Pricks - JME

Used to think my style didn’t fit 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Lost motivation to spit 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Used to care about views and clicks 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Bare industry politics 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Don’t ask me for no clean version of my riddim

You can’t ask Denzel for a clean version of Training Day

Take what you’re given

There ain’t no clean version of The Equalizer

There ain’t no clean Taking of Pelham

There ain’t no clean version of Michelangelo’s artwork with a penis hidden

I got no record deal, never had one

Got no manager, never had one

Got no stylist, never had one

Got no publisher, never had one

Got no P. A, never had one

Got no P. R, never had one

Ain’t nobody tellin' me nuttin' about my career

From they never had one

Fam, I got man tryna tell me about mix

About mix?

Fuckin' pricks

Put 'em on the decks, they can’t mix

CDJs, they can’t mix

Studio desk, they can’t mix

Don’t tell me nuttin' about mix

Man think they’re big, Quincy Jones out here, fam

'Til they catch 2 licks

Yo, is it me, or is everyone just havin' bare meetings?

Bare coffee drinkin' and eating

Dead vibes

I ain’t reachin'

You man are tryna make boardroom bangers on conference call-out speakers

Sorry fam, but my calendar don’t rate meetings

Don’t catch feelings

Not gonna lie, I know where I’m heading

Not gonna lie, the music’s spreadin'

Not gonna lie, so you man are breddin'

Not gonna lie

All these 10 man CC’d emails do my head in

Not gonna lie

Only time I pose with a contract was on my wedding

Not gonna lie

Fucking industry pricks

It’s their job to gas you up quick

Anything happens to you right now, none of these man here are gonna give 2 shits

My advice for the yutes out there right now, MC’ing in the bits

Jump on the mic and make them hits

Stop listening to all these pricks

The route that Jme took was different to the route that Jaykae took

And that was different to the route that P Money took

And that was different to the route that AJ took

And that’s different to the route that you’re gonna take

The blueprint is to carve your own way

Us man opened doors, but once you get through

You have to solve the maze, serious

Used to think my style didn’t fit 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Lost motivation to spit 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Used to care about views and clicks 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Bare industry politics 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Used to think my style didn’t fit 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Lost motivation to spit 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Used to care about views and clicks 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Bare industry politics 'til I stopped listening to all these pricks

Pricks

So many pricks everywhere, fuckin' pricks

Fuckin' pricks everywhere, tryin' to rinse man

Pricks

So many pricks everywhere, fuckin' pricks

Pricks
