Exposed

Yeah

I feel like I'm the only one

Feel like I'm the only one

Y'all gon' have to do better

I can't believe what I'm seeing

All this bullshit going on

The industry is deceiving

All the masses

Pitching rappers as these independent grinds

Meanwhile there's been a label right behind them the whole time

Fake shit, call it out

You were plugged before your first song

I was putting in work

You were getting worked on

You fans are fickle

Cuz your come up is a mystery

My fans gon' stick with me

Cuz me and them go history

Longer than two songs

You don't know how to build

You tried to start at the roof, ah

You son't be here for too long

I don't fuck with crews unless you're the one who put the crew on

The rest of y'all got buzz because he put you on a few songs

Oh, umm, did that strike a nerve

If the shoe fits then wear it

Either way I know the truth, I'ma share it

See these rappers sign deals

Labels know what they're doing

They tell the rapper don't announce it

So the people keep rooting

Try to keep me on the hush, but I do not give a fuck

This is Russ uncut, I'll expose you

You ain't really seen shit, just wait till I'm on

Then it's on, got a lot I gotta show you

Why you got to lie? Yeah

I'll bring it to the light, yeah

Gotta expose fake shit

I put in too much time, yeah

Coming through, exposing fake shit

God can't save you

You're a boss? You got a boss

And that boss rapes you

Barely pays you

But you cool with it

You're a soldier unaware that you're a lieutenant

I gotta gripe with the media

All of y'all are wannabes

Producers and rappers

Down for sodomy

Dick taking cause the industry tells you to

It's fucked up, I had a standard that I held you to

I'll name names if you provoke me

So shut your fucking mouth

My platform is way bigger

Than the ones that turned me down

Bunch of grown men and women

Talking bout grown men and women for a living

Man you gotta be kidding

Call me bitter, call me jealous

Call me this, call me that

This is ten years grinding, what the fuck you call that?

Made the beats, wrote the songs, sang the hooks

And I mixed it

Everybody's gotta switch and ya'll just flipped it

Try to keep me on the hush, but I do not give a fuck

This is Russ uncut, I'll expose you

You ain't really seen shit, just wait till I'm on

Then it's on, got a lot I gotta show you

Why you got to lie? Yeah

I'll bring it to the light, yeah

Gotta expose fake shit

I put in too much time, yeah

You're an industry artist

I'm an artist in the industry

Me, myself and I, that's the holy fucking trinity

I partnered with Columbia

Partnered is the key word

We split the profits 50/50

Better do your research

Came in with my own fanbase

Sold out tours around the world before the handshakes

You see I play the game well

You let the game play you

You don't know your own power

You think the label save you

Now subconsciously you owe them

You're submissive with your actions

Then you flop flop flop

And you wonder what happened

Couple things

You dropped one song and signed a deal

You have less than ten songs out

You're not real

So the song became bigger than the artist

People know the song but they don't know the artist

Not enough songs to become their favorite artist

Not enough songs to be a headline artist

I could do a week-long set if I performed my whole catalogue

Every single song the crowds sing and rap along

Fuck a summer, I'm a decade rapper

You're here now, I'll be here a decade after

I put out eleven albums

Produced by Russ

Mix mastered, engineered, written by Russ

Try to keep me on the hush, but I do not give a fuck
