Eighties
(Intro: Ty Dolla $ign) (Smooth, layered vocal harmonies with a heavy, distorted West Coast bassline) Ooh, yeah... Dolla $ign... It’s a long way down, yeah But we still climbin', we still reachin' for it... (Rhythmic panting in the background, DMX-style: Grrr... Arf! Arf!) (Verse 1: DMX Style) (Beat switches to a hard-hitting, aggressive 90s-style orchestral loop) STOP! Drop! Shut 'em down, open up shop! I don’t want a snack, I want the Big Mac, make it hot! Talkin' 'bout the hunger, the fire in my soul I’m a Christian, baby, God got full control! I was lost in the kennel, now I’m barkin' at the moon Every time I stumble, He’s sweepin' up the room! I don't need a favor, I don't need a hand-out I stand on the Rock, that’s how I stand out! WHAT?! You think it’s luck? It’s the Glory! Every scar on my back is a part of the story! Arf! Arf! (Chorus: Ty Dolla $ign) (Beat softens, heavy reverb, melodic and silky) Throw it up, let it fly, it’s an alley-oop Blessings fallin' down, yeah, they loop-de-loop I’m just tryna live my life, keep it true for you Everything I do, yeah, I do for you... From the Big Mac dreams to the golden light Keep me Christian, keep me livin' right Yeah, yeah... (Verse 2: DMX & Ty Dolla $ign) (DMX rapping aggressively, Ty providing melodic ad-libs) DMX: I’m lookin' at the rim, I’m lookin' at the sky! (Ty: So high...) DMX: I catch the alley-oop, I don’t even gotta try! (Ty: No, I don't try...) DMX: Faith like a mountain, move it out the way I’m a soldier for the Lord, what more can I say? Ty: (Melodic bridge) And even when the world gets cold... DMX: I STAY BOLD! I STAY TEN TOES DOWN! Ty: You wear the crown... DMX: I’m just a dog in the manger, lookin' for the light I’m eatin' at the table, finish every bite! Big Mac energy, yeah, the meal is complete Because a Christian man never knows defeat! GRRRRRRRRRR! (Outro: Ty Dolla $ign) It’s an alley-oop... Yeah, we goin' up... Dolla $ign... Dark Man X... Keep the faith, baby. (Fades out with a final DMX bark and a smooth Ty Dolla $ign falsetto) Would you like me to generate an image of what the album cover for this collaboration would look like?
