Yo on the real, my life is crazy like in movies,
I've been searching for years for gold, jewels and rubies.
I finally have a treasure map, and it’s old,
I’m in the Dungeon of Axes, and it's cold.
And it’s booby-trapped so I need to know,
Where to find the traps and where to find the gold.
Lucky for me, my map? It glows,
It’s a coordinate plane, let’s see what it holds:

The x-axis is a number line,
It goes across the map, it’s really wide.
And the y-axis isn’t wide, it’s tall,
It goes up and down my map, that's all.
Where they cross? That’s the origin,
Where I entered the dungeon, and where I begin.
That’s where x = 0, and y does too,
If I didn’t understand that, I wouldn’t have a clue.

Feeling richer than a boss,
My x-axis goes across,
My y-axis, it climbs.
So when I graph, I graph (x,y),
And get paid on a plane, now let’s ride...

Yeah, so my graph is empty... but wait!
Below is a list of things that I need to locate:
There is a pit at (2,5),
What does that mean? If I don’t know I might die.
Then I see it says (x,y),
So the x-coordinate is first, and then y,
So (2,5)? I count 2 to the right,
Then I count 5 up on the y, alright.

Right there, is a point, that would be a pit,
I put P on the map, yeah that’s it.
There’s a swinging blade at (3,1),
So I count 3 on the x-axis, son.
I count one up on the y,
I put a B for blade on the spot, no lie.
(2,5) and (3,1) are both ordered pairs,
A pair of numbers that will show me where.

The treasure itself is at (3,6),
I plot that point on the map real quick.
And then I count out my steps,
Until I see so much gold that it takes away my breath.

Feeling richer than a boss,
My x-axis goes across,
My y-axis, it climbs.
So when I graph, I graph (x,y),
And get paid on a plane, now let’s ride...
