Performance, Feedback, Revision 2.0
Baba Brinkman

Performance, feedback, revision that’s how these vocals get written

I got a book full of scribbles, put a rhyme to the test then I fix it

Performance, feedback, revision that’s how I mastered this rhythm

It took a bit of practice but I cracked it now I rap with mad precision

Performance, feedback, revision that’s art and architecture

And engineering, that’s how we peer into the dark with guesswork

Performance, feedback, revision that’s the scientific method

You put a hypothesis to a double blind test, and if it isn’t right then reject it

Performance, feedback, revision that’s how your brain is wired

Behaviors that fire together can bind together and change desires

Performance, feedback, revision that’s your immune system

Antibodies react to pathogens and reproduce when a new one gets in

Performance, feedback, revision that’s natural selection

Some genes die and others survive and which is which is fitness

Performance, feedback, revision this isn’t just music

It’s descent with modification, and you owe your whole existence to it


Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

I scratch with my pen

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Go tell a friend



Every single strand of DNA in a cells is a masterpiece

Written by a genius, not God, nah, selected naturally

Performance, feedback, revision: evolution crafted genes

Just like mine, so I could write rhymes, to entice your mind to attract to me

Why? ‘Cause my passions just happen to get up in your synapses

And that makes women wanna mate, and men wanna make strategic ties happen

And sometimes women wanna make the ties, and that’s okay, I like friendships

And sometimes men wanna mate… thanks, but that’s not my preference

I got friends who lean that way, and that’s fine, it’s just a side-effect of

How their gay genes got made – by leaving live descendents

Yeah, you’re just a phenotype, performing all the genes inside

Living things only seem designed, ‘cause you can’t see how they’ve been revised

And the feedback lies in evolution’s brutal gaze

Either you have babies who have babies or get boo-ed off stage

But I ain’t evolution’s slave; just like you I like to get laid

And we can choose not to reproduce in this conceptive age


Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again


Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

I scratch with my pen

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Go tell a friend


So now you probably wanna know how a flow this dope gets written

Performance, feedback, revision plus a beat by Mr. Simmonds

My words impregnate your brain, does it give you morning sickness?

Or do you wanna spread it like an epidemic, and try to get some folks to listen?

Either way you can’t escape it, love me or hate me, you form an opinion

And your feedback comes back to me, and I make an informed decision

Should I change and adapt, or stick to the script and stay on track with it?

Oh I don’t black enough? Okay, should I switch it and fake my accent?

And if I did, and you call me a liar, then I’ll probably just say

That I’m just caught up in the game, just doin’ my thing and I’m not just playing

How you think I learned how to rap? You think I just turned on a track

And the words just splashed on the page like magic, and I never had to turn nothin’ back?

Performance, feedback, revision, that’s how I got this way

And in spite of what they might say, it’s the same for Lady Gaga and Dr. Dre

Performance, feedback, revision, that’s how you got your nature

And that’s how you re-create yourself through improvisation


Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

I scratch with my pen

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Performance, feedback, revision repeat again

Go tell a friend


(freestyle)

Every single word you heard on the track until this point was written rhymes

But now it’s time for me to switch it up and give you something improvised

‘Cause just like Jay-Z and Lil Wayne I can freestyle for days

With no mistakes, except it takes me eighty eight takes

When I spit my shit that’s how I mutate my genes

And you can interact with my lyrics like a Turing Machine

Yup, ‘cause I’m reppin’ Darwinism everytime I record to the rhythm

It takes a lotta mutations to make an organism

It takes a whole lotta mutations to make an organism… shit
