They say psy psy psy psychosis
Why they wanna hit me with a diagnosis
Why they wanna make sure my mind closes
Conspiracy my ass, they want us to die fast
Expose this psychosis, if you wouldn′t mind blow this
Get deep, get mind blowing, got mine going psycho shit

They say psy psy psy psychosis
Why they wanna hit me with a diagnosis
Why they wanna make sure my mind closes
Conspiracy my ass, they want us to die fast
Expose this psychosis, if you wouldn't mind blow this

Get deep, get mind blowing, got mine going psycho shit

I hope THIS -- wakes YOU the fuck UP
The two get untucked, we move, we bust rush
Pursue the justice, uproot, the truth
Gather troops, they wanna lock me, outta the booth
Stop me, but watch me, get loose
Defying a mental giant, in an environment, of violent
Men, the kind that′ll live and die for the rifle
Of a crime, we're in confinement
And that's why, I kinda feel like,
Rhyming is an assignment
Climb in a nigga′s mind and, I′m gonna sign it
Permanent, gonna learn it, and get excited
Recite it and be reminded, that every time to look alive!
You've been invited to take a ride
Jus givw me FIVE minutes THROWIN′
MY venom, in the fire
Just to heighten it, enlighten it,
And get inspired
Might be surprised,

Some truth, in a lie
You can decide on why...

They say psy psy psy psychosis
Why they wanna hit me with a diagnosis
Why they wanna make sure my mind closes

Conspiracy my ass, they want us to die fast
Expose this psychosis, if you wouldn't mind blow this
Get deep, get mind blowing, got mine going psycho shit

Why they wanna hit me with a diagnosis
Why they wanna make sure my mind closes

Conspiracy my ass, they want us to die fast
Expose this psychosis, if you wouldn′t mind blow this
Get deep, get mind blowing, got mine going psycho shit
Psychosis...

Mankind caught up, in a cycle of apathy
Absent of passion, and peer unhappily
Consuming the greater part of, our-energy, exactly
What is the purpose, of the secret service? It had to be
A plan of the wicked, to paralyze the intellect
For generations next, survived the internet
Microwave knowledge, to benefit, been a threat
Third eye blindness, mistook you, illiterate
Ignorant, impossible, to expect you, to give-a-shit
Hear me and call it, conspiracy theory
Or fear we (?), or follow, you're mentally, weary
Tyranny, over the mind′s memory
What a, well-designed enemy
Clinically brain-scattered,
Chemically-imbalanced
Ex-press malice,
Such untapped talents
Told what we know with an,
Unmatched challenge
Look at those that control,
This is all out madness!
Keepin' us from the knowledge
Let us suffer in silence
Terminating a third,
As veterans of the violence,
Reaching for what's inside us
No one is gonna guide us
Don′t see the obvious?
Then don′t bother lookin' behind us
Keepin′ our minds on,
How fine Nikki Minaj is
Or Louis Vuitton,
See the signs, how they designed us
While they design, a new bomb, to drop-on-us
New micro chips, satellites, and narcotics
It's crazy... we puppets...
TRIGGERIN, OUR FAV-ORITE, TOPICS
Big Brother, baby sitter, create subjects
Got us all on the hook, at any moment,
They′re gonna gut us

As long as we look at stars,
As something up above us
We lack perspective, see that deception?
They flexing, and really don't expect us,
To make that connection.

They say psy psy psy psychosis
Why they wanna hit me with a diagnosis
Why they wanna make sure my mind closes
Conspiracy my ass, they want us to die fast
Expose this psychosis, if you wouldn′t mind blow this
Get deep, get mind blowing, got mine going psycho shit
PSYCHOSIS
They say psy psy psy psychosis

Why they wanna hit me with a diagnosis

Conspiracy my ass, they want us to die fast
Expose this psychosis, if you wouldn't mind blow this
Get deep, get mind blowing, got mine going psycho shit
PSYCHOSIS

If this ain't fresh, I don′t know what is
If this ain′t blessed, I'm cold and faithless
If this ain′t dope, then i must be cracked-out
If this ain't hope, then we must be asked-out
If i ain′t right, then i must have got-left
If you ain't heard nigga, you must be-deaf
Kill all drama, cause we don′t need-stress
Stop more fights, than a UFC-ref
I just wanna party, and kick it, with the army
Looking like a star,
Key player in a game, insane,
No one wanna harm me.
It's gonna be the day, I wake up,
In a new Bugatti
For sentimental gain, my aim,
In a Ferrari
Thank God, we got a chance,
To do it properly - advance
Ain't no hand, I′m dealt
Stopping me,
Real shit, got this sick, and
Felt awkwardly...
NO HOBBY!
Survival, of the illest,
Rise, over the limits
Realize, what is within-us

Deny, what they will give-us
Take what they don′t want-us
To have
They want to kill-us,
And fast!
They putting salt,
In the path, and salt in-us!

Wising up, though,
Handling business,
Stop this, senseless crime
On my senses,
I can obtain,
Whatever my interest,
This is a new, theme-song,
For my entrance:
"Go hard, go hard, or,
Go home! Don't bother!"
If you not in fear, of the flame,
Then get hotter!
Go be inferior, lay,
Down in low water

You want holy ground,
But no honor,
Pull your halo down,
To yo′ collar.
Get paid for slave,
To no dollar,
Will maintain, that I'm sane,
But they holler...

They say psy psy psy psychosis
Why they wanna hit me with a diagnosis?
Why they wanna make sure my mind closes?
Conspiracy my ass!
They want us to die fast,
Expose this, psychosis...
If you wouldn′t, mind blow this!
Get deep, get mind blowin, got mine goin...
Psycho shit...

Psy psy psy psychosis
Why they wanna hit me with a diagnosis?
Why they wanna make sure my mind closes?
Conspiracy my ass,
They want us to die fast,
Expose this, psychosis,
If you wouldn't mind, BLOW THIS!
Get deep, get mind blowin, got mine goin,
Psycho shit, PSSSSYYYYCHOOOOSSIISSS!!!!
