Radio

Hi, my name is jme, there was a time when radio played me

Cause my music came from my heart, it was real to me

But now it's a part

I'm here struggling, keeping it real, while the rest of them are hustling, seeking a deal

Sometimes I sit back and think, jme just do one tune, make a couple cheese and chill

The reason I started making music is the exact same reason that I'll never do it, I swear

I didn't go through all of that for this

I'll give that a miss, that's just how it is, I'm fair, straight

Who can tell me different? You could be determined

Man on a mission, my music is me, and I am my music

So like it or lump it, I'ma do this

I never had a playlist in my heart, ooh

Now I need an a list just to chart

But I've been famous from the start

How am I gonna make my mark? Ooh

Are you gonna play me though? This song was never meant for the radio

I get it in forget a radio spin, I'm just doing my thing, and I don't have time for a playlist

How much will you pay me though? If this song's not a hit on the radio, oho, oho, oho, oh

Thank God for night clubs and the raves

Cos I don't think they like us on the airwaves

Unless we water it down, but cordial music is boring me now

I swear, I guess it matters what your goal is

Or in this music scene, what your role is

I'm still trying here, cause I'm a pioneer

I use my mouth less than I use my eyes and ears

See I'm just telling you the truth

Cant shoot the messenger, bullet proof booth

You won't hear me on the radio, but go to the rave, and the crowd, they're raising roof

Why does that? What's going on there?

To tell you the truth, I don't really care

I am my music, my music is me

Like it or lump it, this is how it's gonna be

I never had a playlist in my heart, ooh

Now I need an a list just to chart

But I've been famous from the start

How am I gonna make my mark? Ooh

Are you gonna play me though? This song was never meant for the radio

I get it in forget a radio spin, I'm just doing my thing, and I don't have time for a playlist

How much will you pay me though? If this song's not a hit on the radio, oho, oho, oho, oh

I feel it on the airwave, spinning on the dial

Bleeding through the speakers, written by the pile

So won't you hear me out?

Never feel it from the base line, feel it in the club

Maybe I could take time singing for the dub

So won't you hear me out?

I never had a playlist in my heart, ooh

Now I need an a list just to chart

But I've been famous from the start

How am I gonna make my mark? Ooh

Are you gonna play me though? This song was never meant for the radio

I get it in forget a radio spin, I'm just doing my thing, and I don't have time for a playlist

How much will you pay me though? If this song's not a hit on the radio, oho, oho, oho, oh
