Canned Goods Homeboy Sandman

[Verse 1: Homeboy Sandman]
Back in QU momma worked for City Harvest
She knew that Congress didn't care about who the Reagan era hit the hardest
She never bought me none of the fancy garments
It hurt her watching people eat from out the garbage
She wanted to do her part to help em progress
She knew that even more than any possessions or expensive fancy objects
They needed something to digest
We'd already been cleaning out our closet
Headed straight to the Salvation Army station for deposit
My mommy, had figured out that everyone passed the mailroom while they was walking through the lobby
So that was probably, the best location
For some boxes set up to collect donations
She left a box that said "for help to feed the needy"
And everybody read it except for cats that failed at reading
And even though some punks had tagged it up with some graffiti
When I came to check it out the following evening it was filled with canned goods

[Hook]
Life gets out of hand
Have nots and can’ts eat out cans
The canned goods
Other food spoils much quicker
The spoils go to the victors

Canned goods
Life gets out of hand
Have nots and can’t eat out of cans
The canned goods
Other food spoils much quicker
The spoils go to the victors
