The Mighty DR - Expectations lyrics

[Intro] Man, sometimes when you ask for the most basic things. It's Almost like you're asking for too much. Is it really a crime to Ask for good music, good women, good friends? Sometimes You don't wanna settle for less.. you just want what you Want. Nothing more, nothing less [Verse 1] The other day I heard a song from my favorite group Shameful how they were basically chasing loot They replaced all the sample-based breaks and loops With cheap keyboard beats, it was disgraceful dude I had to face the truth, it ain't the 90's Brothers were grimey, tough acts to follow I tried listening but all my favorite rappers They made a transition into acting and fashion models Damn, who ain't trying to be Denzel? Who just wanna express the music within self? Who wanna be a true musician? See a few fists in the air screaming “yeah” from the few dudes listening Artists who were truly cherished are now perishing The ones left are generic embarra**ments That ain't arrogance, yo I'm speaking as a fan Anybody with a decent pair of speakers understands I just wanna hear a lyricist k**ing it, period He ain't gotta change f**ing lives man I'm serious, dope rhymes over sick production is all I really ask for Cut and dry [Hook] Give me something I feel, good music is all I ask for Something authentic, genuine, real That's all I really need, I won't ask for more As long as I just get the basics, that's just my expectations That's just my, that's just my, that's just my expectations [Verse 2] The other night I was talking to a female a**ociate Openly and honestly ‘cause we're real and closely knit We discussed how relationships falter And how some of our friends have raced to the alter She glanced down at the ring on my hand And asked “Supa, would you wanna be single again” I said some of these girls, they forgot what being ladies means I rather be shot than be back on the dating scene She heard my answer and laughed, I replied "What chance do I have when they're lacking the basic things Taking pics with their hands on their a** dressed scantily clad That's the woman that I make my queen?" I guess I'm just an old school graduate that admits A certain way of thinking is inadequate That ain't the wavelength I function on I'm not impressed with how many pair of Dunks you on I'm not impressed with your measurements I'm not impressed with you in a flick kissing your girl pretending to be lesbian I'm not impressed with how many superstars tweeted you Or what you do in bed, let's keep it between me and you I don't mean to sound condescending, I'm just telling you My kind of women, that's my personal right Nothing unbecoming, I just want a humble woman Who loves God and her personal life but it is too much to ask? [Hook]
