Got Damned?
Murs

{*vocal sample*}

So many... So many, so many questions

So many... So many, so many questions


[Verse 1: murs]

One of a kind so there's nobody like me

And I guess that's the reason that nobody likes me

Or is it that I don't like anybody else?

Can't quite figure it out so I keep to myself

Too street for the sheltered, underground fan

Too intelligent for play on your fm band

So I thought to crossover, but I left them plans

My resolve's to do me and do the best I can

And yes I am, aware that most of my fans are white

But I'm love em all, scope em, and open 'em when I write

Some may chastize, from the side, crack jokes

Say I'm not black cus I rep with white folks

Man please!

I hear the hate in your voice when you say it

So I'ma keep makin music for whoever wants to play it

If I don't go gold, then my people say I flopped

But if I go triple platnum, I'm not Hip-Hop


[Chorus:]

So I'm damned if I do, and damned if I don't

But I got it in my heart so I'll be damned if I won't

Make my dreams come true, my team come through

Man take it how you feel it; on the real it's on you


I'm damned if I do, and damned if I don't

But I got it in my heart so I'll be damned if I won't

Make my dreams come true, my team come through

Man take it how you feel it; on the real it's on you


{*vocal sample*}

So many... So many, so many questions

So many... So many, so many questions


[Murs]

Man! Motherfuckers always be comin up to me, you know

Askin me how come I don't kick no rhymes for the struggle

Or no conscience, revolutionary raps man...


[Verse 2: murs]

Look; I'm not your average rapper talkin shit about the government

Its not that I'm lovin it; it's where I live

They tried to bomb the place where I wanna raise my kids

I don't know what everybody seems to think this is

It ain't a game, ther is no reign, they want America crushed

If you don't like Bush, you still dyin with us

And trust I haven't forgotten bout the schemes they been plottin

On my people for centuries, I know that eventually we'll be on top

So what they fightin overseas? Hell, they fightin on my block!

The black sheep of America's family. We are the flock

Gettin lead to the slaughter

Have to work twice as hard to keep our heads above water

And god forbid we start to rise through positive means

They'll send out a whole black operative team

Everytime a black leader steps up, he gets trampled

Do I start makin speeches or just lead by example?


[Chorus:]

I'm damned if I do, and damned if I don't

But I got it in my heart so I'll be damned if I won't

Make my dreams come true, my team come through

Man take it how you feel it; on the real it's on you


I'm damned if I do, and damned if I don't

But I got it in my heart so I'll be damned if I won't

Make my dreams come true, my team come through

Man take it how you feel it; on the real it's on you


{*vocal sample*}

So many... So many, so many questions

So many... So many, so many questions


[Murs]

So many questions. So what man? You hangin with El? You signed to Def Jux?

How much you get for your advance man?


[Verse 3: murs]

Off this album right here I probably won't see royalties for 2 years

But shit I'm a straight up hustler! Aint nothin queer in this

Oops! I shouldnt've said that cause it disses on my publicist

I don't give a fuck! 'cause this is one man's view

And with this mic I'ma show what one man can do

I'ma hustler motherfucker like this world has never seen

Could sell Chloroform to a room of Evergreens

Toured around the globe with my legendary team

So I shouldn't have to beg to get a G a show

500 people pay ten bucks, then where does it go?

In the fucking promoter's pocket?!!?

That aint how it's supposed to be

Nobody paid to see him; they paid to see me!

I'm not a full-of-myself, arrogant emcee

I'm only askin for a fifth, a measly 20 percent.

I'm not tryin to get over, I'm just tryin to pay rent!

Right now I wanna thank ya'll for lettin me vent

And I'ma catch ya next show at the bar gettin bent

Notice I put my heart in every word I meant

Presentin it to y'all with the sincerest intent...

Thank you
