Asaiah Ziv - Ether lyrics

[Intro: Lupe Fiasco] Because you didn't sign this 360 deal, you may or - we may or may not push your record. When Beamin came out and you didn't really hear it on the radio station, that's cause they never took it to the radio station in the first place. The reason that there's a video for Beamin, is because I shot it with my own money. The only reason that it's on MTV, is because I had friends at MTV that said "Lupe, we wanna play your video on MTV". I'm, I'm at, I'm at the mercy of the powers that be. You know, who don't know if they wanna be a record company, or if they wanna be a management company, or if they wanna be a production company. And in the midst, I'm caught up in the midst of it. So you know, but anyway... [Verse 1: Asaiah Ziv] Pastor used to tell me count my blessings What I'm supposed to do when bills collecting? My credits high I owe it though Nothing I can do when I only get 100 for a show Tryna make my life first son Suicide was on my mind I almost did it twice They don't care about my life, how I really feel They just wanna see a young man struggle Came inside my bubble, everybody going pop Had to leave my deal, everybody got robbed Made a whole album, ain't even see a penny Took all of my dough before the second one dropped Pointing at my face saying I'm the bad guy Promise I ain't ever meant to make the fans cry Promise that I never wanna see my gram die Sorry if everything that I told you was a lie I moved from the Ve then I lived in the Chi Stayed on my own in the middle of the South Thank God and my bros let me sleep on the couch I was taking a train tryna learn all the routes I was having these dreams I couldn't tell you about I was stuck in my past, been making my way out Tryna better my craft, been waiting to pay out I been getting hara**ed, who let my number get out? [Hook: Asaiah Ziv] It's funny I never got payed Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage, now I guess I'm 'bout to rage Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage They lying to all of they fans Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage, now I guess I'm 'bout to rage Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage They treating me like I'm a slave Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage, now I guess I'm 'bout to rage Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage Never put me on a stage Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage, now I guess I'm 'bout to rage Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage [Verse 2: Asaiah Ziv] I been going through some things I been getting used to things A couple homies stabbed my back And used me just to mix they tapes These labels robbed me for my faith They never met my dad in face They never came to shake his hand I was only 15 They used me to build they brand I was never in control I told 'em that I questioned God They claimed they had to let 'em know A lot of friends weren't friends in a year, you gotta learn how to love yourself Missed my grandma's funeral, really wish I could have fixed and helped Found God tryna find myself Wonder if my fans think I'm going to Hell Wonder if my fam think I'm going to Hell I wonder if my dad think I'm going to Hell Cause life ain't really what it seems Now here's to tryna live my dreams But they been tryna break me down, and put me in the magazines [Hook: Asaiah Ziv] It's funny I never got payed Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage, now I guess I'm 'bout to rage Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage They lying to all of they fans Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage, now I guess I'm 'bout to rage Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage They treating my like I'm a slave Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage, now I guess I'm 'bout to rage Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage Never put me on a stage Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage, now I guess I'm 'bout to rage Now I guess I'm 'bout to rage I'm 'bout to rage [Bridge: Asaiah Ziv] All that they want is the fame When you get it then you ain't the same Most of my homies changed, most of my homies changed They said that they'll have my back They left when the pressure came Can't even pronounce my name Most of my homies changed [Outro: Asaiah Ziv] (x4) Most of my homies changed, they ain't gon' stay the same Most of my homies changed, most of my homies changed
