Christian rapper DYP reacts to the announcement of underground rap legend MF DOOM's untimely death. DYP pays homage by spitting a reflective freestyle over MF DOOM's "Potholderz" instrumental.

"I actually had a different track I was going to release on New Year's Day. But New Year's morning, I was laying in bed just thinking about DOOM's death (which they announced the day before), and I started listening to some of his old songs. I always appreciated his unique and eccentric voice, and how he never tried to conform to popular styles or trends. When I came across this beat, I just started freestyling to it, and these are the words that came out of me. I hope you enjoy it and that it blesses you in some way!" - DYP

lyrics

Lyrics:

[Intro: DYP]
I heard DOOM just died, man
MF DOOM
He was only 49 years old
Sad, man
It's just another reminder
Yo

[Verse 1: DYP]
Death is certain, life is not
We're overly concerned with what we got
Materialism
What label are you rockin, what car did he drive off in?
What difference will it make when we're lying in a coffin

One day, you never know when's your last one
It could come from the blast of a handgun
Or any other fashion, it's passing away
So whatchu doin' today?

There's gonna be a moment up in heaven when
Yeshua's gonna ask about this day - whatchu gon say?
Time is precious. Last year, too many left us.
I lift my hands to God praying that He bless us

Father may Your will be done on the earth
As it is in heaven, I know it's not about the works
But we're in service to God so we do it cuz He's worth it
Signing off, DYP, Discover Your Purpose

Yeah, uh
