I could really give a damn of what people say
insecurity's getting in their way
when I take a look around at the world we live in
it's a shame it's like a game we're just trying to win
It's a competition, yeah
It's a competition
If you don't pay it no mind
somebody's gonna rob you blind
man you better listen
Go and make a move put ya' money in motion
mighty dollar, mighty dollar, put ya trust and devotion
but if you start to look around, to see what's goin' on
maybe we would realize what we're doing is wrong
It's a competition, yeah
It's a competition
If you don't pay it no mind
somebody's gonna rob you blind
man you better listen
Only thing about waitin' for a problem to show up
it's more like waitin' on a bomb to blow up
time is passin', runnin' fast, spinning out of control
but the only thing we care about is diamonds and gold
It's a competition, yeah
It's a competition
If you don't pay it no mind
somebody's gonna rob you blind
man you better listen

I know this album is quite good because my biggest complaint is that most of the tracks are too 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘵. Also that the sidechain compression on the kick is cheesy. But this is otherwise a fire take on funk from a collab made in heaven. 70/100 dww256
