[Verse 1: CRYM]

Ayo keep an eye open

Ain't tryna split a cell like mitosis

I'm high posting, waiting for the doctor's diagnosis

How sick am I, this one's for the little guy who's living large

At war with the warden when it's just a common pig in charge

Spitting bars, drifting cars handbrake, fishtail

The cat's out of this bag of bolts now obviously piecemeal

My vehicle is hydroplaning, how long have I been waiting

Active all along but so frigid you think I hibernated

Now I debated coming back on em like brrat

But after much deliberation I said motherfuck the gats

Fuck y'all cats wild pussy need animal control

Wish I could just scratch one off and watch my capital grow

Wish I could sit on my ass and let my assets amass

But this shit takes some effort and this shit is forever

And this shit is what defines us, fuck a page in webster's

And when the moon is this blue I'm not content just being clever

We are all part of the network hope that doesn't make your head hurt

If you need to cry then let it out but don't expect a wet-nurse

Any wounds left unattended will be guaranteed to fester

So I urge you get examined, get treated it's for the better

Cause we'd all rather know now than have to read it in a letter

And none of us has any clue the depth you're presently treading

You try to be everyone's genie that bottle swallow you whole

And they counting on you to keep you countenance under control

So you gotta fake it til you make it to impatience in a hospital

You're so naked facing brazen emaciation waiting to go

Back to that hamster wheel for the mass appeal but the routine ain't yours

It's about time to find that sanctuary put your boot through the door

They chewed you up expectorated, turned you loose as a whore

And there's nothing better you can do to even the score

Than keep on trucking, chucking out the incompatible manuals

But turn the other cheek cause we ain't infallible animals

You've earned the right to elevate your chin when you walk

Since you emerged you've been equipped with thick skin like a rock

Yo these bottomless bowls do a wonder for comfort

If you keep in mind that it's another influence that you under

Is the onus of the prey to pick out the the hunters among em?

Then stay alert for anytime the beast hungers for something

Topic of the discussion, mind over matter medicine over malady

Like I think my mitochondria are mad at me

Actually, your rabbit's simply lacking in batteries

Get em replenished and you're ready to tackle shit casually

And it might happen gradually don't trust in them magazines

Full of nothing but deception claiming money makes the apple green

Til you take a gander at the back of the packaging

And find out it's good for nothing but obesity and cavities

So henceforth your cynicism is your primary tool

In the conquest over nonsense comments and binary rules

When that kind of fire is in your iris then silence ain't in the plans

Spread your wings out in the sunlight you're the avian man
