ransom, conway the machine & v don - mid life crisis lyrics

[verse: ransom]
congratulations, you made it to fifty years (congrats)
when many didn’t think right now that you’d still be here (facts)
but after this confession, the tension’ll fill the air
not to mention the thrill a fear
but the last decades of your life, there’s been ill affairs
you can say that we never knew enough
and while we celebrate, they laughin’, them n+ggas screwed it up
a billion dollar a year business driven to ruin us, created by a few of us
owned by those who don’t carry the same hue as us
who to trust when everybody looks to steal?
what a rapper’s delight, a sweet tooth got us rotten on sugar hill
should’ve never took the deal but hindsight is 20/20
now we streaming, they payin’ us a percent of pennies
might’ve been when jay started tidal then
the biggest artists in the world, he tried to invite ’em in
we could’ve united then, but they all got frightened when
it was time to fight to win, but fear is a spiteful sin
when j. prince, suge and irv, tried to put that license in
a union for the artists, guess this where the fight begins
why we’ve never heard it since?
somebody had the urge to think, heard ya blinked
feds came in the night and left j’s prints on the murdered ink (d+mn)
instead of owning rap, we sold some crack
got a golden plaque for my black soul and turned every soul to black
why roll the dice if you are known to cr+p
every song’s a controlled substance, who’s controllin’ that?
while these old schoolers are doin’ interviews and spreadin’ their own rumors
happy with backstage passes, they should have the main access (facts)
showing off all of their slave lashes (yes)
instead of fighting for all our freedom, they remained the rappers (d+mn)
happy with occasional tributes and a dedication
while the young n+ggas rap about spinnin’ blocks and medication
what a desecration, maybe i’ll practice better patience
but don’t stop the party for me, continue celebrating
the chaos
