Artist: Elzhi Album: Elmatic * Song: Verbal Intercourse Pt. 2 Typed by: newos_crib_is@hotmail.com * bonus track [Elzhi] Yeah, this goes out to everybody that's trying to get on Think they gon' get rich, take notes yo Through the lights, camera and action, glamor, glitters and gold Here's a warning to anybody that considers this road of riches filled with jewelry, cars and thirsty bitches Crooked contracts, the close friend who switches up on you when things go sour around y'all It's called a downfall cause it brings more showers But don't forget the rain in the spring grows flowers that causes you to rise where a king shows power And it's not easy, you got a measly one shot to be hot up in the game, then over time it got sleazy Major labels wanna judge you off your last record then design something you can sign to fuck you ass naked That can turn your fifteen minutes into last seconds Take it from somebody with a past checkered as mine I was in the group around '99 but rapping since eight, thought it was great to be finally signed But little did I know I made a huge mistake I found out the label and the manager was fake and the person that betrayed me the most was my partner Though all three would be the reason for my departure I'm thinking to myself, how you let them out-smart ya? Nobody warned me like I'm warning you, happy aren't ya? But I'ma show 'em that it was nice to know 'em or maybe I should hoe 'em and throw them in the poem Cause they think that I'm below 'em, just wait until my shit drop cause I got a drive that don't slow down for pitstops And this one goes to my aspiring artists with the fire in their eyes to reach higher and farthest in the skies, may every move you make be wise And may every mistake you can take and reprise You only get one shot It's not like you get three tries to rise like G5s and I'm out Yeah, this how it goes yo Read between the lines Make sure your paperwork's straight, get your attorneys You don't wanna be like me yo Sign a bullshit contract, fuck that Get your own For all my aspiring artists out there
