Intro 1

Verse 1
Bm 
I work
Em 
my fingers to the bone
My elbow grease heaps
C 
Benefits get reaped,
Bm 
I keep talk to a minimum
Em 
Props are never rendered on my own
C 
I'm my master, sellin' tapes for cash
Bm 
Fuck the middle- man bastards,
Em 
though
It've been faster to take that route
C 
I'm observant, those who didn't
Bm 
Thats unfortunate how it
Em 
turned out
I learned early that beatin'
C 
fools is a worldly trade
Bm 
Man how you gonna profit off
Em 
the music that I make
C'mon now,
I'll trade you for somthin' equal
C 
But robbing artists blind isn't
Bm 
the way to be treatin' people
Em 
And,  I can see that its
gonna take some sweat
C 
But perseverance plus the
Bm 
talent forms a weapon,
Em 
And, we steppin' in fresher this year
Objects in the rear view are closer
than they appear

Verse 2

[Chorus:]

It's a give and take

What you're given's what

they take

There's no leftovers

Only scraps on the plate [x2]

Give me a break, what

Verse 3
Em 
do they have to pay for?
C 
The energies from earth, what
Bm 
do they own that to?
Em 
A slew of bills fill my mailbox on the month
C 
Bm 
The numbers stump me like math
Em 
I gotta pay to take a bath, what?
Pay to see my ass
C 
Bm 
And pay for them to haul away
Em 
the trash when it's full
Pay to heat my food
Bm 
Em 
And pay to watch the tube,
And if I don't have cable there's
no channels for me to flip
And that's more grip,
and if you're poor, shit
C 
Bm 
They only give a few extensions
Em 
Dimensions of the plot run thick
C 
Pretty soon we'll pay for air when
Bm 
they figure out how to sell it
Em 
Tell it like you know it and everybody
wants to laugh
C 
Probably never hear the truth
