Name: DAYXDAY [S4YM prod. by ruffiankick] by Prowess The Testament
Duration: 4 min 58 s
Description: S4YM explores various sides of working-class politics (Doing what one "GOTTA DO" to get paid) from low earnings & wages, woes of classism, generational poverty, and juggling multiple jobs. The first verse begins with a metaphor on the tremendous spending power of hip hop consumers told from the perspective of the artist and the baton gets passed.

...why? what did the beat do to you to deserve such a beat down. wow

SlothdubzAndRonin [Only One Ronin] - Ennui

Some people find it hard
getting along with their own thoughts
The mind can Frankenstein the worst
Or make the perfect postcard
So far-
From home
Readily known as vacay
But Paradise can only paint the pros
Before the Mayday
*Everything seems fine*
Until you find you live the same day
Repeat without the conflict
You avoided in the first place
Sleep in a bed of roses, but
roses come with thorns
You can find the peace inside,
Just outside the comfort zone


La di da di da
You can smell it on me
My repression, Mild depression
With an air of ennui

La di da di da
Good afternoon, good morning
another day in paradise
Conveniently distorting


You believe me
If I mean it
I said it
They call me the Alfred
That makes you the future
Thats Terry McGinnis
Both feral
And vetted

Not too old to get tested
But Fuck the repetitive
Edit
Put your whole heart in the beat
You embedded in
You got message you gettin
you get in your head
Just to end it kid
Thats why you move
ten steps ahead of it
Make music your medicine
Chew threw the game
Like the venison

Fighting for a life
So I can live in a box
Cut off availability
Afraid to get blocked
Lofty in the sky
But the storm struck different
Rock paper scissors
With the wrong ammunition
Never even factored In anyone's premonition
Simulated systems
Keep on glitchin
Plot twist-
Turns all come unannounced
I gotta shell on my back
In the crib named kami house

VPC7 Round 4

Broken Pixels [Nomad, Equivilent Exchange] - DooWhachuWant (ft. Juvenile)

-Hook-

Message to the 5KYGODD, I give a piece of mind...
I'm so sorry, but I gotta catch a ride and leave this all behind

The 'Clout' is major leagues above the love
So I'm here to give back the gloves
With glassy eyes, I'm here to say goodbye.... 

-Verse 1-
The game put me put in a rough spot 
200% final destination, last stock, hoping I don't plummet and fall to my debt like it was a budget clapping at the end show respect
when it wasn't supposed to happen cappin'
Dually noted when I'm rapping rapping
Even when the 'king dumb' is where the magic happens
It's 1 to 1, the keyboards are click clacking
While the Clout program feed players to their satisfaction,  I've come to terms they're not really lost,  they want to be at the pinpoint of the circle like a ring toss others got their fingers crossed thinking they'd make it to the top by any means necessary even trade others as a cost. 
I'm not here to be a bargaining chip, that be flipped, change sides to the main problems we dealing with, I feel tricked, I don't know who I can trust, life spans be expensive, staying human is a must. 

-Hook 2-

Message to the 5KYGODD, I give a piece of mind...
I'm so sorry, but I gotta catch a ride and leave this all behind

The 'Clout' is major leagues above the love
So I'm here to give back the gloves
With glassy eyes, I'm here to say goodbye.... 

-Verse 2- 
I hope you can hear me out, I'm not the type that will scream and shout, can no longer Stefan the Urkle route,  
on that account, I get past the smoke and mirrors, the wizard at the end are just light fixtures, distorted pictures...
Is this nerdcore, or just a gimmick culture that we pillage nerds for, that's where the feelings tore, from all the bullying and depression under society's selection, I thought this was our safe haven for our protection, but I wrong, 
In ways we are all the same,  impossible to break the chain, when the same mentality still remains, so I understand the gamertags thus far because in the world we don't know who you truly are
Now, understand I'm exhausted, I just wanted to go home 
Try forcing things, its too dangerous to go alone
Filled the bar, and I'm ready to use the Super 
When does Player One get a chance to be Mark [Fk'n] Cooper 

With glassy eyes, I'm here to say goodbye....
