Solving for the x. Step by step Time is clocking theres no time for any misstep Thought I had been getting ready for these arithmetics But now I feel like in anesthetics. Maybe it aint in my genetics These mathematics got me feelin dumb Aint got energy to solve. Ive been feeding myself of crumbs, been livin in a slum Aint easy to have the mind in the equations when everything else is off Balancing these numbers dont go so peasy when all I want to do is tell the world to **** off Because who cares about this x when theres no money in the checkbook I got more problems than the chapters in this textbook Hoping all this senseless calculations will improve my situation But waiting for the future is hard when Im living on a ration Been working all my hours in exchange for some dollars All of this cause my momma said the only ones that make it are the scholars But the work I put in seems to be less than the money I receive. And it all goes away to the bills. Got barely any left to live. Divide the provisions and multiply the meals Make sure that tonights dinner is a bit more than beans Hope that my body has had enough proteins to keep all this going on Because it seems my mind is about to shut down.  Dont know if I can find the answer you were hoping for.
