k-rino - where the love at lyrics

see, we put a lot of work in this, man
so all we ask is that if you feelin’ it, show us some love

[verse 1]
i wrote this for every artist, in every city and market
especially independents who have it hardest
from the first day we started, we learned the game hands-on
every part of it, and that helped us to be the smartest
each song in our -rs-nal carefully thought, written and recorded
and with our own finances we [?]
our hopes for radio play were thwarted
and all that hard work we put forward was blatantly disregarded
i always been curious ever since i became a lyricist
why the people around you don’t take you serious
see y’all don’t understand the kind of character
it takes to jump in a van with product and cover a whole area
you hand people a flyer, they just stare at ya
‘cause all they know is what they see and hear plastered through mainstream america
but see they not the only ones i’m speaking of though
because half of the time it’s usually the people you know so

[chorus]
so where the love at? that’s all i wanna know
ain’t gotta look for it, if it’s real, it’s gonna show
the truest ride forever, fly-by-nights come and go
so never perpetrate like you rocking with me ‘cause i’ma know

[verse 2]
if i meet another liar, i’ma probably lose it
how you my number one fan and ain’t bought none of my music?
some people ask why i’m not bigger, best way to describe ‘em
is you know me and you not buyin’, you part of the problem
in the microcosm, their thoughts are all out of sorts
they have to see you blow up first to validate their support
they say they with me but i don’t believe ‘em
i seen ‘em buy plenty cds from other people then they ask me for a free one
didn’t go to my show when it was 10 at the door
but paid two fifty to see that commercial cat front row
and it’s not a issue of envy or hate to let you know
just don’t tell me that you with me unless it’s actually so
i give one thousand percent to feed you well when i murder tracks
where is the love? i’m like donny and roberta flack
but through it all, i still eat and i will not fall
and shoutout to my real supporters, i ain’t forgot y’all

[verse 3]
you wonder why a lot of good artists didn’t succeed
either he didn’t work hard or his people didn’t believe
hung around hittin’ the weed while you did all the liftin’
or they said they was with him but their actions show something different
ask ‘em for some help grinding in the streets, no luck
but tell ‘em you shootin’ a video, they all show up
gave everything he had tryna strive hard
now real talent to cats working on nine-to-five jobs
to rap or sing and do it for the world is your dream
but when your family don’t support, that’s a discouraging thing
it ain’t always bad business that causes ‘em to be gone quick
a lot of cats’ careers was k!lled by they own clique
but let me tell you artists on another note
some of y’all just too lazy to get out and promote
and you won’t even grind for yourself, homie that’s tragic
then you sit around wondering why your album went plastic, now
