about

In this track I rap a 16 bar verse, then I go back and repeat only the prime numbered words (second, third, fifth, etc.). Then I rap an acrostics for Prime Obsession. Then I rap four acrostics for Klopfenpop.

lyrics

Well IT'S TIME for THIS methodical MIND to get shit STARTED.
I’m RUNNIN’ hot, burnin' diesel ON my PRIME target.
I’ve got THE directive to kill
all undue NUMBERS, disposing WITH composite and nill.

And then PRECISELY I’m eliminatin’ negative, TOO.
It FACTORS right into the WRITIN’ of this verse.
Imbued with RHYMES composed of individual words,
conveyed WITH rhythm, THE factors are articles and verbs.

MATHEMATICAL prose with these SPECS they’re ON sum.
When you go to CHECK your answers the BEST is yet to come.
I BREAK the conventions of this hip hop shit.
OUT for blood, slayin’ YOUR preconceptions.
TEXT is the rift

FOR settin’ YOUR mind free, your BRAIN let out of its cage.
‘Cuz I’m about to repeat this verse--it GETS strange,
‘cuz the WRECKED manner that I retain only PRIME
shows OBSESSION on the part of the author of this rhyme.

It’s time this mind started runnin’ on prime, the numbers with precisely two factors writin’ rhymes with the mathematical specs, on check. Best break out your text ‘fore your brain gets wrecked. Prime Obsession.
