Chorus: *sung hook from an R&B record* Got to give the people Give the people what they want Ladies and Gentlemen (repeat 2X) Verse One: Erick Sermon When I came out with my first rap jam I had no idea that the record would slam It did real good without radio play Maybe at night but no airplay in the day I couldn't understand why to be exact Our music was good and I was far from wack Then came the answer, commercial was the key To get airplay and a spot on TV Like Ed Lover and Doctor Dre from Yo! MTV Raps A show, mainly for the black And still we can't ill, cause to them that's wrong Cause like P.E. said, we're too black and too strong But hey, what can I say (Brothers and sisters) that's a price a rapper must pay Chorus Verse Two: PMD As airwaves collapse rap shows at a standstill Some racial circuits the frequencies can't handle The funk tracks produced by EPMD But it's a fat jam, that will never win a grammy Unless we sellout and kill the black movement dead Which means swallow our pride and become flunkies instead And stop the rap about freedom, thoughts of a black president
