Broken Silence Lyrics


Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
{"Rapper Foxy Brown was arrested today in Raleigh
North Carolina on misdemeaner charges
For an alledged altercation with a hotel employee
She was arrested and released on a thousand dollar bond
But if found guilty of the charge
She could face up to sixty days in prison"}{"Gun fire erupted today outside a Greenwich Village radio station
The gunplay allegedly stems from an ungoing feud
Both artists claim no involvement in the incident
No arrests have yet been made in connection with the shooting"}{"In other news, rap artist Foxy Brown
Was hospitalized yesterday after an apparent overdose

On a common prescription drug
While the overdose was allegedly an attempt at her own life
No one from the hospital nor Foxy's family were available for comment
Stay tuned for more news"}{"Inga Marchand, also known as rapper Foxy Brown
Was taken to a local hospital today
When the Range Rover she was driving spun out of
Control at a Brooklyn sidestreet
Although she was not seriously injured
Marchand was later arrested for driving with a suspended license
This is just another in a long list of offences that have
Plagued this Brooklyn rap star"}Yeah, I know it's been a long time since y'all heard my voice
Maybe what, 2, 3, years or somethin'
Been up and down, been high and low
Even been at the point of no return, but no hope
Just want to let my fans know that I'm still here
Y'all holla backThe sound was broken, too many years being political
It's kinda hard to do when everything your seein' is critical
It's all my fault what they said in the news
But it's funny, how the public seems to get it confused
They act like they ain't got nothin' better to do
All they want is a statement, the hatin' is blatin'
But we never paid attention to those who hate us
'Til my face was on the cover of all the local papersBut still un-phased, I kept my cool
Plottin', carefully, every step I choose
And my, cool-whit poin, and my write finery
Everybody wanna know my side of the story
Well here it is, the whole truth, plain and simple
This'll finally explain, all the pain I've been through
And in no way shape or form of my provoken violence
Please try to understand my broken silenceSee black, everybody is on my back
See black, everybody is on my back

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Foxy Brown (born Inga Marchand on September 6, 1978 in Brooklyn, New York) is an American rapper of Trinidadian - Afro-Asian descent known for her solo work as well as numerous collaborations and a brief stint as part of hip-hop supergroup The Firm. Brown has faced many obstacles during her rise to fame, including feuds with other rappers, personal tragedy and run-ins with the law, thus being labeled as one of the more controversial female rappers. She has released four solo albums: 'Ill Na Na' (1996), 'Chyna Doll' (1999), 'Broken Silence' (2001), and 'Brooklyn's Don Diva' (2008). After a bitter split with her record label Def Jam in 2003, Brown ended up in label limbo. In 2004 childhood friend/collaborator Jay-Z resigned Brown to Def Jam and his Rocafella Records label, when he became the President of Def Jam Records. Foxy later split with Def Jam once again to go independent with Black Hand Management.

In 1999 Foxy Brown made history as the first female rapper to have a number 1 album with 'Chyna Doll 'selling over 173,000 copies in the first week.

In 2005 while in the midst of recording her studio album 'Black Roses', Brown faced another hardship when she was diagnosed with sensorineural hearing loss. The hearing impairment took 100% of Brown's hearing, but 20% was restored after an operation to repair it. After her fifth surgery Foxy regained 99.9% of her hearing.

Following a relatively quiet career period which coincided with an eight month jail sentence in 2008, Foxy continued to record the long in-progress 'Black Roses' with a projected release date of late 2010.
