We like equations flowin through our brains
Them skippin school got no right to complain
Kids they be buzzin like some radio static
Me I got roots like a factored quadratic
He rocks the Algebra for the AMC
She prefers the funk of some phat Geometry
Mathematics feast there’s enough to go around
Pull up to the table, fill your plate, chow it down
Me tryin to win, I been practicin for weeks
Then draw on the wisdom of them super-smarty Greeks
My math is fly while them other subjects stutter
Mix em in a blender and then pour em down the gutter
Don’t sit in silence like the k in knowledge
Shout math out loud like you wanna go to college
Intercepting y’s in my b-boy stance
Sucker, this is Lusher, we do more than sing and dance
Six degrees up my sleeve while I peep the AMC
We satisfy our hunger with the wonder of some numbers
A mathematics sandwich just might get you through the day
We be to math what PB to J

And
I’m cool like math, I’m cool like math, I’m cool like math, I’m cool like math,
I drool like math, Old School like math, A fool for math, I’m cool… I’m cool…

We comin’ at you like x approaches c,
He has no limit so you write D. N. E.
Them’s what I hear cuz my ear is on the street
(Sayin) Who’s gonna join that AMC elite?
What do I care what them clowns be speakin?
When that day comes, you know I’ll be straight geekin
He’s the Titan Gauss in a room full of Eulers
Houston’s yesterday man, the math is in New Orleans.
She’s collaborative, she distributes her “G”
To auss-like enius of eometry.
You are third quartile, and we are much higher
Deviations unstandard cuz we be outliers
You don’t believe me, y’all check that data
Me its gon’ flatta
I mean, show I’m phatta
Not a normal curve, I’m the witch of Agnesi
Ax P how I fly, Oh her math is so breezy.

And
I'm chill like math, I’m chill like math, I'm chill like math, I’m chill like math,
I grill like math, I swill like math, I thrill like math, I’m chill… I’m chill…

Ain’t worried bout no grammar, it’s not English class
We bouts to straight up learn us some maths
They say you can’t be havin no double negatives
But we’re fine with them (Are you sure?) Yeah, I’m positive
Head to the AMC, you’ll be matchin witz
You’ll create the math like Newton or Leibniz
Jumpin for joy when I see a polynomial
Got no love for i though, yeah I keeps it real
Thinkin bout math even while I bust rhymes
Don’t tell me you scared or ain’t got the time
Get your math on, just like we be gettin ours
Eat up the competition like fun size candy bars

And
I’m peace like math, I’m peace like math, I’m peace like math, I’m peace like math
I feast like math, I grease like math, I’m a beast like math, I’m peace

Check it out man I grub like math
Hit the club like math
I grind like math
Blow my mind like math

Yeah I’m bad like math
I’m phat like math
I add like math
Subtract like math

Well yo I’m good like math
I’m fast like math
I’m hood like math
Kick @$$ like math

We be like math
AMC like math
We love like math
We out...we out...
