Two birds, one stoned, you get geese’d when trees rolled Joey Bada$$ (Ft. Capital STEEZ) – Killuminati

“Two birds, one stone,” is an idiomatic expression meaning to complete two tasks with one act. He is saying you get as high as geese (two birds flying) when you hit his weed (a stoner is someone who smokes pot)

he’s also referring to chicks as birds. he’s got two bitches and 1 is stoned. you get “geese’d” or tricked to do some next shit when smoking with him

We gave y'all Sur' Tactics, so y'all can’t even gas us
We taught you how to be prepared but still attacking the masses Joey Bada$$ – World Domination

Joey is referencing the track Survival Tactics also on the 1999 mixtape. He taught you the Art of War and you still can’t beat him? He’s also playing on the word ‘gas’ as in chemical attack and as in trying to get him hyped up

But be patient, my studies prove Egyptians ain't shit
Cause I believe that we could be like Neo in "The Matrix"
But fuck it, I'm erratic, momma lock me in the attic please Joey Bada$$ – World Domination

following the previous line.. Joey can’t remember what’s right or not therefore he uses a play on the word ancient which also sounds like ancient. Saying that egyptians aint shit and ancient at the same time.

As advanced as the Egyptians were (do your studying if you don’t know), @JoeyBadass knows they “aint shit” (as well as ancient) because like the movie The Matrix shows us, the power is within once you open and efficiently use your third eye.

They like "Yo Joey, you rude", I'm like "If only you knew
I'm only in school for cosmology, that's why I act as lonely as you" Joey Bada$$ – World Domination

Yes joey is rude but no one understands him. Back in high school he felt lonely because he was only interested in school to learn about the cosmos.

Figured that was what you meant, but I also like the potential school (logos) of high school cosmo-readers (my guess: your average bad bitches (farfetched, sure :) ))

I thought it could be a way of saying that he is among the stars in society, since cosmology is the study of space + stars.

Kind of sounds like a play on words here, too.

“These bars like art in the Smithsonian”

vs

“These bars like guarding the Smithsonian” as if the bars were so great that the Smithsonian was in a jail cell behind Joey’s bars.

I agree, but just to clarify the second part, “These bars like guarding the Smithsonian”; he could be saying that his bars are so beefy/legit/strong/etc. that they could be guarding something as prestigious and important as the smithsonian.

That’s what I meant. The smithsonian being that presitigious/important thing that his bars are guarding.

Puffin' on stramonium, underground like potholes but going fossil Joey Bada$$ – World Domination

His music is mainly underground hip hop and becoming as legendary underground as fossils.

Also, a play on the word “fossil” also means “far so..”

The stramonium part is likely a reference to ‘datura stramonium’, the name of the MF DOOM/ metal fingers instrumental this song samples
