nahreally & the expert - smarter than i am lyrics

[verse]
this one book thicker than my head
has sat for six months by the side of my bed
the bookmark’s barely past the front cover
in the time it’s been there i’ve read several others
but this particular book has been suggested
by people smarter than me, all of whom i’ve respected
the type of book that if you read it on the train
you’re either being cliche or have a f+cking huge brain
and in the earnest pursuit of becoming the latter
i bought the d+mn book in the name of gray matter
print minuscule, yo, i might need a monocle
what did i expect, man? this thing is canonical
i tried to start once, twice, thrice, quit
now it just sits, leaving me feeling inadequate
i think tomorrow i might leave it on the curb
and let it make some other idiot question their self worth

[chorus]
i wanna be smarter than i am
but if i get smarter, will i wanna be smarter than i am?
i wanna be smarter than i am
but if i get smarter, will i wanna be smarter than i am?
i wanna be smarter than i am
but if i get smarter, will i wanna be smarter than i am?
i wanna be smarter than i am
but if i get smarter, what then?
[verse]
i love nba league pass
but i feel uncultured when people i know ask
if i’ve been streaming the latest thought+provoking
limited+run series that’s truly mind opening
i fear it doesn’t come across as intelligent
to tell ’em i’m busy watching the kings play the pelicans
but i promise i’ll add the show to the list
once i watch the other six i’ve been told that i can’t miss
from time to time i like to drink red wine
but can only describe it as good, bad, or fine
i like art. a museum day? incredible
but i’m not deep in thought, i just ate an edible
it’s weird we associate the entertainment
that people gravitate toward with how big their brain is
where’s the line between seeking understanding
and performing an exercise in personal branding?
