《Tell It Like It Is(Album Version|Explicit)》歌词

[00:00:00] Tell It Like It Is - Ludacris

[00:00:01] Daddy is that your car on TV

[00:00:03] You better believe it is baby

[00:00:05] Now go in the other room

[00:00:06] It's 'bout to be some grown folks talkin' here

[00:00:08] Okay

[00:00:09] All right

[00:00:11] Things ain't always what they seem or cracked up to be

[00:00:13] Like all these fakin' ass rappers in this industry

[00:00:17] Talkin' bout what they got

[00:00:18] And they ain't got a damn thang

[00:00:20] How you own three cars

[00:00:21] But you don't own ya own name

[00:00:23] Get ya business right boys

[00:00:24] The first class is in session

[00:00:26] Get a entertainment lawyer in the music profession

[00:00:29] Start up ya own company

[00:00:31] Trademark the name

[00:00:32] That's gon' run ya bout a grand

[00:00:34] So start savin' ya change

[00:00:35] Open a bank account quick

[00:00:37] And then follow these steps

[00:00:38] Sign yourself to yourself and

[00:00:40] Start signin' ya own checks

[00:00:42] Hit the booth and start recording at the speed of need

[00:00:45] Whatever gets ya juices

[00:00:46] Flowin' could be speed or weed

[00:00:48] Get it mixed and mastered

[00:00:49] Pressed up and plastered

[00:00:51] Sell it to ya whole hood out the trunk

[00:00:53] Ya bastard

[00:00:54] Show all the non-believers

[00:00:56] What you destined to be

[00:00:57] And in just a couple years

[00:00:59] You could be rich like me

[00:01:00] But I can't hold my tounge

[00:01:02] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:01:03] This biz ain't all fun

[00:01:05] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:01:06] Give it to ya straight

[00:01:08] No chase

[00:01:08] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:01:10] Look you straight in yo face

[00:01:11] And I'ma tell it like it is

[00:01:13] I can't hold my tounge

[00:01:14] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:01:16] This biz ain't all fun

[00:01:17] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:01:19] Give it to ya straight

[00:01:20] No chase

[00:01:21] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:01:22] Look you straight in yo face

[00:01:24] And I'ma tell it like it is

[00:01:25] See mostly all your favorite artists

[00:01:27] Got some serious problems

[00:01:29] The money could be the problem

[00:01:30] But money can't solve 'em

[00:01:32] Some get addicted to drugs and flat out lazy

[00:01:35] Some taste a little fame and go flat out crazy

[00:01:38] I'm close 'cause those close wanna live off my fame

[00:01:41] And that type of shit alone will drive a nigga insane

[00:01:44] Not to mention all the vultures

[00:01:46] The scandelous promoters

[00:01:47] Crabs will try to sue ya

[00:01:49] Magazines will misquote ya

[00:01:51] Most of these label-heads

[00:01:52] They don't care nothin' about ya

[00:01:54] If you stop sellin' records

[00:01:55] They'll act like they don't know ya

[00:01:57] It's hard mixin' business with pleasure

[00:01:59] So don't play

[00:01:59] Me and my crew argue and fight like every other day

[00:02:03] Rappers ain't above the law

[00:02:04] But our life is so fast

[00:02:06] That we got a Special Task Force of police on our ass

[00:02:09] All that

[00:02:10] And this is really just the start of it

[00:02:12] Hip Hop

[00:02:13] You really wanna be a part of it

[00:02:15] I can't hold my tounge

[00:02:17] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:02:18] This biz ain't all fun

[00:02:20] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:02:21] Give it to ya straight

[00:02:22] No chase

[00:02:23] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:02:24] Look you straight in yo face

[00:02:26] And I'ma tell it like it is

[00:02:28] I can't hold my tounge

[00:02:29] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:02:31] Man this biz ain't all fun

[00:02:32] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:02:34] I'ma give it to ya straight

[00:02:35] No chase

[00:02:36] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:02:37] Look you straight in yo face

[00:02:39] And I'ma tell it like it is

[00:02:40] What's worse than havin'

[00:02:41] No money is havin' it and losin' it

[00:02:43] What's worse than havin'

[00:02:44] Some money is grabbin' and abusin' it

[00:02:47] We never took no money from Chingy

[00:02:48] Thought I was cool wit him

[00:02:50] I wish his ass well

[00:02:51] But I don't want nothin' to do with him

[00:02:53] Some don't own they publishin'

[00:02:54] Me I never fool wit 'em

[00:02:56] I'm down for my artists

[00:02:57] Try my best to stay true to 'em

[00:02:59] 'Cause outside my label competition is irrelevant

[00:03:02] Unless I'm still in competition with my president

[00:03:06] And believe that I'm supportin' the Hova

[00:03:08] 'Cause the industry's shady

[00:03:10] It needs to be taken over'

[00:03:11] But the first rule to accumalation of wealth

[00:03:14] Is Don't trust nobody but ya God damned self

[00:03:18] I can't hold my tounge

[00:03:19] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:03:20] Man this biz ain't all fun

[00:03:22] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:03:24] I'm give it to ya straight

[00:03:25] No chase

[00:03:25] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:03:27] Look you straight in yo face

[00:03:28] And I'ma tell it like it is

[00:03:30] I said I can't hold my tounge

[00:03:31] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:03:33] This biz ain't all fun

[00:03:35] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:03:36] Give it to ya straight

[00:03:37] No chase

[00:03:38] I'ma tell it like it is

[00:03:39] Look you straight in yo face

[00:03:41] And I'ma tell it like it is

[00:03:43] Daddy

[00:03:44] Are you finished this grown folk talk

[00:03:46] Yeah baby

[00:03:46] You can come back in here

[00:03:48] Come give Daddy a kiss

[00:03:49] You know I love you right

[00:03:51] And I love you always
