Twentywanting Lyrics by Token Genius

Twentywanting

2021

[Intro]
Audio postcard
Greetings from, the real shore
Jerz!

[Verse 1]
I want to stop making excuses
For dreams that should be plans and plans that have fallen through since
I first reached adulthood- compromise, it's all good
'Till real life becomes more of a burden than a nuisance
"Follow your dreams" talk starts to sound like "Bring the noose in"
Career suicide when you try to meet loose ends
The plot thickens but your pockets getting too slim
You penny-pinch while those with good intentions give their two cents
Keep the change, I want pеople to show true interеst
And not have to ask about what I'm currently doing
Two jobs, neither of which I planned on pursuing
Remove pride and just do what it takes to keep it moving
Love is blind, must be why I'm still rapping/producing
Feeling my way out of my feelings and drastic mood shifts
In younger days my writing garnered praise so effusive
Guess I work harder when it's elusive

[Chorus]
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now

[Verse 2]
I want to truly make some connections
Make sure my loved ones know they're loved, 'cause time is precious
My gratitude could use gratuitous correction
Much as I do expenses, I should be counting blessings
Lord knows I'm too cool with moving like a skeptic
When plans fall through, I move to the defensive
Mechanism- "Of course, this is what I expected"
A method when it's not cool to publicly express it
I guess it's been this way since 'round '97
Auntie moved us out of Newark for better life projections
On a roll with honor roll, did well with academics
The learning curve was harder though establishing some friendships
Probably why I'm single, I wanna show more affection
Heartbreak hotel, I never checked in
Emotionally vacant? Pshh, some ladies could slay me in a second
What's a bachelor pad without contestants? Ha

[Chorus}
(What do you want?) I want 'em all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now

[Bridge]
What do you want? A good question indeed
Your ego can plant the most deceptive of seeds
'Till you grow green with envy, so you're best to take heed
Shall I proceed? Ha
Pavlov's dog slobbing, we're conditioned for greed
When Maslow told us everything that we need
The answer's getting simpler to me

[Verse 3]
Living like a vegetable just can't be what's next
I want the fruits of my labor before they're rampant with pests
Ain't no casket for two, I have to stand and accept
Things fall around me, then I'll stand for myself

[Chorus]
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
(What do you want?) I want it all
(When do you want it?) I want it now
