Ignoring Sh*t

[Verse 1: Homeboy Sandman]

I step up in a room full of fakes

Pollinate the mood until it takes

Move full of faith

Feel the shift so swift it make your dome spin

Show you nothing fit better than your own skin

I’m a quality over quantity dude

But every number on every ball out the lottery tube has gotta be whose?

People wonder how did he choose?

I don’t force it, when I’m tested ain’t no falses, just trues

That and loose screws

That and smooth moves

That and win wins

Never lose lose

Hear the vroom vroom

Flower petal to the metal full bloom

I ain’t talkin' every once in a blue moon

Can’t nobody do it congruent

I don’t need a hit a marijuana just to clear the conduit

If there was a rock that hit the castle I threw it

If not then I’ma hop to it

In the pursuit of IQ

I left the cave I’m trying to handle all the light

So many rays so every day I gamble wit my life

Impassioned, fearless, puttin' out my feelers, trying to get a bite

I speed right up to 18 wheelers, pass 'em on the right

And still ain’t got the time to strategize

Whatever my location, Satellite

I data analyze

I’m here to shine a lantern on the lies

Illuminate a pattern for a planet on the rise

I’m tuned in to the lows and the highs

I’m tuned in to hellos and goodbyes

Devils sprung to action once they saw me gettin' wise, frickin' spies

"Just a minute king here's a wing here’s a thigh"

Obviously they's all fried

But look at how the time flies

That’s why I had to write it up for BKLYN Combine

Imagine that if everyone in Brooklyn combined

Just think how it would look to break up out the confines

And stop being compliant

I’m inviting all of y’all to come try it

We’ll all become giant

Could hardly trust in anyone we’ve all become biased

I’m reaching out to everyone of y’all that don’t buy it

To do your own science

How we ever gonna please the most high if we the most highest?

Hey

A the triple A to change the blown tires

Flame to light the bonfires

The truth is that the colonizer culture be the culture about the cash

Escape up out the cult and take the culture out the trash

The proof is in the pudding, you the woman or the man so do the math

For stitching up a gash

It’s more than entertainment, quit debating and complaining about the past

And wisen up and rise up to the task

Today it be the Sandman who’s relaying you the lay of the land

And the only thing I’ma do is free whoever I can

[Verse 2: Shad]

Everything I got is God-given

Gotta give it back

If I give my all, whatever happens I’ll live with that

Never cared if they doubt me

Cuz it’s not about me

I just walk devoutly…

When I talk it’s outreach

I am not your mouth piece

I’m the opposite

I’m knocking out teeth

When I kick it I’m Rhonda Rousey ...

Housekeeping!

The beats knocking loudly

Rocking crowds

He’s from Canada but hot as South Beach

Funny how they say they’re the greatest ever

Meanwhile I got more to say and I say it better

Say the truth and I say it clever

The kinda sayings they’ll say forever

These guys say whatever

Go on …

I say what’s really goin' on

Then I go off to keep 'em goin' strong

Cuz a lot’s goin' wrong

My people still worse off

And they won't even read our work or do a workshop

It hurts

Still my purpose is peace

A priest for the poets and a poet for the priests

Not just playing shows

When I’m on the road it’s to make a new lane

I wrote these lines for the streets

Micro to Macro

Quantum to Newtonian

I look at things from every level then step to the podium

I don’t play though, this is Plato’s symposium

I'm dope as opium

It’s dystopian

What I do to the game

I ruined the game

I'm Jordan with the flu in the game

Air Jordan

How I flew in the game

Air Jordans cuz they all feel defeat

Like the shoe in game

I’m in a shoe in

Never losin' the game

Big up UCLA Bruin

Obannon suin' the game on behalf of the students

We ain’t new to the game

Pay us every time you’re viewin' the game or using our names

This is playground hoops with the chains

This is mutual respect in a human exchange

Look

I'm the nicest with the righteous talk

I heard your goats like a flock and they twice as soft

After any line the mic could drop

I fight the ops like a Jedi

Mind tricks to strike and block

Watch my light sabre slice and chop

Like I tied the knot

I’m sayin' I do what these guys cannot

Grateful for the breath in our lungs

At the ame time grieving all the death in the slums

At the same time leadin' so the next can become

A reflection of the light where the blessings are from

Let’s go

Pure as Curry’s J with the curry flavor

Ya’ll in the king’s court should try to curry favor

I'm raw as Ol’ Dirty's Chambers

Don’t make me impersonate the Terminator's worst behaviors

Y’all should probably listen back with the captions

Y’all should probably tip your cap

Lift your hat brim

Only rapper out that probably isn’t cappin'

Just to try to lift sales like a shipping captain

Infinity stones

Infinity jewels

They keep droppin' as I flow

Infinity pools

I’m finna' make humility cool

I could probably make humidity cool
