Sol - Albert Einstein lyrics
[Sol - Albert Einstein lyrics]
It's my birthday and my girl ain't called
I think she's mad cause I work so hard
I can't help it it's the way I am
One man army no chain of command
No telling me when to stop
No one telling me, "you probably gonna flop"
Just a bunch of fans that I call friends
Cause they on my back like a dorsal fin
Do you ever wonder why I saw so thin?
Do you ever wonder why my eyes closed? Man
Cause all I do is eat beets
And look straight into the light
Since I was ten
We alone now, just me and you
Growing old together while the beat loop
Flowing yesterday already twenty two
About to graduate, what's a brother gonna do?
Let the bass line shape to your bones
I'm on stage and you're singing along
Don't matter what you drank
Don't matter what your name
Don't have to spit game I'm
Still taking you on love, what is that?
All I know is there's a beauty in my bed
And she wants to make a movie on my flip
Called her Ms fat Booty so
She called me Mos Def
Uh, yeah, I know you fuckin' with it
Not famous quite yet but I'm coming with it
I'm already high so I don't need to hit it
I just pass it to these rappers
That need to get lifted go to bed focused
Wake up driven
Live every day like I'm fresh outta prison
I think I'm Langston Hughes malik El Shabazz
Albert Einstein, you can do the math
I don't think I need a hook for this one
Cause you're already hooked on this one
No need to beat around the bush on this one
You already know i already won
(Do the math)
I'm the greatest rapper alive
At least that's what my momma think
Nobody used to give me love
Except for the homie Scribes
Now everybody buy me drinks
So, what am I supposed to think?
How am I to feel?
Knowing that I'm better than who got a deal
Still, I got to keep it cool
Cause a wise man said
"He who expects is a fool"
I hit the books cause the words are my medium
Richard Wright, Mark Twain, I see me in them
I don't need a pen to show you I'm a scholar
Solve problems in my head got
It from my father i'm the leader of my class
Dean's list, and he ain't even passed
Half-steppers need to read up on your raps
Albert Einstein genius on the track
I think she's mad cause I work so hard
I can't help it it's the way I am
One man army no chain of command
No telling me when to stop
No one telling me, "you probably gonna flop"
Just a bunch of fans that I call friends
Cause they on my back like a dorsal fin
Do you ever wonder why I saw so thin?
Do you ever wonder why my eyes closed? Man
Cause all I do is eat beets
And look straight into the light
Since I was ten
We alone now, just me and you
Growing old together while the beat loop
Flowing yesterday already twenty two
About to graduate, what's a brother gonna do?
Let the bass line shape to your bones

Don't matter what your name
