lyrics

Verse 1

How many plays do you got
I know you wake up at 5 on the dot
Looking at the clock like it could’ve been more
If you woke up at 4
But they don’t understand great music no more
So you gotta bombard’em with the bulletin board
And face book groups just to even the score
They wanna be left alone/
But my material is so home grown
And there’s no way I should not be world wide known
Sitting on chrome aiming for the throne
Putting music in genres where it doesn’t belong
Song out for 10 minutes nobody heard so I’m offended
Making so much music the game must be winded
I try too hard to be part of your Ipod
Everybody listens/ they like what they hear
If I said I did music/ they’d laugh in my ear

Hook

How many plays do you have
Let’s see here can you count the math
10 songs a day doesn’t amount to stacks
Take your page down kid you’re whack

How many plays do you want
I don’t care if you grind or give it your all
20 songs a week for the rest of yall
Oh man You’re bound to fall

Verse 2

I really do this for hip hop/ you don’t figure
Try to keep it alive so I don’t pull triggers
Matter fact I don’t call us niggas
Take a step further white rappers wiggers
Try to get my play count as large as big is
Got enough hits and my album cuts sick
You can find songs all over the net
If you think I’m not nice you can place a bet
Return my money and face your debt
I can’t help that I do real songs
So my play count should be a million strong
But all your know is a millie and some dude getting silly
And I can’t even take a vacation to Philly
Add more pages for the alternatives to feel me
Damn I’m so real now
But I only made it to 20 thou

Hook

How many plays do you have
Let’s see here can you count the math
10 songs a day doesn’t amount to stacks
Take your page down kid you’re whack

How many plays do you want
I don’t care if you grind or give it your all
20 songs a week for the rest of yall
Oh man You’re bound to fall

Verse 3

It’s day two of the saga
I’m bout to log in and I’m feeling all this drama
Where should I begin/ half my fan base is part German
Hope they speak English and understand what I meant
Cause Americans obviously just don’t get
What I’m trying to build a future forreal
Damn lost one fan to the hills
If I made it to the radio they would say I’m dope
Then the fans that I had they’d be like nope
I like when you have no fame being broke
It’s a damn shame Interscope
Place me under house arrest
Play counts don’t validate that I’m the best
I retaliate with 6 new songs
It can’t be me the world must be wrong
Then I dissed Tom
And my myspace account is gone
