The beat turned most people off. But hearing it enough time makes it click. And the lyrics are just
The beat is crazy on this. People didn't like it??

It’s not like super unorthodox or anything but compare it to Do Not Disturb which is in the same introspective vein, and might not be as powerful lyrically, but the beat is so undeniably good that it pulls you in.
This beat is a bit of an acquired taste for me. But once it clicked, I loved it.
I got a fear of havin' things on my mind when I die
What you got, time on your hands or time on your side?
Is there any sense in doin' these songs when I'm high?
Is there more to life than goin' on trips to Dubai?
Yachts on the 4th of July, G5 soarin' the skies
Is there more to life than all of these corporate ties
And all of these fortunate times
And all of these asses that never come in proportionate size?
Am I missin' somethin' that's more important to find?
Like healin' my soul, like family time
Is there more to life than just when I'm feelin' alive?
Is there more?

I didn't f*** with the trap/plugg type beats on Scorpion at first. But listening back, I'm Upset, Can't Take A Joke, Mob Ties, Talk Up, all have beats that the melodies are absolutely crazy and no one's made anything like it since.
Bruh I love how current the beats are on Scorpz, it deffo has a more current / mixtape vibe, but glad to see he can have fun on albums like everyone else rather than the ‘higher’ more upped production value ones. I like a mix of both and I feel like CLB might just be that. Like I want a Furthest Thing but also need a Nonstop

The “Is there more to life than just when I'm feelin' alive?” line always makes that verse and the whole song for me.
