Man, sometimes when you ask for the most basic things. Itâs almost like youâre asking for too much. Is it really a crime to ask for good music, good women, good friends? Sometimes you donât wanna settle for less. you just want what you want. Nothing more, nothing less.
The other day I heard a song from my favorite group shameful, how they were basically chasing loot
they replaced all the sample-based breaks and loops with cheap keyboard beats, it was disgraceful dude
I had to face the truth. it ainât the 90âs
brothers were grimey touch acts to follow
I tried listening but all my favorite rappers
they made a transition into acting and fashion models damn! who ainât trying to be Denzel?
who just wanna express the music within self?
who wanna be a true musician? see a few fists in
the air screaming âyeahâ from the few dudes listening. artists who were truly cherished are now perishing the ones left are generic embarrassments
that ainât arrogance, yo Iâm speaking as a fan anybody with a decent pair of speakers understands
I just wanna hear a lyricist killing it, period
he ainât gotta change fucking lives
man, Iâm serious... dope rhymes over sick production is all I really ask for cut and dry
Give me something I feel, good music is all I ask for Something authentic, genuine, real.
Thatâs all I really need, I wonât ask for more
As long as I just get the basics, thatâs just my expectations Thatâs just my, thatâs just my, thatâs just my expectations
The other night I was talking to a female associate openly and honestly âcause weâre real and closely knit we discussed how relationships falter
and how some of our friends have raced to the alter she glanced down at the ring on my hand
and asked âSupa, would you wanna be single againâ
I said some of these girls, they forgot what being ladies means
I rather be shot than be back on the dating scene
she heard my answer and laughed, I replied
what chance do I have when theyâre lacking the basic things taking pics with their hands on their ass
dressed scantily clad. thatâs the woman that I make my queen?
I guess Iâm just an old school graduate that admits
a certain way of thinking is inadequate
That ainât the wavelength I function on
Iâm not impressed with how many pair of Dunks you on
Iâm not impressed with your measurements
Iâm not impressed with you in a flick kissing your girl pretending to be lesbian
Iâm not impressed with how many superstars tweeted you
or what you do in bed, letâs keep it between me and you
I donât mean to sound condescending, Iâm just telling you my kind of women, thatâs my personal right.
nothing unbecoming, I just want a humble woman
who loves God. and her personal life but it is too much to ask?
Give something I feel, a true woman is all I ask for. Something authentic, genuine, real.
Thatâs all I really need, I wonât ask for more
As long as I just get the basics, thatâs just my expectations Thatâs just my, thatâs just my, thatâs just my expectations
