Psycho
Denzel Curry & slowthai Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Woo
Let's start, punch it

Look at the way I walk, look at the way I talk
Where is the pepper? 'Cause niggas be throwing salt
Mad that I got the sauce, I'ma ball harder
Way harder than Randy Moss, niggas are getting moss
Look at my pockets, boy, fatter than Santa Claus
Know that I set it off, count the racks, and
Tell me what's the cost, tell me what's the cost, yeah
Now you lookin' lost, now you lookin' lost, yeah
Lookin' at my swag, and it's hella posh, yeah
I don't gotta flodge, I don't gotta flodge, yeah

Make that man nervous, she got head service
Wraps around my head, like a damn turban
And I got a new chick, but she ain't Persian
Now it's time to riot, let's start, punch it

Might be a dub to bust at me, on too many drugs to fuck with me
If you die before you hate, I pray the Lord your soul to keep
Wait, back to the topic, you mad 'cause flex ain't an option
Tell me, what's a T-Rex to a comet?
Got your main girl kissin' in my comments

Flow is hysterical, you sound terrible
High off the chemicals, turn you vegetable, why are you cynical?
You are minuscule, drain you of minerals, nothin' but residue
So far ahead of you, I'm terrestrial
Fuck a telephone, need a telescope
Play with some genitals, intellectual
Endin' your sentence or cover the envelope (huh?)
Can't get my steez (why?), never be me
I got a snake in my jeans, heat up the scene, two hundred degrees
Pedigree vettin' the fleas, excessive, your face mushy peas
I got my ways, we in Tel Aviv, think that you're Bella Hadid
Spliff is exhaust, I put your friend in the morgue
Olympics, I run with the torch, mum should've pressed the abort
Huh, spliff is exhaust, I put your friend in the morgue
Olympics, I run with the torch, mum should've pressed the abort, man

Make that man nervous, she got head service
Wraps around my head, like a damn turban
And I got a new chick, but she ain't Persian
Now it's time to riot, let's start, punch it





Riot, riot
Riot, riot

Overall Meaning

In "Psycho," Denzel Curry and slowthai are flexing their wealth and status, taunting those who throw "salt" in their direction. They both have a unique swagger, "look at the way I walk, look at the way I talk," which they assert makes them stand out in a crowd. The lyrics are filled with comparisons, such as how they ball harder than Randy Moss, and how their pockets are "fatter than Santa Claus." They both seem to revel in the fact that they are rich and successful, leaving those who can't keep up "lost" and envious. They have a new love interest who wraps around their head like a "damn turban," and the duo makes it clear that they can have anyone they want, and they are not settling for anything less than what they deserve.


As the verse progresses, Denzel Curry raps his bars with manic energy, leaving little room for the listener to catch their breath. The phrase "Make that man nervous, she got head service" seems like a nod to their ability to make others jealous, with their new chick being the envy of all. The lyrics take a darker turn when Denzel Curry talks about how those who hate him might die before they do so. Later in the song, he raps about how he is so high that he can turn others into "vegetables," leaving them unable to keep up. Both rappers are unapologetic and brash in their lyrics, reminding everyone that they are on top.
