[Intro: Marsha Ambrosius]
|
I will change the game, one day
|
Change the game... one day
|
|
[Saigon]
|
I got signed to Atlantic Records, 2004
|
They predicted I'd do a million right out of the door
|
They said all I had to do was just follow the for-mula
|
"You does and you gon' be popular boy"
|
See what they failed to realize is I rhyme for the cause
|
They got the same mindframe as [?]
|
Told me they needed a single, who should they call?
|
I said "Y'all should put me in the stu' with Trey Songz"
|
Now all along they thinkin we do a song how we bang the girls
|
I said "Nah lil' nigga, we 'bout to change the world"
|
And when I turned it in expectin a grin
|
They gave a nigga this look like "Never again"
|
And I looked back at them like "Never again"
|
I love all of you motherfuckers but, just as some friends
|
I can't do music if it ain't got a message within
|
I guess y'all could leave that up to the rest of them then
|
I'm changin the game
|
|
[Chorus: Marsha Ambrosius (Saigon)]
|
I daydream 'bout money and fame (so silly)
|
I will change the game, one day
|
It's just a silly game
|
When everybody knows my name (oh really?)
|
I will change the game, one day
|
Change the game, change the game
|
|
[Marsha] Change the game
|
|
[Saigon]
|
Okay, so now I got the Bentley drop
|
But on the left side of my chest is a empty spot
|
I can't lie, these lil' groupies they tempt me a lot
|
But for me to fall victim I simply could not
|
Nah nah - I don't brag about the bottles I pop
|
A lot of y'all are runnin around here with the models I mop
|
Five years ago when "Entourage" was shot to the top
|
Surprised she's still skinny, shorty swallows a lot
|
Ha ha! And ever so often
|
somebody comes around and delivers great songs without flossin
|
Without talkin, 'bout shit that isn't important
|
Like makin a fortune off of somebody snortin
|
But bein a force is a call to someone in coffin[?]
|
This is all we doin with hip-hop, we lost them
|
But we should be ashamed of ourselves
|
The only people we could blame is ourselves
|
Who else?
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Marsha Ambrosius (Saigon)]
|
I didn't dream, to be all I can be
|
For I am I
|
My imagination, I can do it all (do it all)
|
Do just what I want (ha ha!)
|
|
[Saigon]
|
I got released from Atlantic Records, 2010
|
I swear to God it felt like I was gettin out of the pen'
|
It started off real good, but how will it end?
|
Will I make it to the top of the tower again?
|
Will I be on Hot 9 or Power again?
|
Or will the people just assume that I'm sour within?
|
I told my +Story+ to 40,000 people
|
Now it's time for me to get equal, the sequel
|
|
[Chorus - without Saigon's ad libs]
