Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock (yuh)
Time's up, motherfucker
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock
Yuh, it's the return, black excellence, don't sit next to us
Lay it down I'll strip the job less got invest in this
Black face industry, lyin', don't invest in me
Only want the money off our backs like history
In the industry I'm not a slave on the record that rolls brave
Call it blessings, acute angle out the rat race
I keep from going under, time-ticker for families holdin' this
Deception, disequity, used to buy your medikil...
I've seen the industry kill dream of a dreamer
I've seen the industry kill dream of a dreamer
I've seen the industry kill dream of a dreamer
I've seen the industry's scheme and it's a killer
I've seen the industry kill dream of a dreamer
I've seen the industry kill dream of a dreamer
I've seen the industry's scheme and it's a killer
It's a master plan to break one
I'm the scheme, you're the schemer
Time's up, black, we're perfect, well all my work published
How many times I spot your rhymes and you re-dubbed it?
We the inspiration, we the motivation
Take our ideas then you be sellin' a variation
The hour glass, I'ma crack it
The fatter the queen the blacker the talon
I'm takin' matters in hands
I'd rather challenge the industry, got no dignity
But enough reminiscin' me searchin' for the diversity
All I see is a bunch of mechanical breakdowns
Doin' to the planet to break down
On a mission to free ourselves
Verbally medicated, put on the shelf
We're not for sale, need to ask him for help
And I ain't askin' for help (we not askin' for help)
We not for sale, not askin' for help
Not out to get you on my rage, we just searchin' for son'
Go fuck yourself, fuck the game, fuck the blame
Fuck the audience, fuck the dance
Fuck the list, fuck the obvious
'Cause I've seen the industry kill dream of a dreamer
'Cause I've seen the industry kill dreams and a dreamer
And I've seen the industry kill dreams of a dreamer
And I've seen the industry scheme and it's a killer
And I've seen the industry kill dream of a dreamer
And I've seen the industry kill dream of a dreamer
And I've seen the industry scheme and it's a killer
It's a master plan to break us
I'm the schemed they the schemers
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, tick
Time's up (time's up)
Time's up motherfucker (tick-tock, tick-tock)
Ha! (tick-tock, tick-tock)
Time's up motherfucker (tick-tock, tick-tock)
Time's up, time's up (tick-tock, tick-tock)
Time's up motherfucker (tick-tock, tick-tock)
Ha! (tick-tock, tick-tock)
Time's up motherfucker (tick-tock, tick-tock)
Time's up, time's up motherfucker (tick-tock, tick-tock)
Ha!
