You sit and think about
How you can hit the scene
Take one look inside
Your mirror clear to see
You need to find yourself
As honest as can be
There must be fifty ways to make a record
Now don't get wrapped into
The hype and what they think
This shit ain't rocket science
The scene changes with beats
And now you ask yourself
How you want to be seen
There must be fifty ways to make a record
He's up inside the clubs
They like to lean and rock, oh
Stands around and looks intrigued by what he saw
Now he asks me,
How he can make good songs to reach the top
There must be fifty ways to make a record
Fifty ways to make a record
You got talent and
Your soul cannot be bought
He looked and smiled at me
And told me, "Thanks a lot"
See I could use your help
And would you please explain about the fifty ways
It's kind of easy, if you have a open mind
This game is more than spending money and f*cking dimes
It's all within your words, some shit that outlives time
There must be fifty ways to make a record
Fifty ways to make a record
