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
