The Frontline - Now You Know lyrics

What do you mean you want
Out of the contract? You're our best act
Asshole records, may I help you?
Uh, excuse me, Frontline?
Uh, yeah, he'll see you guys now yeah, okay
Well you tell that fucker he
Better get me a single
Can't sell records without a single
That's it and that's all
Sorry, guys, have a seat yeah, alright
Yeah, how you doin'?
Nice to finally meet you
Guys face-to-face, so, um
Got a chance to listen to your project, and
Uh i mean, I'm feelin' the music
I like what you guys are doin', but, um
The Bay Area? That market
That sound just doesn't cut it nationwide

Wha', wha'-wha', wha' That's Oakland
Yee, yee-yee, yee That's Richmond
Hey, hey That's Frisco
And if you ain't from the Bay
Now your ass know
Wha', wha'-wha', wha' That's Oakland
Yee, yee-yee, yee That's Richmond
Hey, hey That's Frisco
And if you ain't from the Bay
Now your ass know yeah

Now somebody told me not to rep the Bay
Why not? This is where I stay
They said that we was dead
And stuck in a grave
And living off songs we made back in the day
So I'ma take this book
And start turning pages
And expose the fact that
They stealing Bay shit
And I ain't talking 'bout
Popping collars and slanguage
I'm talking about the moves they
Made to make it yeah
Artists making label deals
You probably thought that started
With P for sure
That's Bay, we all entrepreneurs
We all doing our thing 'cause
Bay niggas ain't no punks
Distribution popping outta the trunk, partner
And don't think we don't see the relations
To mixtapes, and compilations Yup
And how you come out here
On our radio stations
And say you love the Bay
But can't name the places yeah

Wha', wha'-wha', wha' That's Oakland
Yee, yee-yee, yee That's Richmond
Hey, hey That's Frisco
And if you ain't from the Bay
Now your ass know
Wha', wha'-wha', wha' That's Oakland
Yee, yee-yee, yee That's Richmond
Hey, hey That's Frisco
And if you ain't from the Bay
Now your ass know Yo

We got a little dilemma, mayne
Niggas are really bitter, they riddled
Up in they mental, mayne
I'm in the middle
It's 'bout to give me a mental strain
Everybody's tickled, but none of
Them niggas get it, mayne
I know they just really wanna get rid of me
But, I'm not a victim
I listen as they belittle me
Then I just take the negative energy
Put it in my lyrics and spit
It back at my enemies
I disregard small affairs
Treat 'em like hopscotch and
Step all over squares
Scrutinizing me 'cause I got this
Song on the air
But niggas should understand that
I belong over there
And, yeah, nigga, it's long overdue
They telling you different, then, nigga
It's far from the truth
In actuality, nigga, shit
We starving like you
Nobody wanted to step up 'til we started to
Uh

Wha', wha'-wha', wha' That's Oakland
Yee, yee-yee, yee That's Richmond
Hey, hey That's Frisco
And if you ain't from the Bay
Now your ass know
Wha', wha'-wha', wha' That's Oakland
Yee, yee-yee, yee That's Richmond
Hey, hey That's Frisco
And if you ain't from the Bay
Now your ass know
