Lyrics:
[Intro: Frank Calhoune]
AJ On Da Track make it pure, like some crack (crack).
April 13, '99, you got dat?


[Verse: Frank Calhoune]
6.21.88, Tha Calhoune.
2.12, autistic day; thought I was doomed.
One plate = two plates; we both eat.
One minute = too late; we note beat.
Own 32 years = 32 barz.
Manage havin' no fears = 32 parz.
Barely sheddin' a tear, mane; we don't feel darts.
Switch outta fo gears; past & future parts.
1998: Birthdayz, seen a far.
Mind on 100 quick; deemed a star.
A 3.5, it go, "Flick!"; a blunt's tricks.
You pussy not ta take a fuckin' lick; 666.
Valued at buku-buku points; 1,000.
Shmoke & -in' on all due joints; 2000's.
Many don't give up 10 coins; not a dime.
Live life every day of noise; 365.
Find tha hidden gem; it's your 1st friend!
Only one pen; value burst then!
How edibles think; one verse-cued zen!
Success will sink into a penned...
boy named Calhoune; I'm one sent box...
that rap owl tunes wit 40-'cent pot...
in my fowl fumes of 30's-meant drops!
One run-on sentence in penned knots!
Baby of tha 1980's; always gotta get it early!
Rearview feelin' mighty hazy; future 2020's be pearly!
5.28.03 rap baby; out tha mud iz how we made, gee!
R.I.P. Big Figgy-Fancy; out at 37's crazy!
Ten knuckles pop off (pop off, pop off)!
Ten! Like Bumpy Knuckles' bop broth (bop broth; biggy-biggy-broth)!
Fo-Hundred 'grees; hot coughs (hot coughs, hot coughs)!
That's 32 not-soft (not-soft, not-soft)...
Barz!

Breakdown of Frank Calhoune's Lyrics:

"AJ On Da Track make it pure, like some crack (crack)."
- On February 5, 2021, I met up with Baton Rouge's AJ On Da Track to pitch him a beat idea for a track I had in mind called "Numerically Lyrical". I told him that I was rappin' tha whole entire 32 barz back-to-back; our chemistry was awesome. While creatin' tha intro, I added this intro line that now solidifies itself as my own beat tag for AJ On Da Track's productions that I'm on. I also am awarding him with tha tag to use for anything he wants his heart to.

"April 13, '99, you got dat?"
- This iz AJ On Da Track's birthday; to go with tha theme of this song, I made sure numbers were represented. Basically, you know I had ta choose a birthday.

"6.21.88, Tha Calhoune."
- My birthday.

"2.12, autistic day; thought I was doomed."
- On February 12, 2001, at Age 12, I was diagnosed with autism. My mom claimed to have cried that day, after I was diagnosed; it was news to tha family. We didn't know how well I was gon evolve; even tho it took tyme, I have ta say, I evolved great!

"One plate = two plates; we both eat."
- I originally wanted Baton Rouge's Boxx The Hungry Genius to rap tha same vocals as mine, in tha background. However, he turned tha track down after he claimed he "doesn't let anyone ghostwrite for" him. That's where I put tha "two plates" reference of "one" equaling "two," to express that I look out fa my people; "we both eat."

"One minute = too late; we note beat."
- "One" thing that irritates me iz a person's tardiness. Especially buildin' a work ethic while workin' at various places, bein' "late" does affect & leaves a bad effect to tha tasks. By noting tha tardy one's "beat" attitude of tiredness, it's good to bring tha awareness to them that they can do betta.

"Own 32 years = 32 barz."
- I dedicated my age to tha amount of "barz" I wanted to spit on tha track.

"Manage havin' no fears = 32 parz."
- This line iz a reference to scoring a par in golf all "32" tymes, based off of "no fears." Yeah, golf may have a multiple of nine holes but look at tha "32" as "32" consecutive "parz."

"Barely sheddin' a tear, mane; we don't feel darts."
- If an actual number doesn't appear in a line, I use "a" or "tha" as a way to express tha number one. With me bein' brave, I don't shed "a tear," so I "don't feel" anything; I use "darts" as an object to express pain.

"Switch outta fo gears; past & future parts."
- If you're with some1, they have two "gears" & you have two, as well: "past & future."

"1998: Birthdayz, seen a far."
- When I was in elementary school, on November 12, 1998, at Age 10, I wrote down everybody's "birthdayz" I knew. For acquiring such knowledge at Age 10 to remember "birthdayz" was only tha beginning of my ever-growing, autistic mind!

"Mind on 100 quick; deemed a star."
- Always keep your "mind on" maximum ("100" (percent)); you'll win, in tha end!

"A 3.5, it go, "Flick!"; a blunt's tricks."
- I made tha number to focus on "3.5," here & based it off of how much I luv shmokin' weed.

"You pussy not ta take a fuckin' lick; 666."
- I utilized "666" as a way to describe my troubles of dealin' with a "pussy" who chose "not to take a fuckin' lick." Instead, they called tha cops on me & neva approached me in person about my motive of tryna take what I deserved (187 unpaid videoz).

"Valued at buku-buku points; 1,000."
- Gotta value your hard work ethic!

"Shmoke & -in' on all due joints; 2000's."
- When I rap "Shmoke & -in'," it's a quick way to show two different tenses: present & future. Tha "-in'" iz just a shorter way of sayin', "Shmokin'," since I include tha future tense of to "shmoke." As far as tha "joints," I follow up with "2000's" as a way to compare my luv of tha "2000's" era to "shmoke...all due joints" (tracks).

"Many don't give up 10 coins; not a dime."
- Really, people "don't give up" $0.10!

"Live life every day of noise; 365."
- Really, "365" dayz a year, just counteract tha "noise" that may get in your way.

"Find tha hidden gem; it's your 1st friend!
Only one pen; value burst then!"
- When I came up with finding "tha hidden gem," I referenced tha "hidden gem" as obtainin' a video clip of me sayin' this song's title. In tha song, I don't say, "Numerically Lyrical"; I hope one day that obtainin' a video clip of me sayin' tha title can be "your 1st friend." By "1st friend," I mean that it's somethin' that can be worth lots of money, one day. Tha "only one pen" part means that I'm tha only human being that can say, "Numerically Lyrical" & it be worth somethin'. That's how its "value" bursts "then!"

"How edibles think; one verse-cued zen!"
- On January 28, 2021, just eight dayz before AJ On Da Track produced this beat for me, I was fulla "edibles," just picturin' "how" they would "think," on tha track. With it bein' "one verse-cued zen," it's a "zen" (stoned-out environment) of "one verse" that's been "cued," right here.

"Success will sink into a penned...
boy named Calhoune; I'm one sent box...
that rap owl tunes wit 40-'cent pot...
in my fowl fumes of 30's-meant drops!
One run-on sentence in penned knots!"
- Keeping my interesting flow goin', I decided ta use a run-on sentence as a way to spit some rhymes. One sentence, which iz usually one bar, iz a whopping four barz, here. I'm basically rappin' about tha "success" that "will sink into" my pockets, one day. These "owl tunes" that I rap gon be tha catchy ones, in tha underworld of tha undaground. Tha "40-'cent pot" iz "40-"percent "pot"; I just take one syllable outta "percent". It's also a reference to tha potency level I've reached in tha best weed I've shmoked, roundin' up. Tha "30's-meant drops" part iz a reference to my age group, "30's."

"Baby of tha 1980's; always gotta get it early!"
- I'm known ta be a leader; I luv my "1980's" upbringin'.

"Rearview feelin' mighty hazy; future 2020's be pearly!"
- While tha past was a bitchy haze to get through, I just know that this decade of "2020's" gon be mighty "pearly"; I can feel it!

"5.28.03 rap baby; out tha mud iz how we made, gee!"
- On May 28, 2003, I rapped for tha 1st tyme; I done came a long way since!

"R.I.P. Big Figgy-Fancy; out at 37's crazy!"
- It was tha 10th anniversary of Baton Rouge's "Big...Fancy"'s death, when I wrote tha lyrics. To know that I'm 32 & he was "out at 37," to me, iz mindblowin'. I can't believe I'm less than five years away from his last age! I also wish that he could've lived longer, if he controlled his weight & dialysis.

"Ten knuckles pop off (pop off, pop off)!
Ten! Like Bumpy Knuckles' bop broth (bop broth; biggy-biggy-broth)!"
- Boxx The Hungry Genius iz managed by Mississippi/Baton Rouge's "Bumpy Knuckles." "Knuckles" was networkin' wit me, back when Fancy was still alive; I wanted to pay homage to "Knuckles," somehow. I combined "knuckles" with "pop off," referencin' when you crack your "knuckles." "Pop" It "Off" Promotions iz also tha name of "Bumpy Knuckles'" management services. As far as "Bumpy Knuckles' bop broth," well, I've never had any "broth" from "Knuckles," before; I just said some shit to rhyme nice. I bet he does make "bop broth"--"biggy-biggy-broth," that iz!

"Fo-Hundred 'grees; hot coughs (hot coughs, hot coughs)!
That's 32 not-soft (not-soft, not-soft)...
Barz!"
- I compared my THC-based "coughs" to be "hot," just like "fo-hundred" degrees. I also ended tha track wit how I congratulated myself on "32 not-soft barz," all featurin' a numerical reference!
