letra de peculiar mathematics - amerigo gazaway

[intro]

[marvin g-ye]:
baby, (understanding microphone mathematics)
ain’t that peculiar?
ain’t that peculiar? a peculiarity

[yasiin bey]:
bucka-bucka-bucka-bucka-bucka-bucka, haha!

[mg]:
ain’t that peculiar?
how things turn around
ain’t that peculiar
peculiar as can be

[verse 1: yb]
yo, check it
1 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 h-ll, 8 million stories to tell
9 planets faithfully keep in orbit with the probable 10th
the universe expands length
the body of my text possess extra strength
power-lift the powerless up out of this towering inferno (ain’t that peculiar?)
my ink so hot it burn through the journal
i’m blacker than midnight on broadway and myrtle
hip-hop p-ssed all your tall social hurdles (how things turn around)
like the nationwide project-prison-industry complex
working-cl-ss 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 16 to 32 bars to rock it (how things turn around, baby)
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 (ain’t that peculiar?)
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 (ain’t that peculiar?)
rock your hardhat, black, cause you in the terrordome
full of hard n-ggas, large n-ggas, 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-ckers’ -ss
you want to know how to rhyme you better learn how to add
it’s mathematics (ain’t that peculiar?)

[hook: mg]
ain’t it funny
no, it just ain’t funny (ain’t that peculiar)
how things turn around (a peculiarity)
how things turn around
ain’t it funny
no, it just ain’t funny (ain’t that peculiar)
how things turn around (peculiar as can be)
how things turn around

“it’s simple mathematics!”
“the mighty mos def”
“the unchallenged”
“ain’t sh-t dropping sound”
“numbers is hard and real and they never have feelings-”
“and it’s been like that since the day, yo”
“the mighty mos def”
“it’s simple mathematics”
“one, two, three!”
“make note and observation”
“what are we talking about here?”
“do your math, do your math”
“1, 2, 3, 4”
“what are we talking about here?”

[verse 2]
yo, it’s 1 universal law but 2 sides to every story
3 strikes and you biddin’ for life, mandatory
4 mcs murdered in the last 4 years
i ain’t trying to be the 5th when the millennium is here
yo it’s 6 million ways to die, from the 7 deadly thrills
8-year-olds getting found with 9mils
it’s 10 pm, where your seeds at? what’s the deal?
he on the hill pumping krills to keep they bellies filled
light in the -ss 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 is 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 5 million under state supervision
this is business: no faces, just lines and statistics
from your phone, your zip code to ssi digits (i don’t wanna lose you…)
the system break man, child, and women into figures
2 columns for “who is” and “who ain’t n-ggas”
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)

[hook]
“the mighty mos def”
“the unchallenged”
“ain’t sh-t dropping sound”
“numbers is hard and real and they never have feelings-”
“and it’s been like that since the day, yo”
“the mighty mos def”
“it’s simple mathematics”
“one, two, three!”
“make note and observation”
“what are we talking about here?”
“it’s all mathematics”
“the mighty mos def”
“the unchallenged”
“ain’t sh-t dropping sound”
“numbers is hard and real and they never have feelings-”
“and it’s been like that since the day, yo”
“the mighty mos def”
“understand microphone mathematics”
“i revolve around science”
“what are we talking about here?”

how can i tell someone else
what i don’t understand myself?

[outro]
ain’t that peculiar?
a peculiarity
how things turn around
ain’t it funny
no, it just ain’t funny (ain’t that peculiar)
how things turn around (a peculiarity)
how things turn around
ain’t it funny
no, it just ain’t funny (ain’t that peculiar)
how things turn around (peculiar as can be)
how things turn around
