Background

"Just Math" started as a freestyle track titled "Release Day" created by Mike Shinoda live on Twitch on July 10, 2020 using two loops from Sounds.com requested by fans. The working title originated from the fact that the song was started on the day of the listening party for the release of Dropped Frames, Vol. 1. During the stream, he rapped parts of "Bleed It Out", "Wretches And Kings" and "Skin To Bone (Nick Catchdubs Remix)" over it.[1]

Lyrics

Album Version

Is it just math?
16 steps in a four bar clip, yeah
Is it just math?
Halftime, cut it on the grid-grid-grid
We're just trapped
Can’t we just split it in different divisions [?]
Is it just math?
16 steps in a four bar clip

This rhyme designed was primeval
Made live with all of my people
Twitch faces' up when my beat go
Your vinyl ride on my needle
Photoshop option, click a [?]
Or procreate fade, I illustrate castles
Word I excel it out, look at [?]
Microsoft DOS [?] cook your [?] apple

I might be stepping over the limit with it
Footprint is so big, they never fitting in it
My name, they put fang of venom in it
Too sick to put up anothеr minute with it
[?], I am compelled
To do somеthing to them, they hardly can spell
Carried by six of the judge and by 12
I'm adding it up and I’m asking myself
See upcoming rap shows
Get tickets for your favorite artists

Halftime, cut it on the grid-grid-grid
We're just trapped
Can't we just split it in different divisions [?]
Is it just math?
16 steps in a four bar clip-clip-clip-clip-clip-clip-clip-clip-clip

Certified not, I pay great stuff, you say yuck
I don't even get what anybody seeing this stuff
And that's why, buddy, you stay stuck
Living in the painful state you made up
Pushing them down, you never stay up
Looking for a way to take, but not pay it for
It show all the lame you made of

This is a language eternal
Divide ratio written in rhyme
I keep on squaring the circle
They keep on tracing the shape of my lines
Yeah

Is it just math?
16 steps in a four bar clip, yeah
Is it just math?
Halftime, cut it on the grid-grid
We're just trapped
Can't we just split it in different divisions [?]
Is it just math?
16 steps in a four bar clip

F-four clip
Bar clip, yeah
