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.

Lyrics
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 it
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 quick class
Or procreate fade, I illustrate castles
Word I excel it out, look at past
Microsoft DOS is cooking to an 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 another minute with it
Ciniminis, I am compelled
To do somothing 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
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 it
Is it just math?
16 steps in a four bar clip (clip) [x8]
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 it
Is it just math?
16 steps in a four bar clip
32 steps and a two bar clip
16 steps in a four bar clip yeah
