[INTRO, spoken / filtered]
[low-pass, building tension]
Everybody wants a piece
Nobody wants to bleed
Everybody’s hand out
Funny how they never feed
[riser → silence]
Yeah…
I see you.
[VERSE 1, FAST RAP – ANGRY, RAW]
They want my energy, time, my soul
My sweat, my heart, my highs, my lows
Smile in my face, but I know that look
Same ones praying when I finally choke
You don’t give love, you loan it out
With interest stacked when you cash it out
Count every favor, weigh every move
Then cry real loud when I’m backing out
You call it hustle, I call it leech
Call it survival, I call it weak
You only good when the cameras on
Soon as they’re gone, you a fucking freak
I gave respect when I got none back
I gave my word and I stood on that
You gave excuses and empty hands
Then wonder why your soul’s still cracked
[PRE-CHORUS, BUILD – CHANTABLE]
Hands out
Eyes cold
Heart gone
Soul sold
You want it all but you give so less
Say “that’s life” like it justifies theft
[snare build]
Say it with me—
[CHORUS, BIG EDM HOOK – CATCHY]
They take, take, take till there’s nothing left
Smile in your face, knife in your chest
I give, I give, I bleed for respect
Funny how the good still paying the debt
They take, take, take — never say thanks
Drain your soul then ask for your strength
End of the night when the lights go dead
All that greed leaves a hollow head
[DROP 1, VOCAL CHOP IDEA]
TAKE — TAKE — TAKE —
[cut]
NOTHING LEFT
[Kick + bass slam, vocal stab repeating “TAKE”]
[VERSE 2, EVEN FASTER / MORE AGGRESSIVE]
You climb with boots on everybody’s neck
Then preach about peace when you hit success
Talk about karma like you immune
But you flinch when the mirror shows who you wrecked
I watched good people get used and bent
Still show love like it’s common sense
While snakes get rich off a lack of shame
Still empty as fuck, still goddamn tense
You flex your wins but you can’t feel joy
Need more, more, more like a broken toy
If greed was gold you’d still be poor
‘Cause nothing you have brings peace, my boy
[PRE-CHORUS 2, STRIPPED – CROWD READY]
Hands out
Mouths full
Still want
More, more, more—
[cut to silence]
Yeah.
[CHORUS, BIGGER, WIDER]
They take, take, take till there’s nothing left
Burn every bridge then blame the mess
I stayed real when it hurt like hell
You stayed fake just to serve yourself
[DROP 2 , HARDER / FESTIVAL MODE]
[Kick + bass only]
TAKE — TAKE — TAKE
[Add lead melody halfway]
[Final bar: everything cuts except crowd chant]
TAKE — TAKE — TAKE
[OUTRO, HALF-TIME / GOOSEBUMPS]
You can have it all
If hollow’s the goal
I’d rather be broke with a heart that’s whole
