Food For Thought

Ya'll know who it is
Marley Ranks
Who Dat Mama? Marley Ranks

Welcome to 'The HIGHer Calling'
Hey how are you all?
An hey hi I'm Marley
I designed the party
Well its not like a party
Yeah its more like a function
And I brought enough green
To overdose on consumption
And I'm spiked like the juice
Let's get straight to the punch then
If we ever cross paths
And meet up at a conjunction
You'll get dropped like a problem
Or I'm a drop you off with knowledge
Cause they all seem to think
That we are under the assumption
We believe anything
That the government say
Why should I vote its not up for debate
When I don't believe
That there's been an appointed leader
That didn't rig the election
That's won it to date

(Hmm) Look at that
'Food For Thought'
Like grandma say
You better clean yo' plate
We all love the hood
But we all know what's good
When you make enough money
Time to relocate
(Hmm) Look at that
'Food For Thought'
(Yeah) I'm out here takin' chances
Soon as I get that advance
No sooner will I change my plans up

This Alaskan imported tilapia
Don't taste nothin' like
That rice and salmon
You gotta' play with
The cards you get dealt
And that goes hand in hand with
(This what they want)
I got bread on bread
I'm decked up like a sandwich
Don't call you out the signal range
Cause you can't match my band width
Phone goin' off on the night stand
Mute with the right hand
I don't panic (How 'bout)
Somebody get God on the mainline
I think it's about time
We get some answers
You left us here with no guidance
I really think it's time
That you man up
Tell me why is it every year
Thousands more children
Dying from cancer
Why are the police still takin these
Mothers and fathers from families
When they got they hands up
You riddle with things
Deliberately
The wisdom in me
Just thinks you a scammer
You ain't made not one appearance
Since before the invention of cameras
Meanwhile everywhere
The Devil just dances
I mean what the Hell
Is you waitin' on clearance
How you left us here
On Mother Earth
It's clear you wasn't
Built for the marriage
Dear Heavenly Father
You ain't a good father figure
The irony thats apparent (A parent)

(Hmm) Look at that
'Food For Thought'
Like grandma say
You better clean yo' plate
We all love the hood
But we all know what's good
When you make enough money
Time to relocate
(Hmm) Look at that
'Food For Thought'
(Yeah) I'm out here takin' chances
Soon as I get that advance
No sooner will I change my plans up

The President freed
All his animals from the zoo
And let 'em loose on the Capitol
(Yeah) I guess security
Just didn't see 'em comin'
In the middle of the afternoon
The police saw a sea of white skin
And figured they didn't have to shoot
But we all know
The death toll would be up
By one or two numbers
If there was a black or two
(I'm just speaking facts to you)
I mean it's actual
Pyramid chambers that's hyperbolic
I'm pretty sure pretty soon
All our ancient alien history
Gone be common knowledge
You see I'm tasked with
Educating the masses
Entertainment through blackness
'The HIGHer Calling'
But if I rapped like this
On every track
You'd be skipping back to back
So like why bother?
(And that's why I say)

You better eat that
'Food For Thought'
Like grandma say
You better clean yo' plate
We all tryna out run our demons
And that's why they call this
The Human Race
(Hmm) Look at that
'Food For Thought'
The irony every sheep
Want a lamb truck
Oh you ten toes down
You got Hart like Kevin
No you actually
A joke when you stand-up
(Ranks)

(Hmm) Look at that
'Food For Thought' (Yeah)
(Hmm) Look at that
'Food For Thought' (Yeah)
And I said
(Hmm) Look at that
'Food For Thought' (Yeah)
