Homeboy Sandman – Name lyrics

My name was this
My name was that
Now that my name been nixed
My aim is wisdom
No more parlor tricks
I’m too hard to track
Nonetheless I exist
Outside the system
I’m too blessed to stress
Too strong to wrong
I am too cool to fool
Too calm to con
I am too fresh to fetch
Too healed to heel
I am too free to flee
Too real to kneel
Now that the time and place
To corrupt time and space
Has become commonplace
I’m on the case
This is all just a game
There ain’t no need for shame
There ain’t no need for change
No need for pain
Thanks to my guiding grace
I’m alongside the greats
I am inside the gates
Ain’t no more sour grapes
Where’s I before’s askew, now I’m straight
Where I before was screwed
Not I’m chaste

Can't solve me
I don't even care
Try and call me
I don't even hear
I ain't even here

Gather round boys and girls
Lemme tell you a tale
Of a new kind of brain
That does not have a name
But will always prevail
Give in and give it up
Don’t mind overriding your serotonin inhibitors
Leave on the lights
All the stars are aligned
At this time I would like
To thank god i’m alive
On the day I was born
Everything was foretold
When the first thing I saw
Was my own broken mold
When it gets late at night
Sometimes I lie awake
Sometimes I’ll take a hike
Sometimes I hibernate
All that I have is now
I do not have a past
I do not walk a path
I do not have a plan
I remain free to choose
That which I want to be
That which I want to do
That might be news to you
But it’s not news to me
So let’s cut the crap
Go ahead zip your lip
While I go bridge the gap

Can't solve me
I don't even care
Try and call me
I don't even hear
Can't solve me
I don't even care
Try and call me
I don't even hear
I ain't even here

Had to turn off the screen
Put down the phone
Which was good for my health
When I’m all by myself
I am still not alone
When I go overseas
I remain overseen
When I go down the road
It is all kings and queens
When I keep company
I don’t go after things
I let things come to me
Till they land in my hand
Because it’s rude to grab
That is the way I got
Everything that I have
None of which I will keep
‘Cause I like letting go
Much like the autumn leaves
Much like the fallen snow
Or the clouds overhead
Must continue to move
Or the day and the night
And the sun and the moon
I don’t ask how or why
But observe what and when
I am not one of you
I am not one of them
I am a one of one
That’s for sho'
Being me 101s
All I know

I don't even care
I don't even hear
I ain't even here
