What did you think of the lyricism on Survival?

There were a lot of weak points. I pretty much skip the second verse when I listen to the song. BUT THE SECOND VERSE IZ PERFECTTTT....I know stan, I know.

"From the beginning, it wasn't 'bout the ends
It was 'bout busting raps and standing for something, fuck an acronym
Cut the fucking act like you're happy, I'm fucking back again
With another anthem, why stop when it doesn't have to end?
It ain't over 'til I say it's over – enough when I say enough

"This is it, it's what you eat, sleep, piss and shit
Live, breathe, your whole existence just consists of this
Refuse to quit, fuse is lit, can't diffuse the wick
I don't do this music shit, I lose my shit
Ain't got shit to lose, it's the moment of truth
It's all I know how to do, as soon as I get thrown in the booth, I spit"

Lines like that give me hope for the new album. That being said, the album has to be a lot better than this song to be a good album. If we get 15 survival quality songs, it will be Recovery part 2.

I've been lurking around this forum for awhile and just recently joined but I have to 2nd (or more like 5th) that EmBase is a good poster!

Also anyone complaining about him saying "butt" in the song probably didn't pay much attention to the lines.

"I ain't taking a bow, I'm stabbing myself
With a fucking knife in the gut, while I'm wiping my butt!
Cause I just shitted on the mic, and I like getting cut
I get excited at the sight of my blood, you're in a fight with a nut!"

Is that not some Shady shit right there? Come on

Mocking hypothetical stan that would yell at me for not thinking 100% of the song was perfect.

I just like the fact that he didn't have any corny ass lines, like he's been having recently. Well, maybe Achoo then Achieve, but even that wasn't that bad imo
