about

It just came to me. Before the controversy.

lyrics

When Kanye dropped Poopity Scoop, it really got me thinking about the power of words
You see, he could have said anything at that time. The whole world was waiting for his speech
He could have closed down a thousand Starbucks and slowed gentrification for like two.. whole weeks. He could have sent coded messages to killer thugs in the hood. Veiled condolences for Barbara Bush, kinda sorta sugga water coulda shoulda woulda
But he didn’t.
Instead, he Pooty Tanged in the whole world's face one time. And if you don’t understand that line, go watch the movie Pooty Tang and you might understand Kanye’s mind.
Because we all got online and paid attention for it. Millions of dollars worth of promotion garnered. We mentally bought it. Time is money. On it! Like them sneakers of his.
Sheeeeeeeiiiiit. If that isn’t power huh, nigga I don’t know what is.
That critical moment is the reason I stand before you in this spot.
Cause this the only poem I got. My IG got more hearts, FB got more likes. Man this nga said “poopity scoop” and changed my whole life. That's power.
I write the words, re-write the songs, what don’t kill me- I forget what I was about to say
but that's Okay. Because I Think! Therefore I am Kanye.
And I don’t care if y’all don’t like me. I am a genius, I am the black Walt Disney.
And George Bush doesn’t care about black people. And black people don’t care about black people. I’m Yeezy. And I’m pretty sure I don’t care about Black people.
But maybe it’s the medication I been on since they kidnapped me. And none uh y’all came and got me. I am a god. It ain't my job to be happy. And I’m salty!
So Donald Trump, if you’re listening…
Tell Mark Zuckerberg to call me!
