Mental Stress

"He should never even see daylight again, never"

"I have apologized publicly for the...for the Mental ang...

for the Mental Stress and emotional stress that I have a...

and I said to those people to umm...

I feel bad about it too.." (*echo*)

[Chorus]

How I need the eternal rest

Help me through my mental stress (My mental stress) - *repeat

4X*

See I've been to Hell and back, and that's a fact

I get a flashback one day I'm a snack

My mind is gone, to each his own

I wish the whole world would just leave me alone

I wanna die, I do not die

I'm on the far-side and it's passin' me by

I wanna cry, I do not cry

I have to tell me, myself and I

And who am I, I don't understand

Wipe that ass once the shit hit's the fan

Black man, my man, man

God damn man, all man, man

No shit, tell me somethin' I don't know, no hope

And I can't cope wit' the mental stress

[Chorus]

Life ain't nothin' but bullets man

And who's that nigga with the gun in-hand?

(What nigga?) This nigga, (What nigga?) That nigga

(What nigga?) This nigga, finger on the trigger

(Oh no, whatchya gonna do now boy?)

I'm finna go nuts like an Almond Joy

Bang my head against the wall three times until it bleed

Wicked Witch of the East, the belly of the beast

See, that's just how it be

Nobody really gives a fuck about me

And ya see, that I ain't got no hope

Somebody help me cope with this mental stress

[Chorus]

Lock me up and throw away the key

God took my mind and said fuck me

I kick the wicked shit until I can't nomore

I black out so much I can't think nomore

Til' I die, til' I die, when will I die?

How you be a homicide without an alibi

No lie, I can't wait til' I die

Niggas still think Heaven's up in the sky

And voices in my head call my name at night

Sometimes I don't know wrong from right

Insight, Twilight Zone's my home

I put the chrome to my dome when I'm all alone

By my lonely, I'm gonna join my dead homie

No hope, and I can't cope with the mental stress

[Chorus + talking]
