We are the people that had it rough Never was easy, but it was tough We got fed up and we had enough Now we rejoice Comfortable now with my state of mind Out of the dark, on my way to shine Get in my way and you'll get a fine You make a choice This is for everyone that doubted We rejoicin' 'cause we lived to tell about, hey! Happy we got that shit rerouted And now it's time to yell and scream about it, hey! Even though I'm a single mom and I do it all by myself All that drama bad for my health, I'm just maximizin' my wealth (Wealth) Even though I was all outside, now I'm ridin' real stealth I don't play the cards that I'm dealt, I'll just beat yo' ass with my belt (Belt) Even though I was a black sheep, back then it wasn't that sweet They say, "Don't leave", like Blackstreet, but I ran away like a track meet, I mean a athlete Can't compete, nor compare, it's a fact, see Because you puff like crack, weak, test my gangsta, it'll be a rap sheet Even though I wear my heart on my sleeve, only a fool thinks I'm naive Snatch my energy is guranteed to watch you beg and plead Water seeds, my crops pop, now I'm workin' with ease, so take heed Fall in a hole you thought you dug for me, please believe Even though I was hacked in the nightmare It took over me like Linda Blair Had to adapt and rebuke it with a silent prayer Meditate into the night air Yes, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up We made it through the fire, babe I said, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up And headed to the brighter day Yes, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up We made it through the fire, babe I said, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up And headed to the brighter day Even though the sports plot failed, thought I was really gonna box well Till that day I got knocked, fell, and saw not heaven and got hell! Even though I can barely see but don't got brail Even though I drank Caribou Lou for decades till I heard Doc yell, "Get on mocktails!" Even though I used to spark locs, wearin' red on my Start' coat Even though my love letters used to be heartfelt, I got heart broke Even though I do not swim where the sharks float like smart folk I did dumb shit in school and all the people laughed at me like a fart joke Even though I had a beeper, all that called me was tweakers Chyeah, chyeah Even though when at school, for blows, the girl topped me off under bleachers Chyeah Even though my mother boyfriend came in drunk at night and then beat her Even though I visited mom in psychiatric wards after havin' grand mal seizures Even though I got people switchin' on me Ain't never hearin' none of that bring me back, you pitchin' homie Even though I been gettin' lonely, dissin' phonies Givin off positive energy is my mission' only Yes, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up We made it through the fire, babe I said, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up And headed to the brighter day Yes, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up We made it through the fire, babe I said, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up And headed to the brighter day Even though this place seems so cursed, gotta make my way see no church Heaven ain't this grey, evil lurks, hesitate to stay, can it be worse? Man, the voices are deafenin', so the choices I make are forsaken and threatenin' Ever-ready like Techanin, 'cause the ex that I left is upset like Coretta King Yeah, aye, expose the turbulence slow Let that burn a hole in yo' soul, big pill, take a swill, conceal, then let it go (Go) Got kids to raise, so I spit till my last breath Baby mama wanna get paid, no K, audit me like the IRS? Even though everything, everywhere, all at once, no shit but the kitchen sink Gonna self diagnose through the pain and the nightmares, no time for an **** to blink It's all crazy talkin', stranger than things in Hawkins Instant madness Better not look away, the insane is callin' Stop livin' in persistent sadness Even even though we gotta smile through the bullshit Even though they act wild in the pulpit Even though they watch me through the whole store Even though I'm papi, she could still ho Even though I got fans, they can still burn Even though I got plans, they can still turn Even though they take aim to scar us I'ma still keep the flame, Dracarys! Yes, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up We made it through the fire, babe I said, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up And headed to the brighter day Yes, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up We made it through the fire, babe I said, I'm happy, happy to be mentally fucked up And headed to the brighter day
