| Sweatshop coming through so everybody move over no sir don’t worry at all
|
| (Na, Na na na, na na na, na na na, na na na)
|
| We’re gonna break the mold and shake the whole thing so surely they’ll fall
|
| (Na na na, na na na)

|
| Don’t you figure its a little bit twisted this bullshit that gets rotated
|
| In most cases don’t say shit but we’re still listenin'
|
| And MCs if you decide to push your views aside
|
| and choose to ride whatever’s popular at the moment then do it,
|
| I’ll just make music that’s dissing it.
|
| Because it’s just the way you’re thinking it’ll keep our ship sinking
|
| And its keeping me living within a prison
|
| And disconnected isn’t entered from the infinite
|
| And given just a glimpse of what it is and isn’t is what we’re living in.
|
| Trim the speech, the beat since the truth we speak,
|
| Bring the heat or failure creeps in inches we don’t eat.
|
| We’ll find an image to mimic to get our 15 minutes
|
| Till SoundScan drags down all our hopes to the limit,
|
| But why do I have to try to dumb down the sound
|
| In a compromise to try to turn sails around?
|
| If I speak my piece, will the interest cease?
|
| Well at least will get a week
|
| And if they’re driven to spin it,
|
| We’ll make change from within it,
|
| But if not we’ll get got, cause bitter washed-up cynics
|
| Pretend to like spot hype and we’ll be alright
|
| Singing right for the fight and we can better this life
|
| Mmm I wonder how to leave the underground with dignity intact and be the
|
| rappers that we are today we say but even fatter
|
| So we’ll tour in tons of towns and bump the sound for kids that need the facts
|
| and fiend for rap and something to say but in this industry is backwards
|
| Mmm without radio play your sales may be okay maybe you’ll stay afloat maybe
|
| plenty of tape maybe you’ll drown turn the radio down
|
| Who’s that? |
| Sweatshop, and we shaking your ground
|
| Love to hand feed everyone
|
| Do believe its fundamental to need funds,
|
| Sobering look at what we’ve become, above our heads a web of deceit is spun.
|
| To the beat of a drum, we’ll speak to the young
|
| And teach, never preach of false freedom
|
| Redeem some rights, some wrongs, and write my songs to feed the
|
| and industry pythons.
|
| No matter what you say, you better watch the snakes;
|
| We’re just the prey for anybody who loves the game.
|
| But trust the game, gonna embrace the touch of fame-
|
| (Don't worry there’s no shame!)
|
| 'Cause no way it’s okay, they get jerked for low pay, have to serve and obey,
|
| it’s all work and no play!
|
| But hope
|
| don’t change a make some old diggy overplayed willy
|
| what tape with no soul. |
