Wants Vs Needs

[CHORUS]

Forgetting the things you want

Versus getting the things that you need

And tell me how bad do you want it

And tell me how much of it's greed

[ABSTRACT RUDE]

You want wine

And need water

These rhymes we offer

The kind of authors

To knock ya' out of ignorance

End of the innocence

Begin to the finishing

With the men significant

Welfare recipients

Tragic

Addicts with a bad habit

Somebody's baby's momma

At the Carter

In the new jack city

Oh what a pity

This again locked up

For soliciting

Oldest profession

The men buy

So it's selling

You want pork

Need veggies

For your bone support

Be ready for armageddi

Hold the fort down

Go through the court trial

Get acquitted

Be committed

To the sacrifice

It's a lotta pie

Ab get a slice

[CHORUS]

And tell me how bad you want it

And tell me how much of it's greed

Forgetting the things that you want

Versus getting the things that you need

And tell me how bad do you want it

And tell me mow much of it's greed

Forgetting the things that you want

Versus getting the things that you need

[MIKAH 9]

Right about now

A nigga Drunk

Been smoking

Some ole janky

Rolled stress blunts

I want skunk

I really want my baby momma cunt

She kick it with punks

When I know a family man

What she want

Bitch made niggas

On the rag

Every month

I should just punt fools

Like footballs

My goals to make you look

Yo I could call some stunts

>From porno industries

Or get some from

In the streets

Shady heat

That's meant for me

But what I want

And what I need

Should be about me

And my seeds

Cause sometimes

I have flashbacks

Of chopping crack

And weed

Moving X and LSD

Having sex

With more than 3

Busting checks

For 50 gees

Cashing checks

And pushing keys

Vexed and connects

With the greed

I process

Take the rolex off your wrist

Take the roladex off your desk

But in the long run

I'm a strong son

Those klepto days done

My life reflects

Universal

Cause and effect

In every action

I'm sorry my karma

Ran over your dogma

Loved one

Don't be upset

We can still pop a bottle

Then we can get lit up and wet

The common ground

Is the love

We all express

Whoever got a problem

With that

Deserves what they get!

[CHORUS]

Forgetting the things that you want

Versus getting the things that you need

And tell me how bad do you want it

And tell me how much of it's greed

Forgetting the things that you want

Versus getting the things that you need

[ACEYALONE]

Man

I want money

I need food

I want clothes

I need housing

I want cars

I need good health

I need knowledge of self

I got knowledge of self

I want peace

But I need help

I want to do right

But I need the mic

I want wings

But they gave me a bike

I need light

I want the blacks to know

They need the facts

I want a Cadillac

But I need tracks

To make stacks

I want a million in the bank

And a pound of dank

But I need to think

Cause I could sink

And get caught up

In the funk stank

I want to pull rank

But I need to be a saint

And so I need a prayer

And after that

I need a drink

Cause I want to be

Wanted need

To be needed

But I want to stay

blunted

And need to be

weeded

For my own goodness sake

I want to escape

But I need to set you straight

So tell me how bad do you want it

Punk

And tell me

How much of it's greed

Versus

Getting the things that you want

Pumpkin

Or getting the things that you need

Sucker
