A man with a promise smashes down my door
   He sees a future with me, he's gonna give me more
   Give all your trust, I'm sure you won't regret
   Just sign the dotted lind, 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
  
   Pre-chorus I.
   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, caused 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 fuckin' 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'vre been burned
   Your a man with a promise but you ain't shit to me
   You ain't shit to me
  
   Lead
   Pre-chorus II
   Chorus
