Unchanged Songtext
von Dujeous

Yeah, y′all ain't think we was coming back for the title, right?
You thought we′d die out, like the
Rest of those slump ass niggas, huh?
Me? I'm a firm believer that you achieve success
Through hard work and perseverance, you know?
Uh, yeah

Uh, I take my time to construct, the pen and paper erupts
Full of honesty and artistry, honorably
Reppin' from the rugged to the R&B
Givin′ fans every little part of me
Rhythms from my arteries cut deep like it ought to bleed
It′s chill as it ought to be
All these niggas that talk to me was phony when I hawk CDs

Walked the streets, lookin' for a piece of the pie
Bleed in my eyes, a work ethic that′ll never subside
Got in the door on the side, handle music on sly
Give it a try, now they laugh and they keep gettin' high
Chill on the far side, watchin′ 'em keep passin′ me by
But when I get some accolades, they askin' me to stop by


Now I'm inside record stores that never reply
Call up distributors, tell ′em that they need a supply
DJs actin′ surprised on how my caliber rise
Had Street Edition for two years now and never realize, but yo

Ain't nothin′ new out under the sun
Funny it's all the same, the game remains unchanged
Hard to believe when all′s said and done
If you're to blame, it′ll all come back to you

Karma's a bitch when you part of the shit
That gives love a bad name and just started the riff
Makin' wack MCs that much harder to diss
I′m seein′ that big business is at the heart of the hits
Pardon my diction and pardon my fist
When it's raised in the sky, the clouds part and that shit
I know they try to say it just don′t exist

But it makes less sense than a Chris Wallace diss
See, it's them industry politics, we follow this
Up with knowledge, but gotta sugarcoat to swallow it

Acknowledge it ′cause I'm keepin′ my mind muscular
I'm givin' back like a dissatisfied customer


Up in the stands, shakin′ hands with the hustlers
Boomerang, Apocalypse Now without the couplers
Ain′t nothin' new except these rules to live by
The cinematic karma, keep it live from NY

Ain′t nothin' new out under the sun
Funny it′s all the same, the game remains unchanged
Hard to believe when all's said and done
If you′re to blame, it'll all come back to you

I say a prayer for innovation in the day
At night, I write student interns at the radio stations
24/7, I fight, research informations
While all the while, time's tellin′ me to be patient
But I think I′m mad strange, mang
The deranged Kang do it too, livin' proof, look ma, no tooth

On the road to concern, tryin′ to get too aloof
I stomp a fool just for sellin' the truth straight out the booth
Then I wrench a situation

Tellin′ myself, "Be a mensch, it'll pay, kid"
I′ve been led astray, mang, now I'm mad jaded, say
This is that bright May day strapped in a dental chair
With Connie drillin' away in stops and fits and
Wherever it fits in, ringin′ doorbells to find somebody fi listen
People are strange when you′re a Sasquatch
Tryna be a big somebody pon di block

Ain't nothin′ new out under the sun
Funny it's all the same, the game remains unchanged
Hard to believe when all′s said and done
If you're to blame, it′ll all come back to you
Ain't nothin' new out under the sun
Funny it′s all the same, the game remains unchanged
Hard to believe when all′s said and done
If you're to blame, it′ll all come back to you

Funny it's all the same
Unchanged
