Take A Ride Lyrics

[Sample: Yasiin Bey]
It's-it's-it's simple mathematics
It's-it's-it's simple mathematics
It's-it's-it's simple mathematics
It's-it's-it's simple ma—mathematics

[Verse 1: Akua Naru]
Who⁠—who⁠—who wanna ride with 'Ku?
Experience rebirth inside the womb
Hip-hop of the higher truth
Only the minds of few aspire to
Behold what the fire do
Musical sniper, who?
Murder ya track like I'm hired to
Cause demand, then supply ya too
Yeah, let me vibe with you
I bring terror like Al Qaeda crew
Walk smooth like I'm ridin' through
Hypnotize the room
Some macaroni and screwdriver too
I turn it out like MacGyver do
Hear the sirens boom
Rap from the gutter to the choir pew
Leave em' for miles feelin' kinda blue
I got the⁠— I got the⁠—
I got the jazz like the Tribe Called crew
I cross covers like it's '92
And peep the science too
From 8-track down to vinyl too
My sound swoop down, recline on you
And take a ride with me

[Chorus: Yasiin Bey and Akua Naru]
(It's-it's-it's simple mathematics)
Hey, take a ride y'all
(It's-it's-it's simple mathematics) Uh-huh, huh, uh
Uh, take a ride with me
(It's-it's-it's simple mathematics) Yeah, uh-huh, uh
Take a ride with me, rock
(It's-it's-it's simple ma—mathematics) Hey, uh, uh

[Verse 2]
Look, been what's happenin' since Raj' and Re runnin' 'em
Gunnin' 'em off the stage, revised the pun again
Known to tip the bouncer just to let my little cousin in
Old tan salons, the way I stay sunnin' them
Stuntin' with estrogen, perfume the room to punish them
Hip-hop tourette fits a-fumblin', mumblin'
I shapeshift and take the form of Susan Cunningham
Today I'm just 'Ku, the self-governin' stop frontin' when
Non-profit emcees, my mental state fundin' 'em
When I'm alone, I outnumber them
When I'm behind, I'm in front of them
Glorified sufferin'
Breast-fed the track, but they won't say I mothered them
Property values rise the minute 'Ku stumble in
I smack springs straight till Summer end
While y'all cats fall for Winter Wonderland
Wonderin' why legal strugglin' to construct
And take a ride, with me

[Chorus: Yasiin Bey and Akua Naru]
(It's-it's-it's)
Hey, take a ride y'all, uh-huh
(It's-it's-it's simple mathematics)
Uh, take a ride with me, uh
(It's-it's-it's)
Oh yes
(Simple ma—mathematics)
Uh, take a ride, y'all
(It's-it's-it's)
Uh-huh, uh
(It's-it's-it's simple mathematics)
Uh-huh, take a ride with me, hey
(It's-it's-it's)
Uh
(It's-it's-it's simple ma—ma—ma—mathematics)
Uh, uh, yo

[Outro: Akua Naru]
I said my people where you at? Whoa
From the front to back
We keep 'em movin' like a pimp's Cadillac
To all my party people, scream loud
It's what you dream 'bout
You rockin' live with DIGFLO in the house
I said my people where you at? Yo
From the front to back
We keep 'em movin' like the pimp's Cadillac
And all my party people, scream loud
It's what you dream 'bout
We rockin' with a strings section in the house
Let's go!
