(mean)
thought i had everything, lost it all in a blink of an eye
don't know what the future brings, nothing's forever. not even you and i
i think back to the times when i was hustlin’ from ten to ten, day to day for the dough
now i'm sittin’ back on the internet, where the money at, piling in the debt, hunting jobs on the low, so where'd the time go, it’s about time i put some money in the bankroll
put in work, get to cookin’ for the damn dough
i'm sick of sittin’ doing nothing for the cashflow
i ain't mad though, but i'm mad broke
man i feel the heat, gotta feed the need, shower in defeat ‘cause
cash rules everything around me, indeed. i'm a slave to the money, i'm lost indeed. bleak
so have pity on me
i have worked all day
but i don’t got your money,
no i don’t got your money
i have worked all day
so have pity on me
but I don’t got your money,
no I don’t got your
but give it a minute or two
i’m livid, inflicted remembering you, and the words you said
and the pounding all-surrounding sounda all the hollow dreams
that you played in my head, too
as a kid i’ll admit that was all i had, picture it, in my bed, measuring up to that
genius perfect millionaire whizkid
prodigy royalty billion dollar salary
but I’m big now, none of that came true though
doin’ nothing i coulda been really meant to
that really needs me, my degree, expertise,
every duty that i do, i coulda used a damn machine
and I’m sorry my wallet, don’t meet your success
you know i count every dollar, and i’m feelin the stress
and the value, that i thought to, possess was you, your illusion. ‘cause i’m not all that.
so have pity on me
i have worked all day
but i don’t got your money,
no i don’t got your money
i have worked all day
so have pity on me
but I don’t got your money,
no I don’t got your

Made up of weish and din, the pair started out in late 2012 as a passion project and shared hobby.

I'm heading to Singapore in January, so I was looking up some local music to get me hyped up. I was pretty surprised when I tripped over this record - the production is gritty and angular without coming off abrasive and the vocalist kicks a ton of ass. One of the best records I've come across this year. Tomás Ford
