| 作词 : Carter, Jones | |
| Let me tell you a little story about the slave master. | |
| Use a whip on your ass so you behave faster. | |
| You got chains on your neck, and the | |
| Man's respect. | |
| You'll work all damn day, but you will never see a check | |
| In the field. | |
| Cotton you yield. | |
| Your skin peels off your back | |
| From the crack of the whip. | |
| It won't heal. | |
| Ya wish you had a shield 'cause he wields iron, | |
| So when you act up, he smokes ya and keeps firing. | |
| And it's tiring. | |
| Forget about recreation. | |
| One wrong move and it's death you're facing. | |
| White motha ****az got the ball and chain | |
| On your leg, and in the form of religion on your brain. | |
| They say, "You the devil." | |
| You say, "Who the devil?!?!" | |
| Some of us was house niggers. | |
| Some of us was rebels. | |
| Some tried to get along the best they could. | |
| And didn't nobody use the phrase, "It's all good!" | |
| Would you? | |
| They got you living like a shrew. | |
| They throw you pig lips and chicken gizzards. | |
| Then you make a stew. | |
| They give us a white | |
| Jesus to appease us. | |
| We talk among ourselves and hope nobody sees us. | |
| They had our brothers beating us. | |
| Called us createns plus monkeys. | |
| They just junkies mistreating us. | |
| The master said, "If you don't whip 'em, you're dead!" | |
| It was ****ing with his head, but he beat us instead. | |
| And we bled. | |
| Red blood flowing like a flood. | |
| Then he'd rape your mother. | |
| Stick her face in the mud. | |
| They were ruthless! | |
| If you tried to front, you'd be toothless. | |
| Some tried to run even though it seemed useless. | |
| Virginity was torn. | |
| Soon babies was born that was half white. | |
| And now his skin is kind of light. | |
| You think you're special, because they let you | |
| Oversee the carnage? | |
| But I bet you | |
| Will get hung, even if you stick out your tounge. ' | |
| Cause they pull out the shank and stick it right through you're lung. | |
| Now it's 96 and white people say, "Forget it. It's all in the past." | |
| And some even regret it. ' | |
| Cause they think we'll set it. | |
| Now my missions to get federal | |
| So I can raise a black family with a true devils | |
| And you know how that goes. (Chorus 2x) | |
| The slave master watching over you, | |
| Always trying to tell you what the **** to do! | |
| The slave master watching over you, | |
| But ain't nothing gonna stop me and my crew! | |
| This is for you kids trying to get signed. | |
| Just a little something you should keep in mind: | |
| The labels are slave masters. | |
| Artists are slaves. | |
| Don't get too raunchy. | |
| They want you to behave. | |
| You get signed. | |
| You're thinking, "This is great!" | |
| But wait You never knew what was at stake. | |
| Creative control they withold. | |
| You sell your soul when you sign on the dotted line hoping to go gold. | |
| But you'll never see that, not without promotion. | |
| The label'll just throw your shit out, and got it floatin'. | |
| You think your shit is potent, but ain't nobody buying it. | |
| If they ain't never heard of it, ain't nobody trying it. | |
| If they ain't never heard of it 'your record' they murder it. | |
| You can complain. | |
| But they are not concerned a bit. ' | |
| Cause when they signed you, they thought you'd make a hit 'cause of who you were affiliated with, and all that bullshit. | |
| Frustrations. | |
| All these rules and regulations | |
| Just so you can have your shit heard by the nation. | |
| And be patient. ' | |
| Cause by the time they find a lead release, your shit is ancient. | |
| You think they're working your album? | |
| You're mistaken. | |
| And if you flop, you get dropped. ' | |
| Cause you ain't the star. | |
| You didn't go pop. | |
| Just straight up hip-hop. | |
| Time to get a mop. ' | |
| Cause without no promotion, of course sales drop. | |
| Peep the break down: | |
| If tapes cost ($)10, | |
| You'll probaably only get to see a dollar in the end, | |
| That you cannot spend. | |
| Cause your budget gets recouped. | |
| So you never get cash unless your record is "Shoop." | |
| You better hope you get shows, which will not happen | |
| If you don't have a record that's the main attraction. | |
| Even if you sell a million, you'll get burned | |
| Cause they keep half your cash just in case of returns. | |
| For a while, you wonder why rappers don't smile. 'cause to them, you're not an artist. | |
| You're just another file. | |
| Another nigger used to make another buck. | |
| They don't give a ****. | |
| And if your shit don't blow up, tough. | |
| But the star gets both promotion and devotion | |
| From the whole ****ing staff. | |
| At you, they laugh. | |
| The star probably don't know that he the house nigger. | |
| Thinking he bigger cause he's the, pick of the litter. | |
| These lebels think backwards. | |
| They push the acts that need it the least | |
| So they can get all the money they can when it's released. | |
| They take you to a restarant for a feast, | |
| And then expect you to pck up the check? | |
| That's why | |
| I give props to niggaz who is independent: ' | |
| Cause they make they own money, plus decide how to spend it. | |
| Splendid.And lets end it. | |
| And don't get offended. (Chorus 2x) | |
| The slave master watching over you, | |
| Always trying to tell you what the **** to do. | |
| The slave master watching over you, | |
| But ain't nothing gonna stop me and my crew. | |
| Hieroglyphics! |
