Few Good Things

Ziplock

At the time of making this record I was beginning to realize how big of a hold fears actually had on me. With big decisions to make, I was never sure if I was doing the right thing. Fearing if I was actually doing enough. I’m saying we’re embedded with this “irrational fear”. The song takes this concept and kind of turns it slightly abstract by assigning a character to “fearmonger”. I’ve never made a record that sounded anything like this and part of the fun of releasing music is to create worlds sonically and have people trust you to show them around your own imagination. 

"Fearmonger" feat. Daoud

LYRICS
(Saba)
Okay the money on the way it’ll lay by the first 
Adolescence I would curse on the way to the church 
My career just turned to cursive how I connect the words
Ain’t grow up with much of shit but still it coulda been worse 
He ain’t focused on her pants he want get in her purse 
I need it all in advance if they book me to work 
From we barely had a chance left the crib on alert 
To a crib with alarms and security perks 
Insecurity hurts the same way jewelry works 
So if you paying to flex, pay your security first 
No point in paying for whips to ride a funeral hearse 
We be prepared for the best but also fearing the worst 

Okay every nigga that I know is scared of going broke 
I know if I fall back down ain’t no one there to lend me rope 
Okay and every nigga that I know takes care of so and so 
So ain’t no option option option 
You best go make more

(Saba and Daoud)
Cause fearmonger live amongst us 
I feel hunger hunger but guess 
I feel something at least 
I need something to eat 

When fearmonger live amongst us 
I feel hunger hunger but guess 
I feel something at least 
I need something to eat 

(Saba)
And scared money never made money what I was taught 
But once you make money you’ll be more afraid than us all 
My grandfather drove a corvette convertible car
He passed away and left his will to the fate of the stars 
I made a cool mmmmm all for saying a bar 
I was scared to spend a dime like what if I die tomorrow 
Would my fam intervene for a bag of the g’s 
In a black model 3 sheesh passenger seat 
Would my fans leave if I can’t put asses in seats 
If I log out an app or I lack a retweet 
I’m just scared to go back didn’t have shit to eat 
Half my bread go to taxes the actual thieves 

Okay every nigga that I know is scared of going broke 
I know if I fall back down ain’t no one there to lend me rope 
Okay and every nigga that I know takes care of so and so 
So ain’t no option option option 
You best go make more

(Saba and Daoud)
Cause fearmonger live amongst us 
I feel hunger hunger but guess 
I feel something at least 
I need something to eat 

When fearmonger live amongst us 
I feel hunger hunger but guess 
I feel something at least 
I need something to eat 

I’m dropping pounds 
I hear my stomach growl 

I’m dropping pounds 
I hear my stomach growl 

I’m dropping pounds 
I hear my stomach growl 

(Daoud)
Yes fearmonger lurk among us
I done clawed my way up 
But that bottoms callin me down
Slip and I’ll drown

Fearmonger feat. Daoud

LYRICS
(Saba)
Yea
Today some feelings are leaving 
Couldn’t help but feeling mistreated 
They sleep on my shit and then tell me to drop 
I don’t see the reason
My misses run shit like a chief 
Together we getting mischievous 
The bottom is way lonelier than the top 
But these niggas ain’t seen it 
Stop that, stop it please
You more concern what others earn 
That says a lot to me
I turned a million down a million times 
That’s not a lot to me (no)
The game is changing 
I do the best that I can to attain it 
If we gotta gamble I bet on myself 
All that other shit dangerous 
I just made a way for myself 
From out west and my grandmomma basement 
So I think you hoe niggas should 
Bow in the presence of greatness let's go 
Woah
Woah 
Woah 
Woah 
Woah 
Woah 
Woah 
Woah 
Stop that, stop it please 
Stop that, stop it please 
We talking bout generational wealth 
The pressure I built for myself 
For all of the people who pics on my grandmama shelf 
Who heard her say gimme the belt 
I would imagine one day 
Call it manifestation 
A man would get taken away 
We wasn’t planning vacation 
Like internet bandwidth was laggin
This feel like it’s back in day 
Shit is all ours like a captain would say 
Treasure map is a trap and this rap is raft 
Til you back on the ave it’s a matter a fact 
That you gotta protect your neck like a giraffe 
While calendar counting the days 
The days only count if it’s cash 
When you hit the mattress imagine a mansion 
I feel like I’m a mad man amassed in the vein living 
I’m pretending I’m thankful at Thanksgiving 
I just bought a chain you can’t change niggas 
I see all my potential in pain dealing 
With the weight of success and it taste bitter 
Sweet I mean 
You far from yo kin 
You not one of them to them to dim 
Yo light and get grim like a gremlin
It is what it is 
Until feelings switch and then 
Woah
Woah 
Woah 
Woah 
Woah 
Woah 
Woah 
Woah 
Stop that, stop it please 
Stop that, stop it please
