Flash Of Rationality

Sometimes I have a flash of rationality
But most times I do just what I'm gone do
It's easy for me to see what I already see
Ain't got time for inconvenient truths
I'm just a man I ain't no machine
I do the math the way it suits me
Don't get me wrong you're making some sense
But I'll think I'll go before I'm convinced
Sometimes I start to think I might be pretty smart
Then I up and meet somebody who really is
I put a lotta books in my cart but I usually don't have the heart
To keep on reading if I think I got the gist
I know just enough about enough stuff
To nod when you bring something up
Talking out of my ass is my M.O
I'm trying to learn to say I don't know
Sometimes I have a flash of rationality
But most times I do just what I'm gone do
It's easy for me to see what I already see
Ain't got time for inconvenient truths
