lirik lagu cam james - simple math3matics
verse 1
uh… as a teenager, my mind was gone
cause comin’ up i lived in several different time zones
was feelin like i’m ent-tled to all these women
cause i laced my earlobe with all the shiniest of rhinestones
skinny youngin rockin tall tees and runnin at my
local court wit discount jordans thought i was fresh as h-ll
had a pair for special occasions, them all white adidas
i would throw hands at nxggas steppin on the sh-ll
chillin out maxin, relaxin off, coolin off we got a swimming pool we never use
my mind on the revenues, cause i never had a real job, i’m feelin cheap
i go to cl-ss, i go to practice, and then i repeat
my adolescence, was full of h-lla lessons, had no idea i’d be makin records
so every time i’d daydream in my cl-sses, n the teacher called me out
and tried to point me in the right direction
i told em i’m tryna be, greater than…you
teacher lady… i’m tryna be greater than… it’s mathematics
vibin’ out
verse 2
movin’ onto college now, graduated with the high
gpa, and college letters stackin’ up, by mid-july
i decided that i was rollin’ wit, atl and i kept it rollin’ since
all them northern colleges was cold as shxt
had to be somebody, my vision was probably tainted
with pictures of success, women n maseratis
college days was like degr-ssi, an artist in the makin’
masqueradin’ as a strugglin’ student i ain’t have to fake that
now it seems like way back, motivation and asap
tip in my headphones, makin’ my hustle grand
every song that i make, my lyrical muscle expands
i got a message, nothin’ irrelevant like russell brand, nahh
my role models, was never poppin’ bottles, they led the way
in our struggle for freedom, they popped the throttle
puttin’ feet down, and i’m channellin’ that spirit in the booth
’cause no matter what happens outside, y’all always get the truth
i’m tryna be…
verse 3
now it’s simple, arithmetic cause one and one makes three
because my, parents got together and done made me, and my two siblings
destined for greatness, never settlin’ for no city, state or no country
man, the planet bout to let us in
lyricism is heaven sent, never underestimate the fact
that i can capture people’s spirits with my words
all the stages i rocked and the cds that people copped
from spittin’ thoughts into mics, now hundreds of fans have heard of me
d-mn, i can’t quite express it verbally
every time somebody quotes my lyrics i’m in surgery
from cardiac arrest, all the love that i’ve been feelin’ from my fans
could never pay that back, cause i started all this from ground zero
it took me 12 months of college with 4 jobs to drop two quality tapes on ya
and i’m only 22, i got my whole life ahead of me
say what you want about me, you gotta respect the pedigree
