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 2for Steady Rock
3for the forthcoming live future shock
It's 5dimensions 6senses
7firmaments of heaven and hell
8Million Stories to tell
9planets 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 16to 32bars to rock it
But only 15%of profits ever see my pockets like
69billion in the last 20years
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
16ounces to a pound 20more 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

What are we talking about here
Do your math do your math
1234
What are we talking about here
Yo
It's one universal law but 2sides to every story
3strikes and you be in for life mandatory
4MC's murdered in the last 4years
I ain't trying to be the fifth one the millennium is here
Yo it's 6Million Ways to Die from the 7deadly thrills
8year olds getting found with 9mils
It's 10P.M.where your seeds at
What's the deal
He on the hill pumping krill to keep they belly filled
Light in the a**with heavy steel
Sights on the pretty sh*t in life
Young soldiers trying to earn their next stripe
When the average minimum wage is $5.15
You best believe you've got to find a new grind to get cream
The white unemployment rate
It's nearly more than triple for black
Some front-liners got their gun in your back
Bubbling crack jewel theft and robbery to combat poverty
And end up in the global jail economy
Stiffer stipulations attached to each sentence
Budget cutbacks but increased police presence
And even if you get out of prison still living
Join the other 5million under state supervision
This is business no faces just lines and statistics
From your phone your zip code to S-S-I digits
The system break man child and women into figures
2columns for who is and who ain't niggas
Numbers is hard and real and they never have feelings
But you push too hard even numbers got limits
Why did one straw break the camel's back
Here's the secret
The million other straws underneath it
It's all mathematics math
The Mighty Mos Def
It's simple mathematics
Check it out
