Kerry"2 Smooth" Marshall - Showbiz lyrics

[Intro: Ruslan & John Givez] I be at the shows on time No he don't You could say that's a byproduct of my white privilege At the shows on time No he don't I be smoking ciggerates I got a problem You could say that's a byproduct of my white privilege He ain't got no white privilege They expect me to be on time No they don't Cause he got black people [Verse 1: Ruslan] I showed up to the show little early ready for sound check He told me what are you doing you shouldn't be around yet Well I didn't know I'd be penalized for being punctual Why are you getting energized and acting like the people didn't come to listen Anyway where is the sub system She said what sub system Um, the one you agreed to provide So the people are feeling the vibe We don't want the show to start three hours late Not trying to make you oblige Of course we are faithful to rock But we just want to make sure that this night goes great Wait, you sure you ain't got the pay No, oh You'll but it in the mail in a week or so Ok, considering that we doing this for low pay Is it ok if we just make sure the sound man Stop freaking with the EQ And keep tweaking things that don't need to be touched Promise you we'll finish on time but please don't rush (Chorus: John Givez) Why oh why do they do me this way Tell me you want to go then tell me to stay This ain't about money no You don't even pay But, we get another show and we came to play Hands up now, get 'em up now (x3) Get 'em up (x4) Hands up now, get 'em up now (x3) Get 'em up (x4) That's love [Verse 2: John Givez] I'm 'bout to bounce the bouncer on his head Cuz he don't know I get 'em bouncing Took me for a chump instead I listen to some Led Zeppelin Before I stepped it in Beleaf Melanin yelling in my ear About the bed that he sleeping in After the show I slap him And go to my little corner Preparation is my prerogative Lint in my pockets here Cause I ain't getting paid They letting the cause of Jesus be the reason for the slavery Save it G I know that he's real and know that he's aiding me But I can smell your laziness I know that you just playing me For a little s**er with soft ways But you don't know I shoot the fade with you on off days Hakuna Matata Tell 'em I'm doing it for the love You and your partners is trying to keep up It's not enough Me and my cuddies on the rise We coming up Listen to the crowd they be yelling and showing love So why you gotta (Chorus: John Givez) Why oh why do they do me this way Tell me you want to go then tell me to stay This ain't about money no You don't even pay But, we get another show and we came to play Hands up now, get 'em up now (x3) Get 'em up (x4) Hands up now, get 'em up now (x3) Get 'em up (x4) That's love [Verse 3: Beleaf] You know we brought the vibes to the function The blackest of berries you know I had to punch in Before we even hit the stage I got people coming my way To ask me questions about Johnny They say I heard that he's your little brother I say what They say his sister is your baby mother I say nah That's my wife And I'll never love another Don't tell John I said that when she... I'm joking Ok now John is a beast yo Who you think he get it from John smoke I don't know Who you think he hid it from Who you think about the least amount Beleaf done 'bout had enough of talking 'bout John I ain't trying to pout They say Johnny this Johnny that Johnny sing Johnny rap Johnny law's not around Can you forge his autograph s**er I rap too I'm proud of him That's true But I ain't trying to listen to you I'm looking at you like (Chorus: John Givez) Why oh why do they do me this way Tell me you want to go then tell me to stay This ain't about money no You don't even pay But, we get another show and we came to play Hands up now, get 'em up now (x3) Get 'em up (x4) Hands up now, get 'em up now (x3) Get 'em up (x4) That's love [Outro: John Givez] Do you want to be from the business Talking 'bout that's your business Do you want to be with the business Stay the hell out of our business Do you want to be with the business Talking 'bout that's your business Do you want to be in the business Stay the hell out of our business
