See, the math is simple. (yeah) The more hands in the pot, the less for the people. (real talk) We rely on the middleman too much and that is why everything is so high. (boss vision) We going through multiple people instead of going to the direct source ourselves. It is time to cut the cord.
I am looking at the invoice and the numbers do not add
Seeing how they tax the dream and it makes me kind of mad (yeah)
Everybody wants a cut for just passing it along
While the creator is the one out here singing the song (real talk)
We are trapped in a cycle of the markups and the fees
Begging for the resources on our hands and our knees (never again)
I am an urban merchant looking for the root of the trade
Tearing down the walls that the middleman made (so Majestic)
Why pay for the shadow when the sun is right there? (look up)
We are breathing in the static and the filtered out air (boss)
I am going to the source where the power is pure
Making sure the quality is solid and secure (fact)
Every hand that touches it adds a layer of the cost
While the message of the movement is eventually lost (lyric)
I am taking back the control and I am taking back the keys
Cutting out the static and the corporate degrees (real talk)
Go to the direct source and see it for yourself
Take the power back from the man on the shelf (take it)
No more middleman and no more extra steps
We are doing it for real and we are doing it for reps (so Majestic)
Cut out the noise and cut out the drain
Going to the source to eliminate the pain (boss)
I seen them playing telephone with the truth and the light
Distorting all the vision in the middle of the night (they did)
By the time it reaches you the flavor is all gone
Just a hollowed out version of the original dawn (yeah)
I am an architect of access in the urban terrain
Bypassing the filters that are causing the strain (boss vision)
We are going to the farmer we are going to the mill
Climbing up the mountain and standing on the hill (up there)
It is about the connection and the energy we share
Without the interference and the extra heavy flare (real talk)
I do not need a representative to speak my own name
Or a middleman to tell me how to play the game (never)
The price is too high because the line is too long
We are making it right and we are making it strong (so Majestic)
I am opening the channel and I am clearing the pipe
Moving past the garbage and moving past the hype (fact)
Go to the direct source and see it for yourself
Take the power back from the man on the shelf (take it)
No more middleman and no more extra steps
We are doing it for real and we are doing it for reps (so Majestic)
Cut out the noise and cut out the drain
Going to the source to eliminate the pain (boss)
Cut 'em out. (yeah) Every person in between you and your purpose is a tax. (real talk) If you want the truth, you got to walk to the well yourself. (boss) Stop paying for the middle.
I am looking at the landscape from a vantage point new
Recognizing exactly what I have to do (I see it)
I am building up a bridge that goes straight to the goal
Keeping my integrity and keeping my soul (so Majestic)
The urban landscape is a place of the flow
When you finally know exactly where you need to go (yeah)
I am a student of the origin and a master of the start
Connecting all the people to the rhythm of the heart (lyric Harmony)
No more multiple people in the middle of the deal
We are keeping it direct and we are keeping it real (real talk)
The price is coming down as the power goes up
Drinking pure water from a wooden kind of cup (drink up)
I am a guardian of the channel and a seeker of the truth
Giving all the wisdom to the elders and the youth (boss)
The direct source is the only way to thrive
Feeling so grateful and feeling so alive (so Majestic)
Hand on the pulse and a hand on the line
Knowing that the connection is finally mine (fact)
Go to the direct source and see it for yourself
Take the power back from the man on the shelf (take it)
No more middleman and no more extra steps
We are doing it for real and we are doing it for reps (so Majestic)
Cut out the noise and cut out the drain
Going to the source to eliminate the pain (boss)
Yeah. Cut out the middlemen. (yeah) They are just added weight. (real talk) Go straight to the source. Get the truth. Get the value. Royal D. (boss) Direct connection. So Majestic.
