Scientist

Written by：Baba Brinkman

As an act of defiance I insist

On disrupting silences with an iron fist

I'm not a mindless artist I'm a scientist

Einstein and Darwin are partners I enlist

I spark alliances chasing after infinity

Matter is energy trapped in genetic memory

I gather it into me and capture it vividly

When adapting it into these raps with intensity

I don't ask for sympathy though it's often hard

I want no part of post-modern art

Or doggerel shot-in-the-dark Hallmark card

Photocopied poems thrown in the shopping cart

I don't know where the problem starts but it finishes here

Witnesses hear the difference every sentence is clear

Innocent ears listen as fear and sin disappear

This is sheer Genesis redemption is near

I'm a scientist in the lab I mix it up

With a giant gift of gab just a nut

But I'm not Quannum or Common

I'm an anomalous phenomenon

Just tryin' to spit this rap and live it up

I'm a scientist in the lab I mix it up

With a giant gift of gab just a nut

But I'm not Quannum or Common

I'm an anomalous phenomenon

Just tryin' to spit this rap and live it up

Basically I'm takin' this beat and tappin' it

Like the base of a maple tree for the sap in it

The flavour is sweet makin' me passionate

It tastes like an aphrodisiac when I fashion it

Exact craftsmanship like renaissance art

I begin to come apart when the song starts

Oxymoron at heart blonde and smart

Drawn in sharp contrast to common sparks

I blaze from dawn to dark and at sundown

That's when I rap to the fat drum sound

I wrap my tongue around the claps and pounds

Like the underground Pied Piper rats come drown

'Cause half the acts around are sinking ships

About to relinquish diminishing grips

I make fingers slip

When I bring this quick-witted English linguistic brinkmanship

I'm a scientist in the lab I mix it up

With a giant gift of gab just a nut

But I'm not Quannum or Common

I'm an anomalous phenomenon

Just tryin' to spit this rap and live it up

I'm a scientist in the lab I mix it up

With a giant gift of gab just a nut

But I'm not Quannum or Common

I'm an anomalous phenomenon

Just tryin' to spit this rap and live it up

When I rap I stand on the shoulders of geniuses

With hats back and baggy pants holding their penises

Posing overeager for media shows but I see them as

Poets and dreamers you know what I mean

This is why I flow with a seamlessness that approaches perfection

And openly question those with Jehovah's protection

Although my only weapons are jokes with no aggression

My most hopeless obsession is with my own reflection

So I suppose the impression I give is narcissistic

A smart gifted artistic hard-fisted dark twisted

Sharp-witted scarred sadistic heartless mystic

As harsh as it is to have my worst parts listed

Definitions are simplistic one-dimensional blurbs

Invented in the intention to blur sensual curves

I was sent to this earth with unconventional words

Which I intend to disperse until some tension is purged

I'm a scientist in the lab I mix it up

With a giant gift of gab just a nut

But I'm not Quannum or Common

I'm an anomalous phenomenon

Just tryin' to spit this rap and live it up

I'm a scientist in the lab I mix it up

With a giant gift of gab just a nut

But I'm not Quannum or Common

I'm an anomalous phenomenon

Just tryin' to spit this rap and live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

I'm a scientist in the lab I mix it up

With a giant gift of gab just a nut

But I'm not Quannum or Common

I'm an anomalous phenomenon

Just tryin' to spit this rap and live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up

And live it up
