Marlon Craft - Get Up lyrics

Is it classless? I wish I were classless
Writin rhymes up in classes so
I can surpass this mental tax is
Payin my dues to institutions and it
Ain't like I ain't learnin
I’d just much rather be groovin
And doin it by doin
That make me a truant? So be it
And I’m far from Soviet but I’m
All for the union of people
Not the confusion of people
American capitalism’s made us
Illusions of people that’s why I’m on my
Rooftop wit aerial vision
So I ain’t blinded by material prisons
I just put em all in bars in an
Attempt to flip the script, flip the switch
Shed light on the viciousness
This is it, so be critical not cynical
I just be this lyrical young guy, no biblical
Let’s have ideas before we just buy
We gonna be forever underachievers

This that food for your mind so
Don’t lay on your spine
Man it’s time, gotta get up
And I ain't sayin that I’m better
I been blamin on the weather
But forget it, gotta get up
Cause the climate is dire but
I ain't tryin to retire
I’m fightin fire with fire
Cause we can’t be defeated, when they
Tell you be seated, repeat it, get up

Havin visions of greatness but
Waitin for yourself
To grow will make you impatient
They say it’s my time and I gotta take it
But takin my time is kinda passive
And really I’m sick of waitin
So what I bring to the table is
Food for thought, drink for pain
Forks in the road
But you gotta listen past the
Beat cause I want
You to eat but I can’t force you though
So I’m workin on my catalogue
Writin all day though I’m
Never takin Adderall
Tell people I rap and they
Laugh it off til they
Hear me like, "That ain’t bad
At all, shit man, that’s actually raw"
So I ain’t mad at yall
And no dog, I don’t wanna battle yall
More for unity between you and me
Cause I see the you in me
And we could fuck around and start a mutiny

This that food for mind so
Don’t lay on your spine
Man it’s time, gotta get up
And I ain't sayin that I’m better
I been blamin on the weather
But forget it, gotta get up
Cause the climate is dire but
I ain't tryin to retire
I’m fightin fire with fire
Cause we can’t be defeated, when they
Tell you be seated, repeat it, get up
