On Business People and Corporations

How y'all feelin' tonight? Thank
Y'all for coming out to this impromptu
Type important performance
Let me just say that right quick
I love the energy in
This city - this is one of my
All-time towns y'all know I stay
Out here but I came here for
The creativity more than anything
Because creativity fuels everything

I hate business people people get on
The phone with me and tell
Me ya know like, 'What kind
Of business can you do
Though? What type of business
Are you doing? What's
The numbers? How much did you sell? What's
The radio spins? How much
Shampoo can you sell
With your face on it and shit?

Remind me again why we in this shit
Can you remind me again why we in this shit?

Remind me again why we in this shit
I know it's for more than to just get rich
Since when was making music
About getting rich?
Since when was making art about getting rich?
And I know it's easy for me to say cause
Having money's not anything and
Not having it is
Remind me again why we in this shit
Remind me again why the Grammys
Couldn't suck my dick

Remind me again who's the original Superfly -
And I got love for Hov but I
Ain't fuckin' with that "Suit and Tie"

Remind me again
Remind me again why we in this shit -
Every nigga tryin' get rich
Every rapper tryin' get rich
And every rapper rap about
Fuckin' somebody else bitch

Remind me why we in this shit -
And why the Grammys can suck
My dick, suck my big, black dick

And every motherfuckin' sponsor, shit
They try to put their logos all
Over the concerts and shit
For a meet-and-greet, and you gotta meet the
Execs and their daughter
And they'll show you what
They just bought her

Remind again why we in this shit -
Real niggas don't live too long in this shit
They say either you comin' on too
Strong in this shit -
They always talkin' 'bout what I'm
Doing wrong in this shit
Well I COULD GIVE A FUCK ABOUT ANYTHING, DICK
I could give a fuck about anything dick!
Remind me why we in this shit -
I lost my motherfuckin' mama
So I could give a fuck about your comments
I promise cause we all gonna die one day
But i'mma live my life my way!
Remind me why we in this shit? Please? can
I sell a drink for you please?
So you can help me put on a better show
Please? Corporations?
Can you please support me? I swear I'm a
Nice nigga now i swear I'll put the
Pink polo back on i swear to you please
Just for three million dollars i need
It so bad i need a new pool in
My back yard so I tell all
My fans that your shit is cool and
If they believe in me they should
Also believe in you did you get the check
Yet? I have to call a business manager
- did the corporations send the check yet?
What's my public rating right now? Are
People liking me again? Enough
To get money from
The corporations - is it OK now?
They forgot about the whole
Beyonce thing right? Okay cool is it OK now?

Remind me why we in this shit -

Nigga I'mma make my music from my heart
And I live and I die by
Everything that I say and
Everything that I do
And everything that I make is what
I believe to be true
And if that shit don't make
Sense and sound like nonsense
I don't give a fuck - cause
That was my stream of conscience
And that's the way I felt at that time
And feelings was the only facts
And Racism and materialism is killing blacks
And one more thing, if I can ask -
One more thing if I can ask -
Cause in this life our life
Just moves too fast
And time is something you will never get back
What's your quality of life?
What's your quality of life?
And that's why I mean it when I say
I hope you have a good time tonight
I hope you have a good time tonight

LONDON! It's Louise Wilson's birthday
Tonight - an inspiration
Not the lead instrument I'm the
Lead instrument happy birthday to Louise who
Taught Alexander McQueen and Kanye West
Even though she doesn't want me
To put that on
My resume but I just feel sometimes like
There is no good ideas and no
Real ideas and nothing sincere
Left and everything's been so homogenized
And it's all Big Business
And there's no creativity when really
We have the ability to
Have a union Utopia if we
Just help each other
If we just use our resources and stop
Trying to compete against each other and
Beat each other and eat each other
And maybe come together and try
To teach each other and reach each other and
Maybe try to come together
And love each other love each other and
Love one another, man
The way you love your mother, man
The way you should love her, man
Y'already understand cause this is our shit
And this is our clique
Ain't nobody fresher than
My motherfuckin' clique
I said ain't nobody fresher
Than MY MOTHERFUCKIN' CLIQUE!
