Crystal Ball
ICP Lyrics

Look in my crystal ball it's alright
Welcome to my realm, put a donation in the jar and let's have a seat while I peer into the future

(That's right, take a seat)
I urge you to get comfortable as we delve into the unknown

Ain't no smokin in here, I need to keep my ball clear
I need to maintain focus and clarity to provide accurate predictions; smoking would cloud my judgment

There's spirits in there
I sense the presence of otherworldly beings within my crystal ball

(Whats your future, someone gonna shoot ya?)
Do you seek insight into your fate? Will someone harm you in the future?

Will you get your girlfriend back, as if I know that
I cannot guarantee the specific outcomes you desire; I can only offer guidance for your soul's journey

I can only tell you where your soul is headed
My predictions are based on the trajectory of your spiritual destiny

And will remain eternally embedded, the rest forget it
Your soul's path is set in stone and cannot be changed by minor decisions and events in your life

(Life is nothin but a test to clear)
Your earthly existence is a trial that will put your character and morality to the test

Did you have a heart while you were here
Did you live your life with compassion and kindness towards others?

And was it sincere?
Did your love and empathy come from a genuine place?

Your still unravelling your future right now
Your future is still being determined by the actions and decisions you make in the present

What kinda person are ya bro? (oh, where do you go?)
Who you are and what you do will shape your destiny, where do you see yourself going?

You control your own muthafuckin' destiny
You have the power to shape your future through your choices and actions

I aint lettin' the devil get the best of me
I refuse to let temptation and evil influences steer me off my path

(I'mma make it into Shangri La) golden walls
I aspire to reach a blissful afterlife, metaphorically represented as paradise with golden walls

Whats up with you check your own crystal ball
You must take control of your own future by making your own decisions and following your intuition

Lookin in my crystal ball, I'm seein' thugs
I perceive aggression and violence in the future

Both catchin' and firin' slugs (paper for drugs)
Guns and drugs will be prominent elements in these violent scenarios

I see a line waiting on block cheese a mile long
People are eager to receive government assistance and welfare, represented by the block cheese

all tryin to be strong (It's the same old song)
People are putting on a façade of strength and resilience, despite finding themselves in the same situations as always

But when I'm lookin' into everybody's faces (smile)
Despite their attempts to hide it, I can see the pain and desperation in their expressions

They souls are headed other places
Their souls are moving towards a negative, unfulfilling destination

And they ain't worried about payin' them dues down here
They are not concerned with making good decisions in their current lives that will impact their future afterlife

(Because they mother fuckin' future is crystal clear)
These individuals have made so many poor choices that their future outcomes have become inevitable and hopeless

The focus switches to you and it ain't good
Now I see that your future is headed towards a negative direction

All mad cause someone rolls up out they neighborhood
You harbor resentment towards those who leave your neighborhood and strive for success elsewhere

Check your self, if judgment was passed
Take a critical look at your life and actions

Yo, you'd be in hell (right up in the asshole)
If you were judged by an all-knowing entity, you would be condemned to a negative afterlife

The hatin' will get ya if ya let it, pack your speedo's
If you continue to hold onto grudges and hatred, it will consume you; pack your bags and leave that negativity behind

I hear it's hot where you headed
If you do not make positive choices and change your ways, you will end up in a negative afterlife

I'm trying to tell ya now (when the grim reaper calls)
I am attempting to warn you in advance to avoid an unpleasant future

You dont wanna be asked out grippin' your crystal balls
You do not want to die with regrets and fear, wishing you had made better choices in life

Look into my crystal ball its all black
I see only negativity and darkness in your future

And everybody's frozen in time front to back
Everyone is stuck in their path and unable to move forward or progress

They're controlled by the matrix of mind, body and soul
People are hindered and trapped by societal constructs that control their thoughts, physical bodies, and spiritual selves

And I'm branded by the system of carnival freakshow
I oppose societal norms and am rejected as a result

I see the pain and the lies cuz nothin' is disguised
I am able to see through the lies and deceit, and recognize the pain present in people's lives

It's as simple as me seein' the death in the demon's eyes
I can easily recognize and identify evil forces at work in the world

I'm hidin' my sight from the truth of my crystal ball
I am avoiding the harsh reality of what my visions reveal

Believe me when I say that we comin' for all of y'all
Myself and my associates plan to oppose societal norms and expectations that seek to control and limit us

See the dead smokin' on trees and drinkin' alchohol
In the afterlife, people continue with the same vices they had in life

Underneath the street beneath the concrete
Even below the surface-level veneer of society, there are negative forces at work

If you listen to the night you can hear my heart beat
If you are in sync with the natural world, you can sense my revolutionary spirit and desire for change

All painted up carryin' an axe and shit
I am proud of and embrace my outsider status, even if it means being ridiculed and rejected

Juggalo love got each others backs and shit
Myself and my associates support and care for each other and recognize the importance of shared struggles

Encased in glass for the whole world to see
We are a rare and unique group of individuals who stand out and are seen by the world

Am I inside, or is the crystal ball inside of me
Has the crystal ball changed the way I perceive the world, or have I changed it with my perceptions and beliefs?

rain comes down (Lookin my crystal ball it's alright)
The rain is a soothing presence and reassures me that everything will be alright, even when I am uncertain about the future
