Tidal Freestyle [Stream Of Consciousness]
So I’m the bad guy now I hear
Because I don’t go with the flow
Don’t ever go with the flow, be the flow
And I don’t need no middle man
To talk to my niggas
I understand if you don’t understand
I figure I’m Jigga that’s where we differ
I take what’s mine, you accept
What they give you, i get you
I don’t take no checks I take my respect
Pharrell even told me go with the safest bet
Jimmy Iovine offered a safety net
Google dangled around a crazy check
I feel like YouTube is the biggest culprit
Them niggas pay you a tenth of
What you supposed to get
You know niggas die for equal pay right?
You know when I work I
Ain't your slave right?
You know I ain't shucking and
Jiving and high fiving
You know this ain't back in the days right?
But I can't tell
How the way they killed Freddie Gray right
Shot down Mike Brown how they did Tray right?
Let them continue choking niggas
We gon' turn style, I ain't your token nigga
You know I came in
This game independent right?
TIDAL, my own label, same difference
Oh niggas is skeptical when
It's their own shit
You bought nine iPhones and
Steve Jobs is rich
Phil Knight worth trillions you
Still bought those kicks
Spotify is nine billion they ain't say shit
Lucy you got some 'splaining to do
The only one they hating on
Look the same as you that's cool
I know they trying to bamboozle you
Spending millions on media trying
To confuse you
I had to talk to myself, Hov you used to it
It's politics as usual
