A man with a promise smashes down my door
he sees a future with me, he's gonna give me more
"give me all your trust, i'msure you won't regret
just sign the dotted line, and i'll do so the rest"
he says i can't make it alone, not without him
but i've always been on my own, he doesn't know who i am
and now i'm starting to see just what you are to me
a parasitic leech of my life
[pre-chorus:]
You feed off the art that i bleed
you're a man with a promise but you ain't shit to me
A man broke his promise and he wants reparations
he sold me up the river, cause me grief and frustration
i gave him all my trust and got stabbed in the back
a lucky motherfucker that he hasn't yet been whacked
you ain't no fucking artist, spend your life exploiting others
try all you want, you can't break me or my brothers
a business man vulture,no honor, no class
take your money and your lawyers and shove 'em up your ass
[pre-chorus ii:]
You feed off the art that i bleed
numbers to you is just pain to me
[chorus:]
Now the tables are turned
can't you see motherfucker that you've been burned
you're a man with a promise but you ain't shit to me
you ain't shit to me
[lead]
[pre-chorus ii]
