[Intro: Saba]
Mm, mm, mm
[Verse 1: Saba]
Okay, the money on the way, it'll lay by the first
Adolescence, I would curse on the way to the church
My career just turned to cursive, how I connect the words
Ain't grow up with much of shit, but, still, it could've been worse
He ain't focused on her pants, he wan' get in her purse
I need it all in advance if they book me to work
From "We barely had a chance, left the crib on alert"
To a crib with alarms and security perks
Insecurity hurts the same way jewelry works
So, if you payin' to flex, pay your security first
No point in payin' for whips to ride a funеral hearse
We bе prepared for the best, but also fearin' the worst
[Pre-Chorus: Saba]
Okay, every nigga that I know is scared of goin' broke
I know if I fall back down, ain't no one there to lend me rope
Okay, and every nigga that I know takes care of so-and-so
So ain't no option, option, option, you best go make more
[Chorus: Daoud & Saba]
'Cause fearmonger live amongst us
I feel hunger, hunger
But guess I feel somethin' at least
I need somethin' to eat
'Cause fearmonger live amongst us
I feel hunger, hunger
But guess I feel somethin' at least
I need somethin' to eat
[Verse 2: Saba]
And scared money never made money—what I was taught
But once you made money, you be more afraid than us all
My grandfather drove a Corvette convertible car
He passed away and left his will to the fate of the stars
I made a cool mm-mm off of sayin' a bar
I was scared to spend a dime, like, what if I die tomorrow?
Would my fam intervene for a bag of the G's?
In a Black Model 3, sheesh, passenger seat
Would my fans leave if I can't put asses in seats?
If I logout an app or I lack a retweet?
I'm just scared to go back, didn't have shit to eat
Half my bread go to taxes, the actual thieves
[Pre-Chorus: Saba]
Okay, every nigga that I know is scared of goin' (Broke)
I know if I fall back down, ain't no one there to lend me rope
Okay, and every nigga that I know takes care of so-and-so
So ain't no option, option, option, you best go make more
[Chorus: Daoud & Saba]
'Cause fearmonger live amongst us
I feel hunger, hunger
But guess I feel somethin' at least
I need somethin' to eat
'Cause fearmonger live amongst us
I feel hunger, hunger
But guess I feel somethin' at least
I need somethin' to eat
[Bridge: Daoud]
I'm droppin' pounds, I hear my stomach growl
I'm droppin' pounds, I hear my stomach growl
I'm droppin' pounds, I hear my stomach growl
[Outro: Daoud]
Yeah, fearmonger lurk among us
I done clawed my way up
But that bottom's callin' me down
Slip and I'll drown

In the description of “Fearmonger’s” music video Saba wrote:
At the time of making this record I was beginning to realize how big of a hold fears actually had on me. With big decisions to make, I was never sure if I was doing the right thing. Fearing if I was actually doing enough. I’m saying we’re...
