Masta Ace - F.A.Y. lyrics
(feat. Strick) [Verse One: Masta Ace] I'm startin' to think that my sk** is a waste Still in the race with an ice grille on my face Mad at the world, mad at you, mad at my girl Mad at my friends and anybody drivin' a Benz I really hate this n***a that delivers my mail But if I hit him they gonna send me up the river to jail I hate my neighbors, they always askin' for late night favors Hate indie labels, especially hate majors I don't give a f** no more, f** this tour f** these shows and these groupies, they all ho's Hate these rude people stayin' all in my face And hate the fact that Visa always callin' my place So all you mean creditors and magazine editors Same ones that debted us and put n***az ahead of us I'm a mad dog who sits in the dark I'm fixin' to bark watchin' 106 And Park What a mess, I guess I'm sorta stressed Turn on the radio and I get more depressed No wonder I'm kinda bitter Strick told me I should quit player hating, but f** that I'm not a quitter Had a few cats betray me, try to play me Bail and try to blame me, f** you pay me If y'all could, y'all would finish me That's why this finger here is for everybody in the industry [Chorus] When you tryin' to hustle for pay and people get in your way That's when you ready to say "f** all y'all" When the job is givin' ya hell and pay is minimum scale That's when you ready to yell "f** all y'all" When it's really starting to seem that people k**ing your dream That's when you ready to scream "f** all y'all" I'm talkin' to you, and I'm talking to you, and I'm talking to you n***a [Verse Two: Strick] Yo I'm simply trying to eat 'til my belly is fat And I rest in the Midwest where R. Kelly and Nelly be at Where my name ring bells like "Who's celly is that?" And "Yo Strick you about to blow!" yo stop telling me that Cuz at the end of the day I'm still just a nobody Cuz nobody knows me no record label chose me But Tommy Boy did and look where that got me A bad attitude and a reason not to be co*ky A huge debt, three lawyers, and two managers A bullsh** advance that didn't recoup the damages A couple of singles that wasn't really chartin' Yo Ace I got a Cherokee! "Bow Wow got an Aston Martin" That motherf**er got a mansion with a swimming pool A rec room with many games and plenty women too He prolly got his own chef and a f**in' hot tub I got a truck with four rims but yo they not dubs Speakin' of nots yo, I'm not a happy camper Not gettin' no younger, feeling like a grandpa Yo I got low self esteem Just like a n***a running in place tryin' to chase his own selfish dream And f** my girl, soon I'll be startin' to creep She's a slob and don't care if her carpet is neat She got a slick mouth and always gets smart when she speak And can't cook a lick and the b**h fart in her sleep I got a dog that don't bark and cat that don't meow Everybody else is rich and I don't f**in' see how Sometimes I wonder why even bother waking up Should just end it and give back the spot I'm takin' up [Chorus] When you tryin' to hustle for pay and people get in your way That's when you ready to say "f** all y'all" When the job is givin' ya hell and pay is minimum scale That's when you ready to yell "f** all y'all" When it's really starting to seem that people k**ing your dream That's when you ready to scream "f** all y'all" I'm talkin' to you, and I'm talking to you, and I'm talking to you n***a
