Wants & Needs

Dagnabbit dagnabbit yeah I'm back at it
Dagnabbit dagnabbit yeah I'm back at it
Always up to no good with these bad habits
Not doing what I could cuz these bad habits
So what you living for your wants and needs huh
So what you living for your wants and needs huh
So what you living for your wants and needs
Are you living to survive or are you all for greed huh

Back at it back at it yeah I'm back at it
Bad day I consider it a bat practice
All nighter I aint gotta take a nap at it
Shed gone bad not mad we relaxed craftsmen
Show cracked but the star rapped whack at it
That happened nobody noticed for shit
And they wasn't on lean they were sober as shit
Some people know dope some fold and submit
Never knowing that they're holding resent until their lines crossed
Then they either hold pride or they slide off
What's the difference tween wants and needs
If you didn't have both you'd be lost indeed

See I want to but a few estates
But I need to pay my phone bill just to communicate
When thinking like a human being accordingly
It's more than a challenge to balance your priorities
Affording to record on the mic
Cuz I love not like what I'm doing with my time
I write for the people and the right to their legacy
And those deprived of necessities
They never see the light of day they need an outlet to blow up
It's in my needs to express or I go nuts
They don't want us to stay sane
But I need this music just for me to maintain

So what you living for wants and needs huh
What you living for wants and needs huh
What you living for wants and needs
Are you living to survive or are you all for greed huh

Ideally I would love to festively
But I'm caught between my want's and necessity's
Like should I feel bad for wanting more for myself
When there's mufuckas out here hoarding the wealth
Objects help us forget that we born into hell
But we gotta expand to something more than ourself
Shit is more than some kicks and its more than a belt
It's kids dying trying to get over that border for real
Or a mother with a family can't afford them a meal
Think of that any time you get caught in the mill
What's the difference between the wants and the shit you need
How much self indulgence til it gets to greed

What's the difference between me and you
Is it that I live in the mission and you live in bayview
The bay coo but I wanna get to know the globe
I wanna roam but I need to stay to protect my home
I wanna zone but I need to be in the terrordome
Hella blown college collectors blow up my telephone
Seems like I'm gonna be indebted until I'm hella grown
I need a career and I want the shed to be hella on
Gone with the wind while they profit again
I need a bucket and a ten I want an ounce and a benz
I need a blunt that's bars puff puff pass it round to my friends
I wanna drive my car bumping dilla till the world ends
