[Intro: Saba]

Mm, mm, mm

[Verse 1: 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 could've been worse

He ain't focused on her pants, he wan' 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 payin' to flex, pay your security first

No point in payin' for whips to ride a funеral hearse

We bе prepared for the best, but also fearin' the worst

[Pre-Chorus: Saba]

Okay, every nigga that I know is scared of goin' 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

[Chorus: Daoud & Saba]

'Cause fearmonger live amongst us

I feel hunger, hunger

But guess I feel somethin' at least

I need somethin' to eat

'Cause fearmonger live amongst us

I feel hunger, hunger

But guess I feel somethin' at least

I need somethin' to eat

[Verse 2: Saba]

And scared money never made money—what I was taught

But once you made money, you 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 mm-mm off of sayin' 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 logout 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

[Pre-Chorus: Saba]

Okay, every nigga that I know is scared of goin' (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

[Chorus: Daoud & Saba]

'Cause fearmonger live amongst us

I feel hunger, hunger

But guess I feel somethin' at least

I need somethin' to eat

'Cause fearmonger live amongst us

I feel hunger, hunger

But guess I feel somethin' at least

I need somethin' to eat

[Bridge: Daoud]

I'm droppin' pounds, I hear my stomach growl

I'm droppin' pounds, I hear my stomach growl

I'm droppin' pounds, I hear my stomach growl

[Outro: Daoud]

Yeah, fearmonger lurk among us

I done clawed my way up

But that bottom's callin' me down

Slip and I'll drown
