Background
"TooLeGit" was a demo recorded during the A Thousand Suns sessions and released on December 15, 2015 as a downloadable bonus track of the LP Underground 15 CD.
An LPU exclusive video about the song was released on the same day. On the video, Mike said: "It's a demo roughly around the time of A Thousand Suns. This is a great example of a song is kind of been in progress. The verse has some words, those words were rough, and they're kind like happening in a way that's a little bit free association. It's like the first things that come to mind you just kind of write them down, you don't spend a ton of time trying to make them to make sense. We might throw down just "la la la" on the top of another part because we got a melody but we don't have words yet. And so you hear on the course of this song here Chester just singing "darara rararada". Sometimes even if I got words I won't sing them on the track because sometimes weak words will make them think less of the song than strong words. So I'd rather they just hear "lalala" and no words."

Lyrics
Reaching out
Our hands grasp onto hope
This desert land
We feel the soil choke
Pray for the rain that never seems to come
Plant the seed that's burning in my sun
No
Ba da da da da da
Ba da da da ba da whoa
Ba da da da da da
Ba da da da da da da
Ba da da da ba da whoa
