Price Is Right

Lyrics

[Intro] Did I tell you? I'm bringing my record collection in and playing it for the class. You're bringing your record—? Now wait a minute. Suppose they don't like it? Why not? Listen, it took me 15 years to collect those records. Half those records can't even be replaced. Besides, music is based on mathematics. Yeah. What do I teach? Mathematics. You're right. Absolu— [Verse 1: Dephlow] On my 33rd hour since my last rest It's been 56 Fridays since my last check Any second of my life could be my last breath So 16 in the chamber and one in the neck 50 racks in the red 'til I get to the black Sallie Mae, suck a subsidized dick and relax I hit 'em back when I get it When Don't Sleep sold out shows in six digits It's bigger than just business 48 bars and continuous bricks We spit a path for ourselves, they ain't giving us shit 48 laws and the first is flawed 'Cause they can never outshine us, we work too hard Too many nights, too many zips, too many fights Too many Hennessy fifths, too many Rémy pints Too many memories of running the streets That's 272 twos coming from Don't Sleep [Hook] It's a numbers game, but shit don't add up somehow Different digits, it's just mine's a statistic Know what I mean Sometimes you gotta pay the price, man You better learn how to add No doubt, you do the math Everybody in the world out to make the quickest dime [Verse 2: Awon] 24 hours a day I sleep for five Every 365 I keep it live Verses for a band, doing shows 2 for 5 Work a job, plus dabble in the streets to survive So I preach "Don't ever sleep on my enterprise" 20/24 and three hours I close my eyes In the late hours I rise Back to the grind, can't complain, I rhyme And four bars in, it's ill, delusions of grandeur fly Hustle reprise, follow ten crack commandments 100 miles and running on this path of understanding With 36 chambers, silent murder on the tape Virgins straight, '96, the rhymes slicker I'm the fate merchant for those who believe Shackle those who deceive Profound in two bars 'Cause the message you receive impeccable degree I'm the rope to the revelry Rolex bezel me, no bail, metal me [Hook] It's a numbers game, but shit don't add up somehow Different digits, it's just mine's a statistic Know what I mean Sometimes you gotta pay the price, man You better learn how to add No doubt, you do the math Everybody in the world out to make the quickest dime
