[Intro]

If you trust Metro Lyrics, I’mma shoot you

[Verse 1]

Why is Genius as hard as it gets?

Cause our site is designed to keep the knowledge in check

And why did Dan Gilbert go and cut that check?

Cuz it’s a mission-driven vision, of scholars in debt

Why you gonna go to the party and not know the rhymes?

‘Cause you didn’t go to Genius and study the lines

Desiigner video went viral, viewed 10 million times

But without an advertisement, we didn’t make a dime

Why’d the Congresswoman go and send that letter?

Why go to AZ or Metro — we’re so much better

Why’d they make us do this assignment in groups?

With Spotify, go behind the lyrics and learn the truth

Why did Daniel press the spacebar for LRC?

Genius is the biggest meme since the MP3

Graduated from Genius Beta

Now we add liner notes and metadata

Why did @Tyrant change his name to @Michael?

Dropping fact tracks faster than Ben’s motorcycle

We teach you about artists’ creative process

News Genius annotates all of the nonsense

Community of scholars give you context

Transcribers get it right, not the wrong text

Like DJ Khaled, all we do is win

Genius is here to make learning great again
