Lesson One (Tablo’s Words) EPIK HIGH (에픽하이)

[에픽하이 "Lesson One (Tablo's Words)" 가사]

[Intro: Rakim]
People um
I walk through the streets
Everybody wanna change
You gotta do certain things, you know?
Straight up

[Intro: Tablo]
Yeah, people, attention
Education, knowledge
Huh, yeah, I got something to say to my teachers
Lyrxo is not the answer to all questions
It's the question to all answers

[Verse 1: Tablo]
Do we learn math to add the dead sums?
Subtract the weak ones, count cash for great ones?
Yo, we multiply but divide the nation
Break down like fractions, send our sons away to die
Do we learn science in defiance of faith?
To make alliance with fakes for an appliance's sake?
We ask for the real to make artificial intelligence
To make smarter kills of others' presidents
Why do we learn history? To fix stories for the guilty?
Make angels look filthy and the devils look milky?
If the victor writes the books then what have we won?
Are we battleships of authorship a rich man's guns?
Do we learn to read to receive the lies
To deceive the eyes from seeing between the lines?
Yo, we use words to bring forth sticks and stones
To sing songs of hate that fill the streets with bones
