[Verse 1: Vinnie Paz]

The weight on my shoulders is like cargo

And I don't wanna know how deeply that my scars go

It's like the Fetus in the Womb by Leonardo

They got me feeling like Buscemi out in Fargo

As a kid I would just stare up at the stars though

And pray that eventually I'd have a God's flow

Remember riding in my father's Monte Carlo

Two months later he dead, now I'm in a fog, broke

Papi, Mami, I love you, but what do you do when there's trouble?

How do you process that life is a beautiful struggle?

I could end it fucking all without moving a muscle

And I'm too old to let the left hook loose in a scuffle

How do I deal with the designation to be ill?

As far as Marciano, separation isn't real

I don't believe in the philosophy that schism kill

Cause every time I kiss my son, it warm my inner chill


[Chorus: Rite Hook]

I'm trying to stay sane in this game, it ain't easy, hey

I done made my own lane and I swear you'll believe me, hey

I live in this world full of anger and pain

And nobody is safe in this place, not my God or me

Try to stay sane, it ain't easy, hey


[Verse 2: Rite Hook]

Nothing's equivalent to the deep brain I was given

And what I'm giving is something for you to sit and figure

The derivative of it even if you can love it

Most of them hate it but fuck 'em

You can suck my dick when it's uncovered

Son, everyone under the sun

Where it's coming from, it's someone close to living with nothing

I been dealing with it, no one said I can't be livid about it

Just paint my fucking canvas with the pictures I'm hearing about

Been sinking every day of my life

It's getting older, couple mill' man, damn it'd be nice

How many shows do I gotta fucking murder?

Put my heart in to make a splash

The industry is like a sea of infinity of blatant trash (Ha!)

All I can do is laugh at it

While I'm struggling with sobriety like a classic addict

Someone call the record labels and let 'em know

That I don't give a fuck if I make it or never blow


[Chorus: Rite Hook]

I'm trying to stay sane in this game, it ain't easy, hey

I done made my own lane and I swear you'll believe me, hey

I live in this world full of anger and pain

And nobody is safe in this place, not my God or me

Try to stay sane, it ain't easy, hey


[Verse 3: Slaine]

Feel the hellfire, the heaven on you

Think someday I'll reach my dreams but I'm never gonna

I got a screw loose, and a deuce-deuce

You got some more lies, I got some new truths

When the hellfire comes and it's burning ya

You either find out that you was or it weren't in ya

I'm still fucked, sleeping on my friend's furniture

But I stay determined 'cause I know what I can turn into

They told me that I couldn't do what I did

I saw the future, I just knew as a kid

I would visualize the life that I grew up to live

When you listen to me rhyme, I tell you who the fuck is

The legend rebel, the peasant devil

The high court MC, smash anyone against me with heavy metal

My balls are big enough to break walls at every level

My music call kids from all towns and every ghetto

I'm an anomaly, mommy, nobody's calming me or

Stopping my lyrics from spreading, I'm more like gonorrhea

Life isn't easy, is it

When all you see's a blizzard

I'm going back to demic

I think I need a visit


[Chorus: Rite Hook]

I'm trying to stay sane in this game, it ain't easy, hey

I done made my own lane and I swear you'll believe me, hey

I live in this world full of anger and pain

And nobody is safe in this place, not my God or me

Try to stay sane, it ain't easy, hey
