PERPETUAL DESIRE
You can forget this if you want
[Verse 1]
Imma do my thing you can do your thing
I would do your thing but it's too boring
Play the game with a blindfold, still scoring
Times change, your favorite rappers turn 40
What's it all mean? Who cares?
Desire perpetual, the fire, the festival
The wire, the vestibule
Open sesame streets
The seed, the recipe
The greed, the weaponry
(Woo!)
[Chorus]
Perpetual desire
What else?
What else?
What else?
Perpetual desire
What else?
What else?
What else?
[Verse 2]
Once again:
Hey future, it's the past
You're listening to this and you're having a blast
Or maybe you're not
But you still can't say that the shit's not hot right?
Maybe you can do that too
And if that's the case, then fuckkk you
And if that's not the case then throw your hands up into outer space
Like it just don't matter
Conveniently enough, it just don't matter
You can see me eat it all up
Lick the platter clean
Ask for seconds and wreck it again, nahmean?
Do it for the kids on the first-world grid
Just to tell em let the third world live
Cause the third be the second and the first in the first place
Race one lap: no first place
Go shorty it's your birthday
Do it for your birthplace
Hoe cake dessert trays
Fuck one take, I do no takes
What's it all mean? Who cares?
Desire perpetual, the fire, the festival
The wire, the vestibule
Open sesame streets
The seed, the recipe
The greed, the weaponry
The need to question the answer
The dance, the dancer
The chance banter overheard casually
The actual actually
Sittin in a castle on stolen land
Chiefs get smacked with a open hand
Weak get trashed when they smoke a gram
Everywhere the airplane lands is still Oakland man
K to the O to the O to the ella
Rep the town, still rep Alameda
Still rep SF hella
[Chorus]
Perpetual desire
What else?
What else?
What else?
Perpetual desire
What else?
What else?
What else?
You can forget this if you want
[Beat switch]
Your wrist is signing out (idk what he says lol)
You can forget this if you want
You are protected from all harm
You can forget this if you want
Perpetual desire
What else?
Perpetual desire
Is there anything else?
The rest is just begun
The cutlass and the gun
The feckless and the fun (?)
You can forget this if you want
Perpetual desire
What else?
Perpetual desire
Is there anything else?
Is there anything else?
You can forget this if you want
