Huh, aye
(You are now listening to a Bobby Johnson beat)
What? Yeah, aye, aye

Pop the trunk I open up I sold my soul for a good price
Outta' sight, and my hoe got talent right
Whole squad ran through that shit yikes
Ay, I'm a business man, I did my business, damn
But I'ma bend it down and I'ma lick her up, then dick her down
She gon' turn around then I'ma kick her out
She gon' talk that shit but say
How you make it up? How you fake a love?
Holy son, I was the chosen one
I'm sippin' out the grail, she don't kiss and tell
She keep my wishes well, I don't need her, well
How my enemy a friend of me?
Why y'all feed off of my energy? Like I ain't dead yet
Higher entity, foreign bitch that think she into me
Whip the foreign very viciously
Why these dudes wanna take pics with me?
She said she gay but still into me, said she gay still into me
Said that she hates that I'm in the streets
And I said that I hate that I'm in the streets
I wanna blow up and make history
And she said that she hate my Insta feed

Xans don't make you
Xans gon' take you
Xans gon' fake you
Xans gon' betray you

And her pussy tastes like Skittles, what?
Yeah, ay, and you can really taste the rainbow, what? (hah, no)
Yo' bitch just like a Crayola (what, ay)
You can draw her on the table, flip her like some yola
Heart shaped kisses, I really miss my mistress
666, evil bitches want my mentions
Heart shaped kisses, I really miss my mistress
And it's 666, evil bitches want my mentions

Xans don't make you

David Reece "Lil Xan" are you fucking kidding me? Ill say this becsuse you're a grown man manipulating the simple minded masses..Heres a "lil" information...i take xanax(not on a level to just get high) but let me tell you the truth on how it effects the brain...more then just "betray" you


The GABAergic system (GABA receptors) is an inhibitory system, counteracting the Glutamate system (Glutamate receptors), which is excitatory.


GABA and Glutamate regulate action potential traffic.


GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, stops action potentials. (Rest and Digest)


Glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter, starts action potentials or keeps them going. (Fight or Flight) 


Since GABA is inhibitory and Glutamate is excitatory, both neurotransmitters work together to control many processes, including the brain’s overall level of excitation. Under normal conditions these two system are in balance leaning this way or that based on external forces i.e. a bear attack (excitatory system takes over, adrenaline floods the system, muscles tighten, vision and hearing are heightened, mind races, anger takes over etc.)  or i.e. bedding down for the night (Inhibitory system takes over, muscle tension decreases, cortisol levels drop, adrenaline levels drop, body prepares for digestion, sex and sleep.).


Benzodiazepines (as well as alcohol) attach to the GABA-A receptor site of the GABA receptors located on the dendrites of the cell neuron, imitating the natural GABA, signaling to allow a higher than normal flow of Negatively charged chloride Ions to pass though the GABA receptor gate depolarizing the neuron, super-activating the inhibitory system and overly suppressing the Excitatory system.  Benzos also force natural GABA to bind tighter and longer to the cell dendrites signaling thru the GABA-A receptor site to also allow more Negatively charged chloride ions to pass though.  Result = Very relaxed.   


As a result the body up-regulates the Glutamate receptors (Excitatory system) and releases more Glutamate, which then attaches to the Glutamate receptors allowing more Positively changed Sodium and Potassium Ions through counteracting the Negatively changed Chloride Ions and bringing back the overall balance.  If the body has more of a Negative charge it's relaxed, if more of a Positive charge it's more alert.


Where this all goes wrong is when the body and brain, due to being flooded with too many Negatively charged Chloride Ions, start to eliminate a minor yet significant percentage of the GABA receptors on each cell trying to hinder the Chloride ion flow.  When this action fails to work the body and brain take further steps of producing new GABA receptors without the GABA-A Benzo/alcohol/GABA attachment site.  All is well and good until such time as the newly produced GABA receptors now lacking the GABA-A attachment site outnumber the older receptors which still have it.  When this happens those prescribed benzos start to experience interdose withdrawal (Anxiety and Panic while still taking the medication).   Doctors will try to solve this issue by prescribing a higher dose, however, very quickly the body responds by producing more GABA receptors without the GABA-A attachment site, plus will continue to absorb older GABA receptors.  Soon, Tolerance of the med hits. The meds poops out.


While the early days of the above disaster are unfolding the Limbic system of the brain, thyroid, pituitary gland, etc. which are directly attached to the GABAergic system start to misfire and odd states of reality, emotion, fear, anxiety, paranoia, memory, balance, aggression states, sexual arousal etc. become more and more pronounced. Moreso once tapering begins and worse still once off the meds.  Here are the parts of the Limbic system which start to misfire.


Amygdala -  The Aggression/Emotional Center. Responsible for detecting fear and preparing for emergency events.  Fight or flight.  Stimulated, it produces feeling of anger, violence, fear, anxiety.  Damaged, or medicated, can result in a very mellow state of being, hyperorality, hyper sexuality, disinhibited behavior - ignoring social conventions and engaging in dangerous, reckless behavior. Responsible for fear conditioning, the "associative learning process"  where we learn to fear some thing, some place, someone, and/or a social circumstance. 


Hippocampus - Memory and spatial navigation. Forming new and storing memories. Coverts short term memory to long term memory.  Responsible for emotional reactions to past memories and events.


Thalamus - Regulates the body's voluntary motor control, consciousness and its sleep/wake cycle.  It also regulates the senses of sight, sound, taste, touch and the sense of where the person's body is in space.  


Hypothalamus - Produces hormones which control the production of hormones in the pituitary gland. Hypothalamus function is directly related to overall hormone health.  Fight or Flight/Rest and Digest plus body temperature regulation.  Responsible for the release of adrenaline via the autonomic nervous system.  Hunger, thirst, sleep, sex.   


Cingulate Gyrus - processing emotions and behavior regulation. It also helps to regulate autonomic motor function.  Emotional Memory.  Regulates pain and emotion.  Is particularly involved in driving the body's conscious response to unpleasant experiences, therefore the avoidance of negative consequences. 


The end result of this, in part, is the Excitatory Glutamate system is no longer being kept in check by the GABAergic system so it's running wild.  This causes overblown and confused states of mind (anxiety, panic, confusion, memory, depression, phobias, etc.),  body malfunctions (thyroid, putuitary, tachycardia, automonic nervous system, etc.) and pain becomes the norm (neuropathy, lower back, etc.).  To add insult to injury now the patient has to come off the meds, the only substance slowing down the  Excitatory system and giving it even more freedom.  Unfortunately glutamatergic receptors are not homeostatic like GABA receptors, changes to glutamatergic receptors stick around.  Since GABAergic medications or substances no longer work to offset the now raging Excitatory system all one can do is endure it (survive) until such time as new GABA receptors are being created with the GABA-A receptor site.  This is what happens during the healing process (Benzodiazepine Withdrawal Syndrome) and is entirely dictated by the level of damage done by the medications and the genetics of the individual which allow how fast the body and brain grow new GABA receptors with the GABA-A attachment site restoring the broken and off balance systems. 


In the meantime, any substances, or states of mind (Stress), which irritates, or boosts the Excitatory Glutamate system must be avoided.  Items such as sugar, MSG, caffeine, any GABAergic agent (alcohol, St. John's Wort, Camomile, 5HTP, KAVA, Z-drugs [Ambien], etc) and everyday chemicals and foods become landmines as each can cause horrific increases in withdrawal symptoms for the individual, again based on genetics and sensitivities, and since GABA is directly responsible for muscle tone and mass we also experience a wasting, withering physical state.  We lose muscle mass, gain (or massively lose) weight and have an immune system which is barely there all while the body and brain are malfunctioning on a level never imagined possible. 


P.S. For ease of understanding, it only takes one day to burn down a 100 year old forest, but a long time to grow it back..  Your GABA-A receptor forest has been burned down by benzo use.. This forest must regrow and it's takes a long time once GABA agonist use has stopped.  During this time, no GABA agonists can be used, most especially alcohol..  Alcohol is kinda sorta like liquid benzos, and benzos kinda sorta like freeze dried alcohol, they are cousins.  One cannot replace one with the other or healing will never happen and GABA-A recpetor sites will have no reason to regrow.   Also, the two highest concentrations of GABA-A receptors are the stomach/gut and brain.  Which is why those in recovery have so many issues with food, digestion, etc and mental health issues. There are approx 50 Trillion GABA-A receptor sites on the Human Body.. one for nearly every cell.. Every system is impacted..  Every.. System..

while the body and brain are malfunctioning on a level never imagined possible. 


Keep fucking with that slow kill...people crying "rest in peace lil peep" shit say RIP to all the junkies on the corner you wont bat an eye on.

Dumbing down of America at it's finest...the music is good but extremely misleading(guess that's the game. Non thinking docile drug addicted society who can only "flex") why so many people are killing and committing suicide on levels never seen before..opiants and big pharmaceutical drugs..

Waiting on a "lil flakka" next.
