Geekquilibrium Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yo, I’m just a young man with an awkward flow
But I’m a wise man like I’m Dr. No

And I walk this rope, as tight as it might be
But I’m likely to lose my balance just slightly

And I work hard to regain my symmetry
Sometimes it seems I’m my own worst enemy
A friend to me once said to “Do what you love
The money will come as a result thereof”
I should’ve known then, his pants were on fire
Never trust a man wearing flaming attire

The truth is, I’m in a constant fight with myself
Half is openly nerd, the other stays stealth
It’s a struggle within like I’m Harvey Dent
Or I’m living two lives like my name’s Clark Kent
Currently, I’m caught in a constant conflict
Locked in a battle like a war crime convict


[Hook 1]
You can’t test him… You can’t vex him
You can’t question… Because this is next gen
You seem stunned… but this shit’s just begun
So he’s got to grasp his geekquilibrium
You can’t test him… You can’t vex him
You can’t question… Because this is next gen
You seem stunned… but this shit’s just begun
So he’s got to grasp his geekquilibrium
[Verse 2]
Yo, I’m clearly a nerd, but don’t look the part
Severely absurd, nerd rap’s in my heart
So I… peel back the mask, let them peer in
Let them bask in the vast rap task that they’re hearing
This ain’t Nerdcore, man, this is nerd life
This is nerd pride, yeah, man, you heard right
Outside got a mainstream exterior
Inside house my true love for Materia

Or Inferius, the Half-Blood Prince
Think to the future and I often wince

At the idea that nerd life could someday end
And I’d never again see Ryu or Ken

Or justice served… to Uwe Boll
Or the Alliance finally overthrow Thrall
Or get to see the last Riddick movies
Speaking of, what is Vin Diesel doing?


[Hook 1]
You can’t test him… You can’t vex him
You can’t question… Because this is next gen
You seem stunned… but this shit’s just begun
So he’s got to grasp his geekquilibrium
You can’t test him… You can’t vex him
You can’t question… Because this is next gen
You seem stunned… but this shit’s just begun
So he’s got to grasp his geekquilibrium
[Hook 2]
You can’t test him (no), you can’t vex him (no)
You know you really cannot question, no
You can’t test him (no), you can’t vex him (no)
You know it’s sounding hella next gen, so

[Vers 3]
My nerd side is frowned on like the Star Wars prequels
The CDI Zelda game and its two sequels
You fight hard to hold back the baseless attrition
And masked attacks of the faceless physician
But I’m… just too much to contain
To the mainstream ears, my rhymes seem arcane
My aim? To maintain my proportion
It’s got me twisted like a Dan Smith contortion
A portion would love to just stay the course
The other would just love to embrace the force
Of course… so I can use my midi-chlorians

Or 1.21 Jiggawatt DeLorean
My nerd knowledge is vast and untapped
You mix that with rap, I’ve had to adapt
To the next gen Nerdcore rapper of my era
A geek tapping, heat packing, rap chimera

[Hook 1]
You can’t test him… You can’t vex him
You can’t question… Because this is next gen
You seem stunned… but this shit’s just begun
So he’s got to grasp his geekquilibrium
You can’t test him… You can’t vex him
You can’t question… Because this is next gen
You seem stunned… but this shit’s just begun
So he’s got to grasp his geekquilibrium
You can’t test him… You can’t vex him
You can’t question… Because this is next gen
You seem stunned… but this shit’s just begun
So he’s got to grasp his geekquilibrium
You can’t test him… You can’t vex him
You can’t question… Because this is next gen
You seem stunned… but this shit’s just begun
So he’s got to grasp his geekquilibrium
