IF MEMORY SERVED ME WELL [#SpokenWord]

Mos Def - Yasiin Bey Music Photos News

I was the best at mathematics,
I even traveled 16 blocks,
With my bag pack and headphone on,
Listening to hip hop,
Counting and memorizing bars,
I am always down for the conscious raps,
I lived in the city that’s a trap,
That tried to hold me down,
But my creative mind had my back,
Just a like a light switch I flipped,
Pulling off momentous tricks,
Remembering when no one gave me a buck,
For I was a virgin at my craft,
Now I look back it everything laughing,
Reflecting,
As how everyone is now calling my math,
Instant gratification,
Cash.
