​tpk - Foot in the Door lyrics

[Intro] Yo, this is TPK; I'm a rapper... Trying to make it in the game... I produce my own sh**, I master my own sh** I mix my own sh**, I record my own sh** I manage my own sh**, I promote my own sh** I am the sh** Label cats don't you dare deny me Because I'm coming for you I'm coming for the game I'm coming for everything... [Verse 1] Yo, I'm an artist trying to get my foot in the door I'm like a gamer trying to get the high score But they keep changing all the things around And now it looks like Los Angeles' Downtown I don't understand, I'm so confused I like to do my promotion old school But with SoundCloud it's like a lottery You can't win, you can't ever get lucky Then I dreamed that I pulled the lever and win like vegas Get a career, do d** and get so faded But that's just a fantasy to me How the f** can I even tell that apart from reality? That's what make me who I am, I don't give a damn I published a lot of songs, how the f** can I even stop fam? I don't even understand, the game at hand So therefore I have to keep playing man [Prelude 1] I got connections in the industry and they all know me They don't help me though but I still love them regardless They're my legends... They who inspire me to be who I'm supposed to be Yeah... Going to make in this rap game Going to get my foot in the door no matter what Yeah, do this sh** myself man [Verse 2] I get very few likes, very few plays Bandcamp hates me because my music is gay What you want my music to be sterile? Like a preset or a profile... I'm not going to do that! I'm going to keep making my sh** unique I'm going to keep making original rap until the day I'm weak And then I'm stuck in the bed, rendered dead Don't know what I got in my head, I should of been better off ted It's a dream to become, number one But when you become that, you become no fun You become stuck in your formula And you don't know what to do to become unique So what the f**, do you even know about this game? I know everything and it's so f**ing strange I ain't even been famous, I'm trying to get my foot in the door Motherf**er I'm trying to win the motherf**ing war [Prelude 2] Yo I have lots of dreams I want to achieve And I'm hoping you can achieve them for me Mr. Label Boss Really hoping you can achieve them for me Please don't let me down, I have my faith in you To reject or accept me And I won't take getting rejected easily [Verse 3] Media doesn't care about an autistic rapper They all say that I am a slacker God just give me a south by southwest stage to rock I don't care if I have to pay to represent the block See that's the problem, I'm giving away money To make people see me now isn't that funny? I'm giving them to s**ups so I'm becoming a who*e This is what I have to do to get my foot in the door It's bullsh** I know but I have to go through with it Because man, if I don't then I'm not legit And other people will pa** me by With their s**y sh** that they don't even try with I try 100% hardest, I wanna change the game But they forgoe me and it's a shame I don't understand why the f** I keep caring I'm TPK, and I have to keep sharing this info to you Because I'm pissed off!
