Sandpeople - Just A Name lyrics

Check it out i’m a artist ‘til my
Motherfuckin’ arteries close
A couple Winehearts
A couple Bob Marleys to roll
If I did my job
You won’t forget a party we throw
When you leave, you’ll take a part of me home

Yea, you already know that this
Is not by accident
We’re known to hit the road if there’s
Enough money for gas in it
But we won’t compromise our soul
On these mics we hold you can’t deny us
For miles we roll to different locals
To rip it for crowds

We ain’t the dopest in the univеrse
But we’ve been through somе dirt
And hate when MCs talk in
Circles like Who’s on First?


My crew works to move merch and improve worth
And we came to put a new
Spin on things like Kool Herc

I spit hard because the fans love it
I’ll never lack substance
Or complain if I start to
Make some cash from it
We don’t flash colors or pack guns and
To a fan Hip Hop and
Rap doesn’t pass judgement

We’ve been gone for many days
Our hearts, we’ll illustrate
All along these interstates
(It’s time to move, we do it now)
Some good people got our back
In this beautiful habitat
Just look at where we at
(Birds eye view, we lookin’ down)
If you download this song for free
Then cop the whole discography
Come to the show rockin’ a tee
(Support music that’s underground)
Sandpeople’s just a name
But it means everything to us
So we’re glad you came
And now enjoy the show

I’m no star, this ain’t a solar system
We pack shows and ask folks to listen
Like Johnny Cash in Folsom Prison
Though the cash flow is missin’
Like missile’s we’ve harbored (Sike)
These weapons of mass construction'll build
Somethin’ out this carbon life

I rock a mic with the same steady hand
That pops lorazepam ‘til I’m
Walkin’ like Lieutenant Dan
In a rented van on a
Road trip with the Sandpeeps
We perform in front of full
Capacities off no sleep

Just to be a part of the
Underground that’s a part of us
I run around
Hustlin’ pounds and spit hard as fuck
If you from our town
Then for you I spark this blunt
Labels dumb it down
But it’s time the fans smarten up

Get what you want from us
What drug’s better than this beat?
Plus, we on the cusp of
Fuckin’ up this industry
Yea, we on our grizzly bear, animal planet
Sew the plan up like fabric to let ‘em know
(It’s Sandpeople, dammit)
We’ve been gone for many days
Our hearts, we’ll illustrate
All along these interstates
(It’s time to move, we do it now)
Some good people got our back
In this beautiful habitat
Just look at where we at
(Birds eye view, we lookin’ down)
If you download this song for free
Then cop the whole discography
Come to the show rockin’ a tee
(Support music that’s underground)
Sandpeople’s just a name
But it means everything to us
So we’re glad you came
And now enjoy the show

I hit the stage with explosive command
Never fold under the weight
Holdin’ the earth in my hands
And I was molded from mistake
But made perfect as man
You in a vulnerable state if you
Ain’t good with my fam

Yo, we got-gots to get it like clockwork
I big up promoters and street teams
Our culture can re-think the music it plays
Improvin’ their ways and acknowledge love
I may be OnlyOne
But I’m speakin’ for all of us

Yea, I party like a rockstar
At least I think except for the part that no
Star’s as poor as me
This tour’s taken it’s toll on me
So has the Portland scene
I’m 200 miles away like, "fuck it then
Just poor me some drinks"

We’ve been gone for many days
Our hearts, we’ll illustrate
All along these interstates
(It’s time to move, we do it now)
Some good people got our back
In this beautiful habitat
Just look at where we at
(Birds eye view, we lookin’ down)
If you download this song for free
Then cop the whole discography
Come to the show rockin’ a tee
(Support music that’s underground)
Sandpeople’s just a name
But it means everything to us
So we’re glad you came
And now enjoy the show
