Mathematics (Explicit) - Mos Def
Written by：C Martin/D Smith
Bucka bucka bucka bucka bucka bucka haha
You know the deal
It's just me yo
Beats by Su-Primo for all of my people
Negroes and latinos
And even the gringos
Yo check it
One for Charlie Hustle 2 for Steady Rock
3 for the forthcoming live future shock
It's 5 dimensions 6 senses
7 firmaments of heaven and hell
8 Million Stories to tell
9 planets faithfully keep in orbit with the probable tenth
The universe expands length
The body of my text possess extra strength
Power-lift the powerless up out of this towering inferno
My ink so hot it burn through the journal
I'm blacker than midnight on Broadway and Myrtle
Hip-Hop passed all your tall social hurdles
Like the nationwide project-prison-industry complex
Working-class poor better keep your alarm set
Streets too loud to ever hear freedom ring
Say evacuate your sleep it's dangerous to dream
For ch-ching cats get the cha-pow
You dead now
Killing fields need blood to graze the cash cow
It's a numbers game but sh*t don't add up somehow
Like I got 16 to 32 bars to rock it
But only 15% of profits ever see my pockets like
69 billion in the last 20 years
Spent on national defense
But folks still live in fear like
Nearly half of America's largest cities is one-quarter black
That's why they gave Ricky Ross all the crack
16 ounces to a pound 20 more to a ki
A 5-minute sentence hearing and you're no longer free
40% of Americans own a cell phone
So they can hear
Everything that you say when you ain't home
I guess Michael Jackson was right
You are not alone
Rock your hardhat black cause you in the Terrordome
Full of hard niggas large niggas dice-tumblers
Young teens and prison greens facing life numbers
Crack mothers crack babies and AIDS patients
Young bloods can't spell
But they could rock you in PlayStation
This new math is whipping motherf**kers' a**
You want to know how to rhyme you better learn how to add
It's mathematics
The Mighty Mos Def
It's simple mathematics
Check it out
I revolve around science
What are we talking about here
The Mighty Mos Def
It's simple mathematics
Check it out
