Artist: CunninLynguists Album: Oneirology Song: Get Ignorant Typed by: OHHLA Webmaster DJ Flash [Intro] You try to get success directly But there is one, to destroy us Sometimes the way is out of reach Perhaps you may get, ignorant [Verse One] Do I gotta get it ig'nant 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 stayin afloat through proper channels And thank the rich sheik with black camels and slaughter mammals They run the globe with mind control in 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 could get the white picket fence and yellow lab That A-merican dream makes me wake up and scream It consists of old money buyin shiny new things Ttat I'm about to break cause I'm creatin a scene You can use as an anthem for Kanye's tantrums Cause I'm about a thumb and a finger away from snappin Damn it! [Chorus] Get ignorant Get ignorant Sometimes the way is out of reach Perhaps you may get, ignorant [Verse Two] I'm early e'ry day, never took a vacation Through mandatory overtime I always stayed 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 off about twenty-eleven 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 jerkin off to Halle Berry on the shitter (no!) Then firin a nigga cause he's checkin on his Twitter (no!) You mad cause ain't nobody taggin you in all the pictures (NO~!) Well here's a good one of you taggin your wife's sister like that!! (NO~!) I've been knowin ways to fight back Vimeo of you sayin that you don't like blacks Clearly though, full HD and in stereo Your network's got holes my dude, cheerio! I'm out this bitch [Chorus] + [dub interlude] [Verse Three] Look... Success is just a target, it could push us to the edge Put in our heads at an early age like the pledge Give our allegiance while you editin your souls Won't tell you 'til you're gone that all that glitters ain't gold But we love to watch 'em race, love to watch 'em chase dreams So dirty, ain't a cycle that you can make clean Got the athletes juicin, singers gettin naked The rappers spendin all they money 'fore they even make it Actors scared to age, shootin acid in they faces Slaves to the ratings, every show is more tasteless Faithless as angels cutting wings from they scapula to trade it all in and be Dracula?! [Verse Four] Genocide in East Africa, but you watchin Battlestar Galactica Fillin up the data in the back of yo' digital camera Taking glamorous, shots of yoo' 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 kickin it, screamin for yo' 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
