[CunninLynguists - Get Ignorant lyrics]
You try to get success directly
But there is one to destroy us
Sometimes the way is of need
Perhaps you may get ignorant
Do I gotta get ign'ant and show
My pigment on the job
Slap the darkest part of my hand across jaws
These days and times with jobs hard to find
You gotta work a salt mine
Or work an assault 9
Most folks barely staying afloat
Through proper channels
And think the rich sit with
Black candles and slaughter mammals
And run the globe with mind
Control and designer sandals
But life's a skinny bitch
It's a struggle to get a handle
I'm about to just break bad
Like Malcolm's dad
Be Meth Boyardee with a lab and a yellow cab
So I can get my picket
Fenceand and yellow lab
That American Dream makes me
Wake up and scream that consist of old money
Buying shiny new things
That I'm about to break as
I'm creating a scene
You can use as an anthem for Kanye's tantrums
Cause, I'm about a thumb and
A finger away from snapping, dAMN
You try to get success directly
But there is one to destroy us
Sometimes the way is of need
Perhaps you may get ignorant
I'm early e'ry day, never took a vacation
Through mandatory overtime I
Always stay patient
Through all the petty dramas I'm
Calmer than a sloth
But the shit don't change like
If Obama woulda lost
I done worked my ass about 2011 years
And I'm usually far from
Anything that heaven fears
But, I'm feeling off-kilter i ain't
About to kill ya but, I am about to loosen
Up this filter here's you:
Jerking off to Halle Berry on the shitter
Then firing a nigga cause he's
Checking on his Twitter
You mad cause nobody's tagging you
In all the pictures?
Well here's a good one of
You tagging your wife's sister
Like THAT- See I been knowing
Ways to fight back
Vimeo of you saying you don't like blacks
Clearly though, full HD and in stereo
Your network's got holes, my dude, cheerio!
You try to get success directly
But there is one to destroy us
Sometimes the way is of need
Perhaps you may get ignorant
Look, success is just a thought but it
Can push us to the edge
Put it in our heads at an
Early age like the Pledge
Give our allegiance
While your at it give your souls
Won't tell you til you're grown that
All that glitters ain't gold
Love to watch 'em race
Love to watch 'em chase dreams
So dirty there ain't a cycle
That you can make clean
Got the athletes juicing
Singers getting naked
Rappers spending all they money before
They even make it actors scared to age
Shooting acid in their faces
Slaves to the ratings
Every show is more tasteless
Faithless as angels cutting wings
From their scapula
To trade it all in and be Dracula
Genocide in East Africa
But you watching Battlestar Gallactica
Filling up the data in the
Back of your digital camera
Taking glamorous shots of your mammaries
Surrounded by Vanity Fair magazine
And stuffed animals in the house
Your parents paid for
Built by hand on land people slaved for
Get ignorant, stay ignorant, in fact
Get belligerent - If you feel my sentiment
Attack keep kicking it
Screaming for your sense of entitlement
Flip me off with the same hand
You hold the Bible with
All that botox, every cream, every vitamin
Can't cover up the ignorance
That's inside of you i wouldn't lie to you
It can't cover up the ignorance
That's inside of you
But there is one to destroy us
Sometimes the way is of need
Perhaps you may get ignorant
Do I gotta get ign'ant and show
My pigment on the job
Slap the darkest part of my hand across jaws
These days and times with jobs hard to find
You gotta work a salt mine
Or work an assault 9
Most folks barely staying afloat
Through proper channels
And think the rich sit with
Black candles and slaughter mammals
And run the globe with mind
