lyrics

"So Smart You're Stupid"

(Verse 1)
Have you ever heard someone say "You're so smart you're stupid"?
Or heard a old head say "The wise be the most clueless"?
I'm not foolish I'll raise my hand admit to it
I lacked common sense younger I could still use it
The kid in honors classes with thick glasses passin'
But couldn't tell Judge Judy from Mathis
When I look back then I remember this
Pops said I'd lose my ass if not attached to it
And there's some fact to it
'Cause to this day I'm losin' shit all the time
"Funmi where I put my keys?
They're in my pocket. Nevermind."
Never lying check it out I'm absent minded no doubt
Imagine me with money I'd own cribs I don't know about
Yeah, a dumb-dumb, a numbskull, son
And any synonyms with them I'm each one
I won't shun it or run from it goddumbit
Not none of it from the pit of my stomach

(Chorus)
Stupid stupid they call me stupid
I swear I'm so smart sometimes that I'm stupid
Stupid stupid they call me stupid
I swear I'm so smart sometimes that I'm stupid
But truth is I am only who I am
And if you don't like it then I give a damn
Truth is I am only who I am
And if you don't like it then I give a damn. Go

(Verse 2)
I remember when me and Will were doing mixtapes
But when we dropped the feedback wouldn't be great
The people loved Will and all the raps he'd say
But not mine it was over their minds
Didn't know at the time the reason why
Instead of my words I blamed my voice being high
But then I remember when I asked Will how he wrote his rhymes
"I just say what's real no big deal."
Broham, you know how it feel to think you're the best ever
To learn that an amateur better?
I used to wrack my brain to come with what I thought was clever
But when you take it apart: to smart for art
Back to drawingboard redrew my whole style
No metaphors just heart flowing like the Nile
Some say I'm dumbing down but I think I've smartened up
If you don't get the basics you're not smart enough
Hold up now is that hard or what

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
Grade me as a hard-head knuckle-head
Bet I'll get an A plus
Great report card but my common sense ain't much
Make a list of dumb stunts I'll check a bunch
I've blown more money than tornadoes on a bank truck
They say it ain't such... It ain't a stunt
If it weren't for luck I'd be some earthworms lunch
Yeah being a idiot could've killed the kid
I'm serious I'm lucky to just know what year it is
Some hearin' this just bobbin' they heads
But this is for cats who missin' knobs in their head
So smart and gifted that they're told they're a sped
They miss the bigger picture only lookin' at a thread
I shed light on 'em as I shine on 'em
As one of their own a king almost their clown
Stupid as it sounds: I'm as stupid as I look
Puttin' stupid bars down with this stupid ass hook, man

(Chorus)
