[Chorus: Eedee]
I do what I must, because I have to,
And if you get in my way, you're gonna make me snap you.
I do what I must, because I have to,
So if I really do snap you, after that I finally half two.
I do what I must, because I have to,
I come through in the clutch, driving fast right past you.
We do what we must, because we have to,
I know it's stupid as such, but sneeze, fucker, like ATCHOO!

[Verse 1: Mat Demaz]
I deliver some motherfucken words for your brain
the more you fuckers piss me off I give you all more pain
all you bitches get mad aw poor thangs
so line up to test me and be apart of the gore train
I'm taking names and I'm ready to kick ass
you suckers better catch up when I spit fast
I'll grab you all by the head and throw you through thick glass
the beat is pumping yeah let that shit blast
I don't need you near me man just go
you have this girl that you care about and love so
I ain't playing around I'm just letting you cunts know
that ya'll better sit down whenever I bust flows
you don't like how I rap well then fuck you
I destroyed you all of your goons ran outta luck too
now I know I should be vigilant when I trust dudes
but life goes on I gotta do what I must do

[Chorus]

[Verse 2: Eedee]
I'm spinnin' yarns like a kitty-kat with a pen,
Shit doesn't make Cents like Fiddy asked it again,
I spit ill like vomit pretty fast, pissing in
a cup, fill it up, it's a wrap, spittin' ends.
.............. Why the long faces?
Probably cuz this rapper guy is caucasion.
If you want good rap, you spy in wrong places,
Stare me down and see that my eyes are not blazing?
That's a downright fucking lie, cuz the fire inside,
Will not die from the ire that just vibes from you guys.
I won't hide from the lies, cuz I embrace the hate,
So my future bars will make the haters chased away.
So draw the ace of spades, while I shuffle the deck,
Color your neck red while you struggle with death!
Just buckle yourself, cuz you asked for a ride,
Let's get this motherfucker started with Demaz at my side!

[Chorus]


[Verse 3: Eedee]
I keep pacing sometimes, figuring out what's best,
I need strength to just fly, but now what's next?
I mean, I got my flows, and I got the beats,
I write my shit, then I'm off the sleep.
I mean, I hold the pen, I smoke 'em then,
Pick out my next Targets like an open ring.
I do what I must, cuz I wanna survive,
But the game is a jungle and I've fared it couple of times.
I got no trouble of mine, while I struggle a rhyme,
Maybe I need write something from nothing and spit it double it's time?
Nah, I'll slow down and spell it out for you,
D-O-P-E-S-T M-C, now it's true.
How you do? Me? I'm doing just fine,
I love my life, people say "sup guy?
I heard you're a rapper" and they're god damned right,
But I thought I was wack? Man, I lost that fight.

[Chorus]

Look inside my heart and what you'll find is death,
Took it's time like bark upon the pine of self
To grow into what I fucking feel today,
This fucking secret, FUCK, it's so real it's fake!
I can peel the scrapes, from when I ate the shit,
I fell so hard on my face, but I ain't the kid,
To stay down when I fall, I got up with vengeance,
This is what happens when I say "fuck detention!"
Bitch, suck my ten-inch you fuckin' bunch of tenants,
fuck outta my brain, you need luck to get in.
I need skill to recieve it, and be killed to breathe it,
These hills spell peril but won't I won't stop till we're even.
Nah I won't stop, you need to catch your breath?
It's funny, when I lapped you, you were left for dead.
I'm sick of being shadowed, I'm fed up with it,
I'll keep going on my way cuz I have stuff to spit.
Oh, you don't like me? Get a friend. Fuck you prick,
I'd highly recommend you fucking suck my dick.
Bitch, swallow your pride and get off your high horse,
I'm hollow inside, which means you're off the right course,
Which in turn means I was successful in plan,
Cuz you're blowing out hot air like you swallowed a vent and,
Next man to test me gets his fucking face split,
Just face the consequences when you tell me I ain't shit.
These bombs I'ma place 'em in some random fucking places,
Watch them blow up in some random fucking faces.
It's amazing ain't it? Where I got in a few months,
It's too much to bear? When you told me I couldn't do much?
Look at me now, we're only 29 bars in,
And you're still at the first four figuring out what I called in.
Shhh, it's a secret, and you really wanna know?
Nah, I don't think you can keep it, I gotta go.

[Verse 1]
I'ma get revenge for nothing less than you owe me,
Cuz us two have a history like Hector Zeroni.
Better destroy me, motherfucker, before I punch holes,
In your brain, gimme brain, yeah swallow my nuts whole.
Why cut throats when you can choke 'em just as fine?
Hold this line.... justice time!
What I'm doing here is going back to the basics,
Grab it, I take this from the faggots that ain't shit.
I paid respects and I've paid my dues,
I gave my best just to make me lose.
Rap takes me to, the fucking place I do,
Am I phasing you? Now hear me raise the roof!
My wasted youth is what it seems to you,
Bleeding too? No - so go and taste the truth!
How's the crow taste? Your face, nothing's showing,
I'm bound to blow places up, cuz I'm going...

[Chorus]
Back to the basics, lyrics in faces,
Of the haters who can't lift a pen from the paper.
I'ma hurt you now, cuz you put me down,
How come you faggots wanna push me out?
Back to the basics, lyrics in faces,
Of the haters who can't lift a pen from the paper.
You fuckers asked for this now I'm back to spit,
Make you maggots bow down to my ass to kiss!

[Verse 2]
You know who you are, I hope you eat your words,
Wait a minute, no I don't, I wanna beat you first!
Ain't gonna keep me hurt, I'm gonna see you burn,
Humiliation at it's best like a teeny skirt.
Please get crapped while you dream like bed sheets,
Plus I feel like sheet cuz my sheet's gettin' slept on.
You saw my thread and skip on to the next song,
That's your plea to get fucked up and get some.
Come here and get some, rhymes, you get some of it,
So intricate as fuck that actually you get none of it.
It is what it is, I'm on the verge of not giving,
A single fuck, so get fucked, but actually I'm livid!
I don't work my ass off to have my hard work scrapped,
Cuz last is first, an inverse, a shard first, AHHH!
It hurts, for fuck sake! Plus they blame you,
Not quick on the uptake, so let me take you...

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Punk, I'm above you like I'm behind you in theatre seats,
You need to learn manners, but me? I don't need a please.
To totally destroy everything that you stand for,
Your Dodge doesn't have horns, horsepower? I have torque.
Hit the gas more, try to catch up to that score,
Won't open your cat door? Pussy slut, you're a bad whore.
*Whoop me butt! Oh yeah, rope it shut!
Cum in your open cunt, yes, soak it up!
Stand in awe of my lyrical prowess,
Can it, whore! You want a miracle? How's this?*
So I hope you get the point that I'm trying to make,
Maybe you're just jealous cuz you're eying my place.
Blind to face it, but I can't kinda taste it,
Some of you probably think that my life is wasting.
But I disagree cuz hip hop is my passion,
Otherwise I wouldn't be here honestly rapping.
My cup is half-full, and don't you spill it,
I'll attack combatants with raps until I kill it!

[Intro]
It feels like...
almost as if...
we've been going round and round
and we're now just gettin' dizzy.
I don't know...
We're always in this place, huh?
I think we need to break this.
Whaddya say?

[Chorus]
I think it's time for us to say good-byeee
We've been at this for so long that it feels like,
There's no knowing and there's no stopping,
I feel so awful inside because we keep talking.
And I'm drawn to you like a flies to fruit,
You and me analogous of lies to truth.

[Verse 1]
I've been eying you for quite some time now,
Like one cry shouts in fights but I pout.
What's this all about, as I fall to ground,
You ask me if I love you, well, this ball is round?
Of course it fucking is, don't make me tell you again,
You just wanna be friends? Do you relish the end?
I'd freeze Hell to pretend that I'm okay with this shit,
That's like me showing no emotion in my face when I spit.
it's like nails on a chalkboard, the way that you got bored,
Playing games like a top score, now it's all awk-woard.
Kinda like how I said that, are you sniffing my paint?
You catching my drift? Are you hitting my face?
Cuz that's what it feels like, climbing these hills, right?
With you by my side, oh wait, I'm alone when I kill mics.
when I need you the most, you aren't there to com-fort,
Backstabber of the year, c'mon baby, just come forth.

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
I bend the light, till there's no end in sight,
We're just barely friends, so stop pretending right.
Stop sending my mind these hateful lies,
I'm thankful that you think that I'm ungrateful, right?
You know I hate bullshit, so cease the spew,
You caused me this pain, I HOPE YOU FEEL IT TOO!
Eat your words, hey, bitch're you swallowing?
Here's your choices, so pick from which of the following:
Come near the voices and tell me you love me,
Or hurt me more and just yell that I'm ugly!
Your siren song haunts me and imprints the pain,
You don't get to stay cuz I'm an inch away,
I wanna hit your face, night's long, tired tonight,
Could not pay you to love me like we were hired to fight.
Cuz that's all we do between the laughs and tears,
We turn our back to fear, for over half the year...

[Chorus]

[Mr.DGAF]

What I Must Do
Good start, beat is nice. The lyrics are obviously nice, you're definitely a good writer. Demaz's verse is ehh, voice slipped up in a couple parts, flow was iffy. Like, it was pretty basic and solid for the most part, but sometimes you held a word or stretched it to make it stay on beat. Eedee, the chorus is really nice. Flows quite well on the beat, no complaints there. The verses are nice as well, I didn't like the part where the beat stopped, it seemed to abrupt. But the flow is really nice, breath control is pretty solid too. Other than the one stop, I liked the beat. This was pretty solid, I'd give it a 7/10.

Secret
I liked this more than the first track. Flow is on point except for one line where it goes off a little bit, I think the line was "These hills spell peril but I won't stop till we're even." It just sounds a bit off to me. There were maybe two instances where I thought the mixing wasn't too great, as in I thought your voice got softer ormore quiet. But only a few times. Other than that, the spitting is very good. I think maybe twice I heard you inhale perhaps a little too loudly, but that wasnt too much of a problem. I'd give this 7.5/10.

Back to the Basics
I like the delivery on this one, a little bit harder than the previous two. Again, beat's pretty chill, and you do it justice. Flow is nice, the chorus kind of slips in flow a bit, like sometimes it pauses and it sounds kind of random when it does. But the verses are really nice, the flow doesn't really ever slip. I think the vocals are a little low on this one, though. The lyrics are on point though, nothing to complain about there. I'd say this one is a 7.5/10 as well.

Goodbye
Not feeling the singing to be honest haha. The beat is awesome, and I got a really good vibe from it. But the singing dude, I just wasn't feeling it.The delivery is good, sometimes your voice fluctuates in intensity and volume. The lyrics again are nice, flow is solid throughout. I'd say this is a 6.5/10

Sorry if the feed is lackluster haha, I'm still figuring the technicalities of recording out so I can only comment on what I hear and my personal opinion.

[SG.]

I'll download now. BTW, did you use that beat I sent you? If it doesn't suit you, I can send you a better one.

[Eedee]

@ Zabe - Hope you enjoy the tracks, man. And yes, I got your beat. I really didn't like it that much :\ I did, however, like the other one we did. Perhaps I'll re-record that one tonight! You okay with this?

@ DGAF - Wow, thanks for the in-depth feed! Certainly isn't "lackluster"... As for What I Must Do and the beat stopping, I was going for incongruous humor there... like "what the fuck...?" you know? The beat didn't stop when I got it, I added it in there... so no points taken off from the producer if you didn't like the beat. Just to be sure of that. For Secret, this is probably my favorite track I did on this one. I'll try to work on the inhaling away from the microphone as much as possible! Back to the Basics... shit, now that I hear it in a fully awake state, this vocals are a bit too low... FUCK. Especially on such a "hard" track... well fuck a duck. Just turn up the volume lol. Goodbye... yeah. My singing. Em sings terrible on You're Never Over (I personally don't mind it , but popular opinion on TR... lol) but his verses are insane. *shrugs*

Thanks for the feed!

[ShAdYTiLIDie]

YESSS!! this should be dope I will check it out later and feed!

[Eedee]

^ Thanks man! Hope you enjoy.

[ShAdYTiLIDie]

Okay, Do what I must was a really catchy song, I liked the beat and the hook a lot! some of mdmaz's flow seemed off but it was still good, to me your flow was on point the whole time from what I could tell lol. Obviously great lyrics!
Secret- First of all I love RiseFromTheAshez beats so that was great! and your verse really did the beat justice if you know what I mean, I felt like you flowed really good through the whole time besides like one part at the very end which was hardly noticeable. The Multis on that were killer that part really stood out to me, I especially liked how on sometimes you rhyme one full line with another full line which is really hard to do but it sounds awesome!
Back to the Basics-Very Great track, I liked the accents in the last verse kind of reminds me of Relapse! ha, pretty creative, the beat was really good, The hook was pretty catchy too! Once again great job!
and good bye- I think you have the singing voice of Em haha! besides the singing part it was really great and I think the singing even added a unique touch to it I guess. its a good emotional track and pretty creative with the lyrics! overall this is really dope dude! I'll definitely be looking forward to your next drop.

P.S. I know my feedback does nothing but tell you good job cause I dont have much knowledge of all of this stuff yet but still Way to go

[Eedee]

Obviously you listen to Eminem/rap, so I appreciate you giving me props! I must be doing something right if you're enjoying these drops.

However, I do have shit to work on, obviously. Not claiming I'm perfect. But it's still nice to know my work is appreciated!

[mdemaz]

I was actually really struggling on that beat, it was too slow...
Plus Eedee forgot to mix the last half of my vocals separately so it was off-beat...

I'm not happy with the performance, then again, I didn't think it was gonna be on an EP.

XD

[SG.]

@Eedee Go for it! I've got other beats in the stash if you need more.

[Eedee]

@Eedee Go for it! I've got other beats in the stash if you need more.

Ight. Just found the beat/lyrics, so I'll rerecord here. It's 2 AM, so please disregard any mistakes haha. I'll do my best though.

edit: Emailed you the mp3 version of it!
