lirik lagu mathematics / money, power & respect (mixed) – mos def & the lox
[intro]
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 gringos
yo, check it
[verse 1]
one for charlie hustle, two for steady rock
three for the forthcomin’ live future shock
it’s five dimensions, six senses
seven firmaments of heaven and h*ll
eight million stories to tell
nine planets faithfully keepin’ orbit with a 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 projects*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
k!lling fields need blood to graze the cash cow
it’s a numbers game, but sh*t don’t add up somehow
like i got sixteen to thirty*two bars to rock it
but only fifteen percent of profits ever see my pockets
like sixty*nine billion in the last twenty 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
sixteen ounces to a pound, twenty more to a ki
a five minute sentence hearing and you no longer free
forty percent 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 n*ggas, large n*ggas, dice*tumblers
young teens and prison greens facin’ life numbers
crack mothers, crack babies and aids patients
young bloods can’t spell, but they could rock you at playstation
this new math is whippin’ motherf*ckers’ ass
you wanna know how to rhyme? you better learn how to add
it’s mathematics
[outro]
the mighty mos def
it’s simple mathematics— check it out
i revolve around science
what are we talking about here?
