Prince
Running Game (Son of a Slave Master)
[Intro: Prince]
Mm, band
Ooh
[Verse 1: Shelby J]
How many gats in the slacks be showin'?
Betcha that the man downtown be knowin'
Wax turn to beef when the gangsters meet
Son of slave master keepin' it goin'
Goin, goin', goin'
[Chorus: Prince & Shelby J]
How much do you want for that real dope beat?
("How much? Possibilities")
Another A&R Man lyin' through their teeth
("He can put it on ya")
("I wanna see it")
Son of a slave master meet and greet
("You see what I'm lookin' for?")
There goes the publishing and you're back on the street
("Let's just see it")
Back on the street
[Verse 2: Shelby J.]
Twenty-five thousand is like selling it free
Seems like a lot next to poverty
How much you really want for all them beats?
Son of slave master keepin' it goin'
Goin, goin', goin', mmm
[Chorus: Prince & Shelby J.]
Uh-huh
All the Gates of Henry uncovered your past
Checker like a NASCAR flags, movin' too fast (Oh)
Betcha if you had your way, you'd turn back the hourglass (Oh)
What an A-S-S (Haha...)
[Refrain: Shelby J.]
Son of slave master
Keepin' it goin'
Goin', goin', goin'
[Verse 3: Shelby J.]
Hey
Don't come to the party
Unless you bring somebody (Hey!)
Somebody that wants to dance
Somebody that wants to make sweet romance
We still got mad love for ya
Even though really don't know ya
[Outro: Prince & Shelby J.]
(Ooh) Black on black crime
Abel and Cain
(Ooh) You would think high yellow would be ashamed
(Ooh) In the twenty-first century it's still about greed and fame
I'm about, about to go insane
('Bout to go insane)
Somebody call 911 and leave his name
Son of a (Son of a) Son of a slave master
Son of a (Son of a) Son of a slave master
(Master)
