The Fiends Are Knocking - Hopsin

The fiends are knocking at my door

Should I give them what they’re asking for?

They want it (want it)

Need it (need it), have it (have it)

Woah—oh (woah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Knock Madness

So what the fuck y’all need from me?

I’m here to make these fiends believe

They want it (want it)

Need it (need it), gotta have it (have it)

Woah—oh (woah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Knock Madness

Yeah, I promised you niggas a album

You been patiently waiting, now the day is finally present

I took my time with this shit

I put my mind into every line, 'cause when it’s out I ain’t tryna regret it

Niggas get overhyped and all they hits go stale

Because they shit don’t sell, now that’s a big old fail

But the punch is a lot harder when you clip your nails

Niggas, how you expect to drive when you ain’t get your L’s?

You was the next big thing while I was last

You was poppin' tags while I was mad chillin' in my pad with my rhyming pad

Tryna record with no door so I hear my mom and dad

Arguing upstairs so I gotta wait 'til the drama pass

'Cause my mic be picking that shit up

But I ain’t wanna give up, I’d exhale fast even if I did suck

You want the madness?

Then come and get some

I’m takin' the cake, and all that’s left for y’all is the pieces I bit from

See I ain’t buddy-buddy with rappers because that shit is fake

Most of y’all morals is fucked up, you on a different page

You get no props just 'cause you getting paid

If you garbage we ain’t doing business, point blank, I discriminate

And I don’t do no bullshit collabs to get my name poppin'

That ain’t even considered a safe option

And that just ain’t Hopsin, I paid homage, now I’m straight wilin'

Now turn this shit up while the bass knockin', now c’mon

The fiends are knocking at my door

Should I give them what they’re asking for?

They want it (want it)

Need it (need it), have it (have it)

Woah—oh (woah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Knock Madness

So what the fuck y’all need from me?

I’m here to make these fiends believe

They want it (want it)

Need it (need it), gotta have it (have it)

Woah—oh (woah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

And I be gettin' comments like

«Hop, what’s the hold up with your new shit, man?, you be taking forever son

Yo I’ma stop waiting, I’m getting my hopes up

With your work ethic it ain’t gon' ever come

You had the XXL cover in 2012

And I thought you would soon prevail, but homie, you ain’t doing well

You hit us with that Ill Mind shit and that was cool as hell

But when it comes to your album, you never got no news to tell

Your whole career is just a train wreck

You toured around the world for 3 years, but you always performed the same set

I been asked you to come to my city, but you ain’t came yet

I guess you ain’t in it for love, you just want that pay check

If I was you, then I wouldn’t be too proud

You signed Dizzy not too long ago and he’s bigger than you now

You said you saving hip-hop, well, save this shit

And all I hear is wack niggas and I hate this shit

Homie I stopped being a scrub because of you

I stopped playin' these bitches in the club and fell in love because of you

My dad heard your song and he stopped doin' drugs because of you

I learned to rap and even built a little buzz because of you

But you take it for granted, thinking you have it made

Sittin' back in the shade, Hopsin, there’s people that you have to save

This is beyond music

You speak life into these motherfuckers, Hop, you have a gift, so when you gon'

use it?»

Damn, I have that much of an impact?

My rhymes did that?

Sometimes, I really feel my shit’s wack

That’s why I kick back, but fuck this shit, yo, where my pen at?

I’m 'bout to kill this shit and make niggas just wanna quit rap

I’m causing havoc, layin' the rappers like a hammock

If I want the fucking planet, I can have it, now try to snatch it

Only God can stop my violent habits

You niggas average, I ain’t even in my prime and still I’m twice the savage

The fiends are knocking at my door

Should I give them what they’re asking for?

They want it (want it)

Need it (need it), have it (have it)

Woah—oh (woah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Knock Madness

So what the fuck y’all need from me?

I’m here to make these fiends believe

They want it (want it)

Need it (need it), gotta have it (have it)

Woah—oh (woah)
