Gradient is back for you rap cats and I'm makin' scratches
At the game, never been the same, finna light a flame with a book of matches
I'm a disaster and I rap casually, I'm a problem so mathematically
It's a fact that I'm irrational like three point one four (for) one of y'all to say
That I'm quite wack? Well the way that I'd strike back
Is to say "that's just like, your opinion, man," but I'm like Shaq
Cause I just don't do go away, even if you've had quite enough of me
I'mma be an individual, cause there's never gonna be another me
Life is a classroom, it just depends on your outlook
I be in the front row with five pencils and a notebook
Cause I'm so hooked on absorbing every little bit of knowledge that I can
Knowledge plus wisdom is power in your hands
And I wanna get my hands quite full
Tryna be a better human being
Cause I got a lotta opportunities a lotta people never seen
A lotta people got dreams but spend too much time wishin'
Hard work is a virtue, make your dreams come to fruition
Cause their ain't no tuition
In the university of Wikipedia
You can spend an hour on there and learn a lot more than the media
Will report in a whole week
Cause their audience is all sheep
I'm talking 'bout cable news, man, cause a lot of us are asleep
Cause it's not just Fox News, man, it's also MSNBC
Anyone who tries to put me in a box, never been a friend to me
I'm more clever than the enemy, so they're never gonna get at me
And they better be on Ketamine, if they ever think I'mma let it be
We can do better than this, y'all, just think independently
You don't have to pretend to be anything less than you wanna be
When I'm on the beat, and I'm spitting heat, I'm an animal, like a wallaby
Like I oughta be, this is how I say I don't quite fit the dichotomy
We live in a false economy, eat each other up, like piranha be
But I'mma be different cause I wanna feed, I don't wanna eat
And I'm gonna be very proud of me, and you're gonna wish you never doubted me
Whoa, sorry for that rant, y'all, I just really had to get that outta me
