(Goes into some session)

<chorus>

Female Vocalists (singing):

Hypnytis is in your eyes, that look, that smile in disguise.

Canibus:

Ayo, can you feel it?

I know that everybody's heard of that (Vapors)

But this is the 98 version of that

Biz Mark, one of the founders of this art

Discovered evidence of this disease and documented it

Now the name of the virus is called "hypnytis"

A terminal condition that effects all biters and liars

Hypnoholics can't require my respect

Cause they snakes and I can smell the venom on their breath

Hypnytis

<chorus>

Alright now, I'm about to break the hypnytis down

It's characterized by a certain type of lifestyle

People that treated you foul just wanna be nice now

Smile and raise their eyebrows when you come around

I remember when I first started to work

And tried to get this job as a label intern

Them niggas was killing me, cause wasn't nobody feeling me

A&Rs wouldn't even risk demo-dealing me

Can you believe that shit?

That's how it was back then

<chorus>

Ayo, I know most the niggas I exchange pounds with or lounge with

Wouldn't be around if my career was spiraling downward

They'd crowd around me till I'm surrounded

Ask me who I'm down with

Till I replied, "the Navy Seals outfit"

They told me my album was coconuts so they rewound it

I knew they was hypnoholics by how their voices sounded

I pull a silver can out of my trousers

Paid a public announcement about the Hype juice and then I bounced kid

<chorus>

To me hypnytis is like the measles

Cause it's a disease too

Studies show it affects 1 in every 5 people

It's so lethal the cure can't be achieved through

Hypodermic needles or the ingestion of medicine in teaspoons

If you feel the need to

Here's a toll-free number, they'll send you an 8-page pamphlet for you to read

through

800-7-9-3-2

There'll be available hypnoholics standing by for you to speak to (echo)

<chorus>
