the label saved you Now subconsciously you owe them You're submissive with your actions Then you flop flop flop And you wonder what happened Couple things You dropped one song and signed a deal You have less than 10 songs out You're not real So the song became bigger than the artist People know the song but they don't know the artist Not enough songs to become their favorite artist Not enough songs to be a headline artist I could do a week long set if I performed my whole catalogue Every single song the crowds sing and rap along Fuck a summer I'm a decade rapper You're here now I'll be here a decade after I put out 11 albums Produced by Russ Mixed mastered engineered written by Russ I put out 11 albums Produced by Russ Mixed mastered engineered written by Russ
Try to keep me on the hush but I do not give a fuck This is Russ uncut ill expose you You ain't really seen shit just wait till im on Then its on gotta lot I gotta show you Why you gotta lie I'll bring it to the light Gotta expose fake shit I put in too much time
