chained for the fame,chained for the game/
chained for the dames...im chained/

(hook)
my ancestors was but me i aint never been a slave/
i live my life in a way that make it feel like those days/

cuz ima slave to the drugs, ima slave to love/
everytime i get paid, i put myself back in chains/


(Verse)
i may be free but something is controlling me/
the crack the weed the D got a hold of me/

without im incomplete theres a hole in me/
this is all real this aint a role to me/
this aint a character im trying to portray this is me everyday

in the debts of the prices that pay/
yes i pray to the man on the cross when i come across/
a battle where im taking a loss, id be lying if i said i was boss/

im not calling my own shots/
like im owned by the devil in his pitiless plot
when i drink a glass of alcohol he talks to me/

when my anger comes out is when he walks with me/
7 years ago i must have broke a mirror or spilled the salt/
i swear man it aint my fault/

no longer a victim cuz my nationality but its clear to see/
im a victim of pain n agony/

verse

lex luthor, joker they aint the villians
honestly its these soul killing women
they use ya heart like clay

thinkng emotions is a game you can play
i aint tryin to say i had it super rough
im jus tryn say that i done had enough

when your close they push to put ya back against a wall
can never lend a hand when you fall
and i dont mean all but its damn near

the word love it should be a mans worst fear
inside of my chest can bet that it hurts there
i done shed bled, my eyes rain tears

my momma warned but i still done it
love is bad but i cant help it that i still wonder
wonder what its all for , my risk the the reward

got a shield but im fighting with a double edge sword

hook


verse


naw they dont want us to have this money
they dont want us to live lovely
flashy cars and whips they keep us whipped

gold chains keep us chained down thats what they dont get
we work for a fortune you cant just spin a wheel
we gotta ball out or get a record deal

got me out here wasting 100 dollar bills
but im addicted to the fame its thrill
when i go broke its like gods detention

this attention it is a prevention
preventing me from steadily increasing my wealth
what happens when my cds off the shelf and theres nothing else
