the way
Brian Turner Lyrics

I said, fuck em all, motherfuck 'em all
I'm angry and tired of dealing with people who have wronged me

Y'all done turned a good guy into a Chuckie doll
Everyone's actions have made me feel like a monster

I would've been your friend till the end bitch
I offered my loyalty, but you didn't reciprocate

Guess there ain't no friends in this shit bidness
The music industry is cutthroat and people only look out for themselves

Just a bunch of assholes in the shit bidness
The people in the music industry are selfish and ruthless

But they won't flush me down the toilet bowl without my tissue
I won't go down quietly, I'll make sure to fight back

These bitches talk shit out the same mouth they kiss you
People are hypocritical and say negative things behind your back

These niggas kiss ass with the same mouth that dis you
People are fake and pretend to like you for their own gain

Ew, you niggas disgust me
I'm sick of the superficiality and phoniness of the music industry

And they ain't talkin' bout shit unless they discuss me
People only care about what's trendy and popular, not what's truly meaningful

Let's talk about how, I'm killin' everything I touches
I'm successful and talented, and everything I do turns to gold

Or how I walked in this game with no crutches
I achieved success through my own hard work and talent

No Diddy, No Dupri, No Dr. Dre
I didn't need the help of famous producers to make it in the music industry

No Cash Money from Baby and no rocs from Jay
I didn't need financial backing from big-name labels to succeed

And I'm still here
Despite the obstacles, I'm still standing strong

We still here
My team and I are still successful and relevant in the music industry

What does this break dude?
This success and resilience is unbreakable and unmatched

It's still here
Success and relevance in the music industry is still present

And dude talk, concernin' New York
People talk about the rap scene in New York

When I was runnin' the city you was learnin' to walk
While I was at the top of my game in New York, others were still trying to make a name for themselves

So I watched you niggas take they first steps
I witnessed the rise of others in the music industry

And I was happy for ya, daddy was clappin' for ya
I was genuinely happy for the success of others in the industry

But, wasn't for me prolly wouldnt've happened for ya
I helped others achieve success and played a role in their career

So I rest my case
My success speaks for itself

I'm a rappin' lawyer
My skill and success in the music industry is like that of a lawyer in a courtroom

That's unless you wanna talk bad bitches
Unless you want to talk about attractive women

Section full of bridezillas, that's mad bitches
My section is filled with entitled, demanding women

No words, I describe em with letters best
I can only describe these women using the alphabet

They pretty as can be, curvy as the letter 'S'
These women are physically attractive and have an 'S'-like shape

They keep it G, they sweet as T
These women are genuine and kind

Look good in the passenger seat of V
These women look attractive as they ride in luxury cars

They ride double R, smell like double C
These women ride in Rolls Royces and smell of Chanel perfume

The Bags are L.V., D, or a double G
The designer bags these women carry are from Louis Vuitton, Dior, or Gucci

Fly as hell, shades wire cell
These women are stylish and wear sunglasses on their phones

On E, sippin' P.J., high as hell
These women are drinking expensive champagne and are very drunk

And please don't even talk about swag
Don't even bring up style or fashion

I'm cool and collective
I'm calm and composed

A Fool with perspective
Although I may act foolish, I have a greater understanding of the industry and my surroundings

I'm far from being typical my respect is reciprocal
I'm unique and different, and I give respect where it's due

I already came up
I've already achieved great success

You still on the zipper pull
Others are still struggling to achieve success

And I would say my style is 5th Fab meets Brooklyn
My style is a blend of Fifth Avenue fashion and Brooklyn streetwear

I keep the hood watchin', I got the streets lookin'
I'm influential in both the hood and the streets

They watch what I do, so they know what to do
People pay attention to my actions and follow my lead

Lil money never told big money what to do
Those with less money should never give orders to those with more money

Money talks, if u speak guapanese
If you want to be a part of the money conversation, you have to speak the right language

A language better known if you gettin cheddar holmes
This money language is only spoken by those who are wealthy

If not get a loan, use that like Rosetta Stone
If you're not wealthy, you can use a loan to help you learn the language of money

And that way you can holla bout a dolla
Once you understand the language of money, you can talk about it confidently

I hear em cryin' broke, they holla like a toddler
I hear people complaining about being broke and it sounds like a childish tantrum

Come holla at yo gualla, don't holla at sovallas
Come talk to me if you need money, don't ask those who don't have it

You'll end up down under tryna holla at Koalas
If you ask the wrong people for money, you'll end up with nothing

I keep that nine on me, Ala Iguodala
I carry a gun with me for protection, like basketball player Andre Iguodala

We can get it jumpin like the drolics on Impala
We can make things exciting like the hydraulics on a Chevy Impala

I feel like Neno lettin em rock wallas off the colla
I feel powerful like Scarface's right-hand man, Neno, ordering his attack dogs to attack someone

Somebody tell me something, What the fuck happened?
I'm confused and upset about a recent event

Somebody talk to me, muthafuck rappin
I need someone to talk to me, not just about rap

They infiltrated the game, but who let in the pookies?
Undeserving and unskilled people have entered the music industry, but who is responsible?

Kingpins is snitchin' that shit is not lookey
Even the most powerful and respected figures in the industry are betraying each other

So fuck new friends unless they stay solo
I don't want to make any new friends who will eventually betray me, unless they remain true to themselves

Cause who gon' watch you back after you kill Manolo?
Who will have your back after you commit a heinous act like killing someone named Manolo?

Isn't it ironic Santana's own fella stabbed him
It's ironic that rapper Juelz Santana was stabbed by someone close to him

The king of New York die while I yellow cabbed him
While I was driving a yellow cab, the king of New York (presumably The Notorious B.I.G.) died

No Carlito's way
I won't let my life play out like the movie 'Carlito's Way'

When I spot a hater drop him like a hot potato
When I see someone who dislikes me, I cut them off quickly

You ahead, got me later
You may be successful now, but my time will come eventually

Yeah I keep it gangsta but I'm a do it my way
I maintain my tough image, but I do things on my own terms

The new day of the week is called 'My day'
Every day is now my day to be successful

So its my say, pass my K
I'm in charge and I'm passing the 'kush' (marijuana)

I'm through talkin'
I've said all I need to say
