D.O.O.M

[VERSE: JOVAN]
Different days, different folks, different notes, different strokes
Everybody’s writing quotes as if they got the anecdote
Unbalanced music ratios is what is played on radios
I have to know: Is it well within your soul, you letting go?
Are you lost within the fame, just out here tryna brand your name
You thinking it’s a game, while we out here, getting degrees
Under impressions we believe that we can achieve all of our dreams
Instead we have some competition, opposition pedigree
Feel me when I’m saying ya’ll plaguing some generations
Forgetting the common to function to think, leads situations
I’m questioning your existence, your lack of home education
Simplifying words, monolithic syllabic synopation
Making it hard for those creating change up in society
Industries making money on trapping, banging and poverty
Put yourself on the line for a little bit of the shine
Talking bout “gang-gang-gang!” and can’t throw us a punchline!
You partaking in chitter chatter, on who is the hottest rapper
Sorry I uproar in laughter, simply: You really suck
Cause’ I’m done and I had enough
You want truth? Well here’s what’s up
Don’t be pushing me to my limits, you’ve certainly pressed your luck
Don’t give up, I’m saying your lyrics need modifying
It may take you a while, but just do it in your own timing
For us, it’s nothing new, and we making sure it’s embedded
Don’t try to call it your own without giving a little credit!
So just...

[HOOK: JOVAN]
Give me what I want & give me what I need
So that I can feed the needy, then myself, oh yes indeedy
I can give you what ya'll want, and give you what ya'll need
To set you free, to let you be, yes please so
Give me what I want & give me what I need
So that I can feed the needy, then myself, oh yes indeedy
I can give you what ya'll want, and give you what ya'll need
To set you free, to let you be, yes please...

[VERSE: FURY]
Aye, what you want? (What you want?) What you need? (What you need?)
Cause messing with me definitely
Lessens the life expectancy of reckless emcees
Steadily making mindless music
And readily I'm suited up for war let's get into it
Cause it's more than just these songs that we are fighting for
Writing for my culture not exposure so I might endure
The criticism saying they kids, we should forgive em
Let em live without restrictions: Exactly how we got in this position
It's no difference cause they did it to the Panthers
Killed their leaders, locked em up, gave em drugs, it is the answer
To stop every Revolution, our people are the problems and solution
Cause it's a thin line between art and prostitution
You do it for the cash but then you give it right back to them
So your freedom's an illusion and you're feeding institutions
Dedicated to reducing, our population
So get in tune with who it is that you influence, come on!

[HOOK: JOVAN & FURY]
Give me what I want (say what you want!) & give me what I need (and what you need!)
So that I can feed the needy, then myself, oh yes indeedy
I can give you what ya'll want (say what you want!) and give you what ya'll need (and what you need!)
To set you free, to let you be, yes please so
Give me what I want (say what you want!) & give me what I need (and what you need!)
So that I can feed the needy, then myself, oh yes indeedy
I can give you what ya'll want (say what you want!) and give you what ya'll need (and what you need!)
To set you free, to let you be, yes please...

[VERSE: JOVAN]
Now I apologize in the beginning of the verse, cause it came off a little vain
Cause I know you get it a lot, and you’re sick of the complaints
But in the same vein, I do believe in moving with the times
There's no excuse to why a rapper cannot write cold lines
I was told that every era in music had many lanes
But the thing about it now is that lames are running the game
It’s like no one’s doing their research, or putting in the work
It’s like the media is changing our ethic, hunger and thirst
But it’s worse, it’s a curse… What if the greats were alive
Would we have a different perspective, be a little more wise?
Would we grind a little harder, or think conscious in our lyrics
Or would everything stay the same, with the rise of the gimmicks?
It’s an epidemic, they need to be taught up instead of caught up
On the latest trend, we need to foster their minds
We gotta teach up, instead of put down
You know what goes around just comes around...
And we're better than this...

[HOOK: JOVAN & FURY]
Give me what I want (say what you want!) & give me what I need (and what you need!)
So that I can feed the needy, then myself, oh yes indeedy
I can give you what ya'll want (say what you want!) and give you what ya'll need (and what you need!)
To set you free, to let you be, yes please so
Give me what I want (say what you want!) & give me what I need (and what you need!)
So that I can feed the needy, then myself, oh yes indeedy
I can give you what ya'll want (say what you want!) and give you what ya'll need (and what you need!)
To set you free, to let you be, yes please...
