Shawn E - Plotlines

Yeah
Where did dreams go

Aye this a dirty game man
People tryna manipulate you
Take advantage of you
Get you for everything your worth
Get in and get the fuck up out of there man

Look, said I am the epitome of rap
Not a statement for debating that is literally a fact
The whole entire industry a trap
Kind of hard to get into it with ya dignity in tact
A litany of rats from the game to the streets
They'll murder you, just to get a chain with a piece
Said On beat, they flame with the heat,
Change drums same ones came with police
This shit is an illusion a little bit confusing
The internet'll tell you that they winning when they losing
Drinking in the power that I think they been abusing
Addicted to a drug they don't consider that they using but
I see there's a disparity
Paying back ya label all that money like its charity
They ya Big Daddy, call em Kevin Gerrity
All them viral hits now you turned into a parody
Who am I to blame You and I the same
But when you got the fame it's like they euthanized ya brain
They gone paint the pictures, and you provide the frame
But i'll be living different when I utilize the game

Look, Get the money and then I gotta go
I'ma get me the money and then I gotta go
Yo, it aint sunny and there's a lot of snow
So I'ma get me the money and then I gotta go

All the pain from way back, fuck it man I ate that
Keep it down, I don't speak it now that's where the rage at
That's where all the lyrics end up on the page at
Saved that, I'ma get paid with the same rap
Exploit it fore a label gets a chance
Sign your life away but hey, they paid you in advance
The thing about the devil, they saying it's a dance
But it's not, one glance have you staying in a trance
And it's crazy, now I'm at a place
Where everything I'm talking bout is shit I gotta face
Really feel like walking out, leave without a trace
All this time rhyming and believing it's a waste
I'm sitting with executives in meetings, respectful with the greetings
Tell me that I'm special and aesthetically I'm pleasing
Really I'm getting what they meaning
Bring the homies in and start commencing with the beatings
Fuck em, they see your soul and sense it as a weakness
What they represent is an extension of the leeches
Come into your life and start compressing it to pieces
We gone get ours and they we peacing, we even

Look, Get the money and then I gotta go
I'ma get me the money and then I gotta go
Yo, it aint sunny and there's a lot of snow
So I'ma get me the money and then I gotta go
