Fresh Air Fund Songtext
von Homeboy Sandman

Deca locked me in a room with a beat
The type that set a mood that get you moving your feet
We′re similar but different like a clue and a lead
We're similar but different like a loo and latrine
Not playing if I was I would be playing for keeps
Not playing if I was I would be taking the lead
I skip the prime meridian without enough sleep
There′s way too many Indians and not enough chiefs
I'm only gonna be living for a limited time
Depending who you are you'll think I have a criminal mind
I whip the station wagon in the heat of the night
But if you′re lollygagging then I′ll pass on the right
Even my hecklers be checking the rhyme
By force of habit, yo I'm havin′ me a heck of a time
So front and center 'fore I send you to the back of the line
For looking cross eyed at the god cipher divine


I found a penny being petty I don′t know where from
That's a penny for the fresh air fund
I found a nickel being fickle chilling nowhere fun
That′s a nickel for the fresh air fund
I found a quarter on the corner outta nowhere it come
That's a quarter for the fresh air fund
I found a dollar tryna holla
I was almost done
That's a dollar for the fresh air fund

Go with the flow
Take part in the safari wit the star of the show
I wrote it on papyrus for my Farsi Bros
I′m something like a pirate going "thar she blows"
Out nowhere started blowing out a cloud of smoke
Graffitied on the beanie of your garden gnome
Yet to spend a penny to repay them loans
I′d much rather step into the great unknown
Showing you the nuts and bolts
I wrote a couple cuts for the nuts in cults
Dressed it all up like a custard cone
There is no such thing as a custom clone
If you aren't being you that is just a pose
You need to get the real thing juxtaposed
I know that kids make the best adults
So long as I live I′ma get results


I found a penny being petty I don't know where from
That′s a penny for the fresh air fund
I found a nickel being fickle chilling nowhere fun
That's a nickel for the fresh air fund
I found a quarter on the corner outta nowhere it come
That′s a quarter for the fresh air fund
I found a dollar tryna holla
I was almost done
That's a dollar for the fresh air fund

None of this happens by chance
I am holding on by the seat of my pants
I am taking this to the furthest extent
I am comfortable in the vastest expanse
I'll be on the way when I wake from my nap
I am not reluctant to work with my hands
Shop class for all on which I cast my glance
That′s word to mother father grandma gramps
When things begin to take shape with men on base I′m batter up
I say grace and keep the faith no matter what
It feels like a great day to fall in love
I'm grateful and get fooled no more than once
Safe spaces in case you wanna count
Bar mitzvah is what it′s all about
Won't risk a wish to hit no amount
Classes are dismissed, yo I′m out
