[Verse] Walk in the room, yeah we locked in, chalk dust in the oxygen, nonstop spin on the graph, no option Short line, brain locked in He talk slope, rise over run, whole class runnin numbers, no gun, just functions in the function Short phrase, no frontin Eyes red from the homework, but the homework turn a slow mind bold, that’s growth in production Short breath, long instruction He turn a bored kid into a cold kid, goated with the board, whole board lookin structured, no corruption Short flex, no interruption [Chorus] Mr. Nelson got me locked in, locked in, locked in Long phrase, same phrase From the bell to the block, we locked in, locked in Short phrase, repeat All the stress in my head get boxed in, boxed in, boxed in Longer run, word spun Turned a F to a slope that’s top ten, top ten Short punch, again [Verse 2] Rate of change on my paper, heart rate changin, pager vibratin, still he keep my focus in the frame, no static Short jab, automatic He break it down, step by step, no panic, each example cinematic, whole class lean over, fanatic Short fragment, emphatic Talk units over time, that grind, that climb, that line from the bell curve into habit so automatic Short thought, ecstatic Now I’m movin through word probs sprintin, brain mint condition, from his drill repetitions, that’s magic, not tragic Short boast, pragmatic [Prechorus] Who turned my confusion into clean notation? Short ask Mr. Nelson with the calm voice, no vacation from explanation Longer cascade [Chorus] Mr. Nelson got me locked in, locked in, locked in Long phrase, same phrase Linear dreams on the board, we locked in, locked in Short snap, twin Turnin questions in my head to options, options, options Long spin, twin consonants Every class feelin less boxed in, boxed in Short end, locked in [Verse
