You’re Crazy (2012) Lyrics

[Antix]

You ever get told that everywhere you're turning
You're turning the wrong way?
Well I have
This one's for you

Yo, I'm a ghost, a dream
Something in between
If I die today
It's like I never would have been
And I need to rise like like the mist and the steam
Up in the clouds, where I can be seen
Because I, I'm the spectacle for the eyes
Look into my soul, you can see the fuckin' fire
Look into my eyes, you can see the flames
Burns the ink from my soul to the page

And you can try to drown, try to hold me down, but I can't be held
Helium in my bounce, and I rise
How can I be stopped from rising?

Yo, and it takes a second to be thrown off your bases
Fuck me if I'm trapped in a stasis
I know the basics
I can relate this
My incentive to talk is makeshift
And I'm trying to make this, from scratch
But everywhere I turn, there's a wall staring back
Too white, too young, you don't come from the slums
You need a fucking edge to become number one
Well I got my edge, here is my knife
Lyrical fucking blade to your life

What more can I say?
Try to get signed, boy are you high, you're crazy
You want to do rap, that's enough of that, you're crazy (you're crazy)
You're from the UK, that's the wrong place, you're crazy
So go get a job, and give this all up, you're crazy (you're crazy)

Yo, and maybe this is true, but what am I to do?
I'm a fucking slave to the rhythm in my shoes
I just hear the drums, and write the rhyme that come
Just another instrument, playing right along
So play me for a fool
And say that I ain't cool
But I don't give a flying rick what you think what I do
I spit it at the top like I'm breaking a barometer
Take me to Andromeda
I am a phenomena
So love me, or hate me
Well, whatever makes you crazy

And you can try to drown, try to hold me down, but I can't be held
Helium in my bounce, and I rise
How can I be stopped from rising?

Yo, step by step I inch along to my fate
And people along the way tell me my shit is great
And people along the way tell me my shit is whack
It's kind of hard to elevate above that
But I try, because whenever I look to the sky
I see her face, and I'm trying to climb
Cause I'm trying to reach, and give my girl a kiss
Little mama you going to be proud of your kid
And by the time I'm done, I will have rose
See you in the stars, and that you will know, fashow
Try to get signed, boy are you high, you're crazy
You want to do rap, that's enough of that, you're crazy (you're crazy)
You're from the UK, that's the wrong place, you're crazy
So go get a job, and give this all up, you're crazy (you're crazy)

[Unnamed]
Alex, you're crazy

[Antix]
Yeah, everybody says

Try to get signed, boy are you high, you're crazy
You want to do rap, that's enough of that, you're crazy (you're crazy)
You're from the UK, that's the wrong place, you're crazy
So go get a job, and give this all up, you're crazy (you're crazy)
