I'm a shady ass fool I stick a machete in the back of Your engaged, trying to disengage the blade just to save Your life, caught a knife, back stabbed again Jealous, want your cabbaging, yelling out How I break out the mack ten, fully automatic then start spraying up shop like the crooked cops squeezing the trigger like Ice T It's magical, how the shiesty ones gradually metamorphosis Right before your eyes and then flash on 'em I get cold sweat, every morning Waking up from nightmares, about heaven being This padded room, that god send, I'm never leaving I wonder if I'm dead or breathing, I think he's punishing me 'cause I think people look better bleeding I praise, for Prozac and Codeine To keep my mind floating, hoping I don't hurt somebody for nothing I praise, I remember brighter days,before I was abducted by the grace And now my mind's a maze, understand I be strong in the Berkeley streets Searching for meat and trashcans with assorted leftovers A face for closure, the home of mind roams is known Amazes, thinking about the days I rhymed( I could of made it ) I can't accept panic swept, I'm an arsonist Leaving the Oakland hills, smoke filled, I'm deadlier than arson it Down at lake Merritt, setting ducks on fire, watch the fluttering flab I'm on the run, fuck the priors [Chorus: x2] Five hands is better than one Instead of just won, when you see me you better run They try to say that I'm crazy, but I'm normal y'all crazy They say I'm bonafied, infantile talented Not commended enough to be committed, but in balance I lost my parents as a kid Nobody's really certain if their deaths were an accident That gets me laughing, you're all just victims for the assassin Using drugs is suppressive, but I can't surpass 'em The killa cats are catching, I want to see the whole world in ashes Only then will I be happy They got my attitude switching, conditions my brain Moving fast and I'm twitching of this prescription drug, eviction Trying to maintain the same But everything 's against the grain So it don't make sense to complain I'm convinced that my brain is tensed from this strain of stress Wanderin 'your town, with intense of pain, and yes I like to do things until my mood swings I'm like fuck that, y'all niggaz is strange! [Chorus: x3]
