In Pa… Read Full Bio ↴On “A2Z,” Logic teaches his son — Little Bobby — the alphabet.
In Part I, each of his bars throughout the song hit on each letter in the alphabet whether it be direct or subliminal.
Logic uses an old, embarrassing recording from 2005 — his first song — in Part II in an attempt to show people what he really started out as.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah? You wanna learn your ABCs? Yeah?
Yeah, let's do it
Yeah, A, I been real that's all I ever knew how to be
Fuck what you heard, I only write what I see
Second I deploy, I destroy 'til the tank on E
The underdog, they wouldn't bank on meF 'em all, I feel the beat in my heart like cholesterol, check the EKG
HNIC, ain't nobody flyer then me
Not a single one of you that I know conspire to be
I hit the J and get as high as can be
Okay, maybe not as high as can be
I'm a businessman, I got important people to see
Mainly No I.D. cooking up in studio D
That underground shit, L train across town shit
This that Nas, it's like Queensbridge, king, crown shit
Study my lyricism whenever you and your friends meet
I got enough M's in the bank to make ends meet
Oh my God, get gritty, '96 P Diddy, setting fire to the city
Keep it real, keep it true, sicker then the flu
You can smoke government dope and not get higher then my IQ
Are you ready? I'm calm my arms are steady
I'm armed and ready, digging in you like a machete
Surprise, confetti
You going to need more than bed rest when I hit you with these 26 bullets, no excess
I never went to school, never went to MIT, but my imagination is out of this world like MIB
Who are you to me? These other rappers envy me, the MVP, born and raised in MD, get it B
Don't get it confused, fuck the style everyone use
Switch up the rhythm every track, flows, I never double use
X marks the spot, every day I give what I got
That's why I'm on top, steady running shit and you not
You steadily flop, every album steadily drop
Think you can do it 'cause I do it? Come now, boy, better stopTryna take me out? My advice is aim for the top
I know I make rapping look easy, but promise its not
Bob's Demo 2005

Nah, on the second thought I can't play this
Come on, man
Play that shit, man
Come on, nigga, play that shit
Never one to flip scripts
I'm more raw then imaginary rubbers
Rain in the gutter, my talented knife cutter
Always flowing venomous, never rolling in regiments
Whipping riddles, intelligence, you copy then we settle in
Possibilities is endless, you'll never catch me pen-less
Suicidal lyrics, controversy like stem-cell research
Ain't no time to compromise, my rhymes immortalized
Visualize as I vocalize, worldly lies, that we're hypnotized
Staring into space like the Enterprise
Contemplating on words that shall arise
Mentality merciless, never sympathize
Yeah
Smoking weed in gazebos, incognito
Attracting more microphones than Magneto and that's real
Blunts keep rolling like bitches on E pills
In "A2Z", Logic is drawing attention to his lyrical skills and his commitment to being true to himself. He begins the song by declaring that he has always been real and writes based on what he has seen, not what he has heard. He then goes on to mention how he destroys everything around him and that he is an underdog that nobody would have banked on. In the song, Logic proudly declares his accomplishments, including having enough money in the bank to make ends meet. He also emphasizes how he doesn't follow the same style that every other rapper uses and that he consistently switches up his rhythms in every track he releases. He warns other rappers that it's not easy rapping, and that they better aim for the top if they want to take him out.
Later in the song, Logic raises the stakes with more complex wordplay. He makes references to the Starship Enterprise and Imaginary Rubber to use descriptive metaphors. He mentions that he never runs out of lyrics and that when others copy him, they eventually settle in with his style. Logic then goes on to discuss how he visualizes himself and the world around him through his lyrics expressed in complex wordplay. He ends with references about smoking weed and mentions about attracting more microphones than Magneto.
