Lead
Now everybody throw your hands in the air,
‘Cause now more than ever, Socrates ain’t clear.
Chorus
Yo, this speech ain’t right, the logic isn’t tight,
Socrates sees the light, but Theaetetus is like,
Yo, yo, whatchu talking about, Socrates?
Yo, yo, whatchu talking about?
Yo, this speech ain’t right, the logic isn’t tight,
Socrates sees the light, but Theaetetus is like,
Yo, yo, whatchu talking about, Socrates?
Yo, yo, whatchu talking about?
Verse
And I can’t blame him, I don’t know what he’s saying either,
Waiting for this kid to sit down and take a breather,
We go through perception, false belief and justification,
But wait one minute, there’s building frustration,
Can you discuss knowledge, when you’ve got none of your own?
That’s the real question, unless than wasn’t known,
So, recognize these highs and lows are just stupid,
Watch your mouth, or you might just lose it,
You got that? Aight.

Chorus
Yo, this speech ain’t right, the logic isn’t tight,
Socrates sees the light, but Theaetetus is like,
Yo, yo, whatchu talking about, Socrates?
Yo, yo, whatchu talking about?
Yo, this speech ain’t right, the logic isn’t tight,
Socrates sees the light, but Theaetetus is like,
Yo, yo, whatchu talking about, Socrates?
Yo, yo, whatchu talking about?
Verse
First, we know that knowledge is a type of thought,
Yo, that’s all we got and do we know that or not?
Second, we know that knowledge is different from belief,
It’s true belief, whatever the fuck that means.
So, screw you, Socrates, I can’t read this anymore,
It’s like you stopped trying, and now to even the score,
I’m gonna finish this song as the anger mounts,
Maybe knowledge is true belief with a rational account,
And maybe you’re just stupid, yeah.
