Psycho
B.T.C. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see you

I see you looking at me
Looking at me, so I ask

Am I a psycho?
Am I a psycho?
Yeah I'm a psycho
I guess I'm a psycho

You're crazy! I like you, but you're crazy
My tours paid me, so I used that dough to allure ladies
To manure bathe me
Never that, my mind's for sure shady
Pure Hades, Rev X said that he couldn't endure to save me
Why do I let this stripper burn me on my arm with a cigarette
In the same spot ten times in a row?
When I felt that burn, I palm the clitoris, I'ma get her wet
Sorry to get carried away
I feel stupid 'cause I ain't did her yet
Maybe she never let a fine nigga stare at her breasts
I get vexed so N9ne bit her neck
Open! I try to contain it, but that dame thang's soakin'
Alter ego say, "Why you let them gangbang folk in?"
Strange Lane hopin' I can maintain copin'
But ain't nobody talkin' when the insane mane spoken
I like fire on my skin, blood on my draws
From up on her walls, I'm sufferin', I'm stuck in her claws
Stuffed in her jaws, huffin' and puffin', hollerin', I'm a dog
Afterwards I like really hot scaldin' water on my balls

Am I a psycho?
Am I a psycho?
Yeah I'm a psycho
I guess I'm a psycho

Mom? Dad? I'm no longer the boy you're used to seein'
I've changed a lot, plus I've grown to hate every human bein'
My mood swings have now turned
My dreams into gruesome scenes
Now I'm doin' things I don't normally do when illusion seem
To be the only pleasures I can gain
Heck, if I was sane I would've put down the mic
And said, "Fuck it, I'll never rise to fame."
But with the wicked wreckage I contain
I could probably jeopardize your name
No lovey-dovey, let's ignite the flame
If you're lucky you'll survive the pain
Sorry, that ain't very merry to say
Why is this game so scary to play?
Well, let me think, 'cause every day
My balls are gettin' too hairy to shave
Pause a minute, I'm stressin' again
If I go to Hell, then Heaven's to blame
I don't mean to come off crazy
But you motherfuckas seem to think I'm hella deranged
When I was seven years old
I fell on my head and I severed my brain
You think I'm lyin'? Then ask my mama
Nigga, she'll go tell you the same
Should I be ashamed? No
I'm livin' my life so ghetto fabulous
Before you get bent out of shape, my nigga, let me ask you this

Am I a psycho?
Am I a psycho?
Yeah I'm a psycho
I guess I'm a psycho

I stab you with this mic
And rap this verse I'm rappin' to you
Matter fact I'm rapping through you
Never say my motherfucking name
Unless you absolutely have to, I am not no fucking jacket
With no matching shoes
And you are not no fashion guru
Can't even see you niggas
Y'all wish I was rappin' to you
Matter of fact act like I'm rappin' to you
If that gives you passion
To use this as an excuse
Then just jump up out of conclusion
That I'm attackin' you dudes
Is just like old fashion voodoo
Y'all ain't even the shit,
No y'all ain't even the doodoo
I got more flavor on the tissue paper under my two boots
So I'm slapping you foolish
With wooden paddles you stupid
Baby sitting little bastards like little afternoon children
You can call me psychotic
But it's more like schizophrenic
And I can't sleep, can anyone tell me just where my medicine is
Guess I gotta show these minors just what my avenue is
Man I swear I'm all up out of my brain like graduate students
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings
I see your tears, come here
Give me your face, let me clear it
But I wonder how it would look
If I were to peel it back with a skillet
Then I'ma feel it crack when I hit it
Then I'ma split it back when you heal it
Damn it Bobby boy, what in the hell
What in the heaven, what in the earth
Where is your mom? What are you cursed?
Where are you from?
Where was your birth? Where was you first?
Why weren't you in church?
Why is there dirt, all on your shirt?
Man I think that you're going berserk

Am I a psycho?
Am I a psycho?
Yeah I'm a psycho
I guess I'm a psycho

Am I a psycho? (Psycho)
Am I a psycho? (Psycho)




Yeah I'm a psycho (psycho)
I guess I'm a psycho (psycho, psycho, psycho)

I see you looking at me
I notice that you are observing me


Looking at me, so I ask
Since you are staring at me, I inquire

Do I possess psychotic tendencies?


Yeah I'm a psycho
Yes, I admit to having psychotic traits


I guess I'm a psycho
I suppose I can be considered a psycho


You're crazy! I like you, but you're crazy
You are mentally unstable! However, I am fond of you despite your instability


My tours paid me, so I used that dough to allure ladies
I earned money from my performances, and I used it to entice women


To manure bathe me
They showered me in their lies and deceit


Never that, my mind's for sure shady
Certainly not, my thoughts are undoubtedly suspicious


Pure Hades, Rev X said that he couldn't endure to save me
It was like hell, Reverend X admitted that he couldn't bear to rescue me


Why do I let this stripper burn me on my arm with a cigarette
Why do I allow this stripper to harm me by pressing a lit cigarette against my arm


In the same spot ten times in a row?
Repeatedly targeting the exact same area?


When I felt that burn, I palm the clitoris, I'ma get her wet
When I experienced that sensation, I massage the sensitive area, arousing her


Sorry to get carried away
Apologies for becoming overly excited


I feel stupid 'cause I ain't did her yet
I feel foolish because I haven't engaged with her sexually yet


Maybe she never let a fine nigga stare at her breasts
Perhaps she has never allowed an attractive man to gaze upon her breasts


I get vexed so N9ne bit her neck
I become irritated, so N9ne bit her neck


Open! I try to contain it, but that dame thang's soakin'
Release! I attempt to control it, but that woman's presence is intoxicating


Alter ego say, 'Why you let them gangbang folk in?'
My alternate persona questions, 'Why do you allow yourself to associate with gang members?'


Strange Lane hopin' I can maintain copin'
In an unfamiliar situation, I hope I can handle and cope with it


But ain't nobody talkin' when the insane mane spoken
However, nobody dares to speak when the irrational side of me emerges


I like fire on my skin, blood on my draws
I enjoy the sensation of fire against my skin, bloodstains on my undergarments


From up on her walls, I'm sufferin', I'm stuck in her claws
I am suffering and trapped, entangled in her metaphorical claws


Stuffed in her jaws, huffin' and puffin', hollerin', I'm a dog
Pressured and overwhelmed, panting heavily, shouting, like a dog in distress


Afterwards I like really hot scaldin' water on my balls
Following that experience, I enjoy applying extremely hot water to my testicles


Mom? Dad? I'm no longer the boy you're used to seein'
Mother? Father? I have changed, I am not the same boy you are accustomed to


I've changed a lot, plus I've grown to hate every human bein'
I have transformed significantly and developed a strong dislike for every human being


My mood swings have now turned my dreams into gruesome scenes
My unpredictable emotional changes have transformed my dreams into horrifying events


Now I'm doin' things I don't normally do when illusion seem
Now I am engaging in behavior that is out of character, when things seem unreal


To be the only pleasures I can gain
These abnormal actions provide the only satisfaction I can attain


Heck, if I was sane I would've put down the mic
If I had any sanity left, I would have stopped pursuing a career in music


And said, 'Fuck it, I'll never rise to fame.'
I would have given up and accepted that I will never achieve fame


But with the wicked wreckage I contain
However, with the chaotic destruction that lies within me


I could probably jeopardize your name
I have the ability to potentially harm your reputation


No lovey-dovey, let's ignite the flame
This is not a romantic endeavor; instead, let's spark the fire of chaos


If you're lucky you'll survive the pain
If you are fortunate, you may endure the suffering


Sorry, that ain't very merry to say
Apologies, but it is not a joyful statement to make


Why is this game so scary to play?
Why does this endeavor provoke such fear?


Well, let me think, 'cause every day
Well, allow me to contemplate, as each day


My balls are gettin' too hairy to shave
My testicles are becoming excessively hairy to groom


Pause a minute, I'm stressin' again
Take a moment to pause, I am once again experiencing stress


If I go to Hell, then Heaven's to blame
If I end up in Hell, it is because Heaven is at fault


I don't mean to come off crazy
I do not intend to appear insane


But you motherfuckas seem to think I'm hella deranged
However, you individuals seem to believe I am extremely mentally disturbed


When I was seven years old, I fell on my head and I severed my brain
At the age of seven, I suffered a head injury that severely damaged my brain


You think I'm lyin'? Then ask my mama
If you believe I am dishonest, consult my mother


Nigga, she'll go tell you the same
She will confirm my statement


Should I be ashamed? No
Should I feel guilty? Absolutely not


I'm livin' my life so ghetto fabulous
I am embracing a glamorous yet gritty lifestyle


Before you get bent out of shape, my nigga, let me ask you this
Before you become upset, my friend, allow me to pose a question


I stab you with this mic
I metaphorically attack you with my microphone


And rap this verse I'm rappin' to you
While delivering this verse, I am conveying a message to you


Matter fact I'm rapping through you
In fact, I am rapping using you as a conduit


Never say my motherfucking name
Do not mention my name disrespectfully


Unless you absolutely have to, I am not no fucking jacket
Only mention my name if it is absolutely necessary, I am not an insignificant item of clothing


With no matching shoes
Without any accompanying footwear


And you are not no fashion guru
And you are certainly not an expert in fashion


Can't even see you niggas
I don't even consider you individuals worthy of attention


Y'all wish I was rappin' to you
You all hope that I am addressing you in my lyrics


Matter of fact act like I'm rappin' to you
In fact, pretend as if I am directing my words specifically to you


If that gives you passion
If that instills passion within you


To use this as an excuse
To employ this as a justification


Then just jump up out of conclusion
Then simply abandon your previous assumption


That I'm attackin' you dudes
That I am targeting you guys aggressively


Is just like old fashion voodoo
It resembles traditional dark magic


Y'all ain't even the shit, no y'all ain't even the doodoo
You all aren't even noteworthy, no, you are not even feces


I got more flavor on the tissue paper under my two boots
I possess more style and uniqueness on the tissue paper beneath my boots


So I'm slapping you foolish
Therefore, I am metaphorically striking you with foolishness


With wooden paddles you stupid
Using wooden paddles to administer punishment, you ignorant individuals


Baby sitting little bastards like little afternoon children
I am supervising and dealing with troublesome individuals, similar to babysitting misbehaving children


You can call me psychotic
You may label me as psychotic


But it's more like schizophrenic
However, it is more akin to schizophrenia


And I can't sleep, can anyone tell me just where my medicine is
I am unable to sleep, is there anyone who can inform me of the whereabouts of my medication


Guess I gotta show these minors just what my avenue is
I suppose I need to demonstrate to these inexperienced individuals what my path consists of


Man I swear I'm all up out of my brain like graduate students
I swear I am completely detached from reality, similar to graduate students deeply immersed in their studies


I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings
Apologies, I did not intend to cause you emotional distress


I see your tears, come here, give me your face, let me clear it
I observe your tears, come closer, allow me to wipe them away and soothe you


But I wonder how it would look if I were to peel it back with a skillet
However, I am curious about the visual appearance if I were to peel your face off using a frying pan


Then I'ma feel it crack when I hit it
Subsequently, I will experience satisfaction when your face fractures upon impact


Then I'ma split it back when you heal it
Then I will separate the skin when it eventually heals


Damn it Bobby boy, what in the hell
Damn it, Bobby boy, what on earth is happening


What in the heaven, what in the earth
What in heaven's name, what on earth is going on


Where is your mom? What are you cursed?
Where is your mother? Have you been cursed?


Where are you from? Where was your birth? Where was you first?
Where do you originate from? Where were you born? Where was your initial existence?


Why weren't you in church? Why is there dirt, all on your shirt?
Why did you not attend church? Why is there dirt covering your shirt?


Man I think that you're going berserk
I believe that you are losing control of your sanity


Am I a psycho? (Psycho)
Am I truly a psycho?


Am I a psycho? (Psycho)
Do I exhibit psychotic traits?


Yeah I'm a psycho (psycho)
Yes, I acknowledge that I am a psycho


I guess I'm a psycho (psycho, psycho, psycho)
I suppose I can be considered a psycho
