Fish to Fry

from Impossible Bottle Service by Sankofa

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    This CD is beautiful. Do you know why? It's because Shane Joines made some crazy artwork and then Chef Mike whipped it up in the graphic wizard kitchen and came up with the magicalness that is this CD. There are 50 CDs like this in the world, a handful have already gone to collaborators and folks on my mailing list who swooped it early, SO YOU'LL HAVE TO CLICK BELOW TO SEE HOW MANY ARE ACTUALLY AVAILABLE. I like being small, so you won't find me doing a repress. You want one? Get it! Got it? Good.

about

A mission statement/glimpse of the world as seen through the eyes of an embattled optimist.

lyrics

I’ve got a great idea
Well what does Chumzilla think about it though?
Best one yet
Uh, okay
So um, why don’t you just sidle on over and check this out?

Let’s make it denser than it has to be
Potentially hazardous to the cats who try to capture half the masterpiece
A massive beast leaving ruins in his wake
Superhuman moving weight, watch him zooming in his cape
Never truant cause the beat is ridden, staying in the pocket
Pick a pocket where the zipper’s blocking all the different options
My process is pretty simple, pick a beat and rip it
A lost breath within is nimble, fricassee it wicked
Maybe need a minute, find an angle then I’m diving in
No holds barred, I’m bombarding your soul with gold stars
As for conversations, man I never take a troll far
Biggest billy goat fulfilling dopeness, let them stroll hard

So walk along little man
Walk along little man, walk along
So walk along little man
We’ve got bigger fish to fry

Providing grins to those who follow along
Ears to souls with this music, I acknowledge that bond
The polish is gone but I’m not here for the ambience
I’m here to be present, accounted for, gaudiness gone beyond
Dropping thoughts over beats, handing you the cardiac
Trying to be green with envy words connect the art of rap
I regard a gat as something for the insecure
Go ‘head and pose with your toy, man you spin and burn
Can’t go anywhere without your metal binkie
Watch you catch a beat down with a bent up slinky
Acting tough, puffing chests, the gun is a prop
Propping up the sucker that you are now in the shop
Nobody’s going to steal the lil Debbie that you’re buying
Try not to shoot yourself in the pickup that you climb in
I never liked a Trump and don’t really care for Biden
Cause he’s all about the money, never all the dying

So walk along little man
So walk along little man
So walk along little man
We’ve got bigger fish to fry


Meanwhile, they played for a sucker and you suck along
Blaming all of those people for the trouble that you’re finding
What a pawn, but go ahead and shout another slogan
Mind blown, did you hear that hubba hubba Rogan?
I mean, what if, maybe they did it, let’s believe it all
And some care to wonder why we find ourselves in a free for all
Suspended disbelief and stall reason cause we got the faith
Divide and conquer drive the wedge, is how they operate
I heard the flag’s on sale, man I’m copping 8
Not today adrenochrome pizza gate, not today
Got a lot to say and it’s something that they fed you
Lockstep with the other puppets, ‘sup with chess moves?
We’re pointing trigger fingers at each other but it isn’t us
It’s the people making all the bucks who laugh from up above
They’ve got so dialed in, it’s feeling hopeless
The more they take the less we have there is motive
We’re pointing trigger fingers at each other, it isn’t us
It’s the people making all the bucks who laugh from up above
But they’ve got so dialed in, it’s feeling hopeless
The more they take the less we have and that there is their motive
