Both was my attempt too make something VERY mainstream. The instrumental being a mix of pop and rap. A catchy hook and hard verses with pop culture references and also homage being payed too where I come from with Pride.
[Hook]
What is it that we want, the status or the image
Well if we have both, then we're winning
Yeah we winning, yeah we winning
Yeah we winning yeah we winning
What is it that we want, the status or the image
Well if we have both, then we're winning
Yeah we winning, yeah we winning
Yeah we winning yeah we winning
What is it that we want, the status or the image
Well if we have both, then we're winning
Yeah we winning, yeah we winning
Yeah we winning yeah we winning
[Verse 1]
I can feel this verse and everything that i been doing imma have to keep it real while im rapping
Cuz if i can take the critisism with all of the good and stay humble the audience will keep clapping
Im feeling like i could take away the pain
And save it for the day
When im rapping on the mic they saying sloanll go insane
Its like you learning facts to blow your mind
Im perfecting my grind and i ain't ever wasting no time
If i could have the status and the power and the riches
I would leave these rappers in the ditches get'em sleeping with the fishes
They would call it visious
Gotta make it on the hunnid hits list
Im a mogul out the dirt
A fifth element somebody thats relevant
Livin life on the elevate
Give'em something thatll fuck with their temperment coming fresher than pepper mint
I know what i need to go achieve
I might been
A bit obscene, but whats the profit from it if im never seen not sippin lean im only clean
Morley is an icon if one i am ever it is only me
Only stunting i been flossing and im ripping on these beats
[Hook x2]
What is it that we want, the status or the image
Well if we have both, then we're winning
Yeah we winning, yeah we winning
Yeah we winning yeah we winning
What is it that we want, the status or the image
Well if we have both, then we're winning
Yeah we winning, yeah we winning
Yeah we winning yeah we winning
[verse 2]
I think i roll the dice a house of cards could lead to something fatal
Call me underwood so when you see me mobbin in the street ill go by kevin cuz im spacey
But if you face me, i hope say please
Caught me in the frame of something beautiful
Soldier my music dutiful it is so therapeutical
Tearing my hair right off my head
With all the drama of haters
But soon ill call'em my waiters
Cuz all you phonies are traitors
If you ain't about me, im not about you
(yeah im not about you)
Morley from the west, westman OG
Im the Brandon Wheat King, Morley
[Hook]
What is it that we want, the status or the image
Well if we have both, then we're winning
Yeah we winning, yeah we winning

What is it that we want, the status or the image
Well if we have both, then we're winning
Yeah we winning, yeah we winning
Yeah we winning yeah we winning
What is it that we want, the status or the image
Well if we have both, then we're winning
Yeah we winning, yeah we winning
