[Intro]
Uh, yea, uh, BET whattup
It's Prince Ea

[Verse 1]
And this the realest ish I ever spoke
Don't get it backwards yo
Get your mind right
You wanna go to school
That's a dumb idea, eff a book, write that hook, get this money yea
We say, in the trap, yea we love that
Me and my homies block brothers, our only option is this block hustle
I'd be lyin' if I said this ain't the meaning of life
Gettin' money, no matter the price
Poppin' bottles is more important than knowledge
That's the way it is, think
You crazy if you listen to that other kid

[Verse 2]
Pshh, listen to that other kid
You crazy if you think that's the way it is
Knowledge is more important than popping bottles
Getting money, no matter the price
This ain't the meaning of life
I'd be lying if I said our only option is this block hustle
Me and my homies block brothers in the trap
Yea, we love that
We say eff a book
Write that hook
Get this money, yea
That's a dumb idea
You wanna go to school
Get your mind right
Don't get it backwards yo
This the realest ish I ever spoke

About Backwards Rappers

Prince Ea, a popular youtube rapper, released his self-proclaimed “Best Video of 2011” on August 8th.

The idea behind the song is that Prince Ea wants to crush today’s popular belief of “money over intelligence”. Prince is basically dissing mainstream rap and claiming that smart rap is the way to go. What do you think?

What’s interesting to note is that the song takes on one meaning when read forwards and a different when you read it backwards.
