"namesake" lyrics

"namesake"

Itty-bitty-titty committee
The world with me, your girl with me
And I don't even really like pussy
That's a homie
Tiny island, call Poseidon
Cry me a river, you could cry me a metaphor
A megaphone, screamin' out
Dream about revolution, air pollution
Same solution, socialism
They ain't really fuckin' with my niggas though
Off the grid, we just love the community guidin'
Off the grid, you could be a martian 'round here
Settle down here, we could love love
Drive up to the motherland and learn about what was
And if the world don't budge, then eat me out, sweetie
I wanna smile tonight, I only got one lap around the sun
And he goin' down tonight, yeah, yeah
So maybe I'm goin' down too
Yeah, maybe I'm goin' down too

Yo, I never need no man
I got a little bit of love and a couple of friends
Picture me rollin' up the bud in the south of Sudan
Yo, I never need no, no, no
Yo, I never need no man
I got a little bit of love and a couple of friends
Picture me rollin' up the bud in the south of Sudan
Yo, I never need no, no, no

Noname, where she came?
We could stand in the rain
Maintain a good life, we could fry plantain
Same day the airstrikes strike down I-ran
I ran into the house with a blunt in my hand, let's smoke
I don't wanna see death no more, let's fight
They got the devil hidin' in plain sight
That's you, that's me, the whole world is culpable
Our complacency float the boat the most
I don't really get it, y'all ain't really with it
All that eat the rich, tax the rich, y'all ain't really about that shit
Bitch, if you want some money, you can say that
You deserve the payback 'cause niggas took everything
Let's go get that and take it to the hood though
Share it with community, we soldiers in plain clothes
Everybody got their role, don't be an opp
Everybody got their roles, I'ma play mine
Like Scooby-Doo in a haunted house
I see the ghost that they talkin' 'bout, I see the signs
Read in between the line at the crime scene
I ain't fuckin' with the NFL or Jay-Z
Propaganda for the military
Complex a say, Gunna shot lil Terry out
What's his same? Gunna shot some [?] and what's bad?
We all think the Superbowl's the best thing

Go, Rihanna, go
Watch the fighter jet fly high
War machine gets glamorized
We play the game to pass the time
Go, Beyoncé, go
Watch the fighter jet fly high
War machine gets glamorized
We play the game to pass the time
Go, Kendrick, go
Watch the fighter jet fly high
War machine gets glamorized
We play the game to pass the time
Go, Noname, go
Coachella stage got sanitized
I said I wouldn't perform for them
And somehow I still fell in line

Fuck, I never need no name
I got a little bit of love and a memory lane
Picture me rollin' up the bud, I don't play them games
Yo, I never need no, no, no
Uh, I never need no name
I got a little bit of love and a memory lane
Picture me rollin' up the bud, I don't play them games
Yo, I never need no, no, no
