The Ills
Alain Macklovitch, Denzel Rae Don Curry, Noah D. Goldstein, Oladipo Omishore
Yeah, huh
My mind is a playing field for mental arguments
My thoughts are sayin' my emotions is who started it
My personality always conflicts with other people
The good in me has never been conscious of seein' evil
I could be ferocious in my times of feelin' feeble
Sick of life's ills, it could be short for illegal
Common sense, a victim to sensory deprivation
The mediator met with it all is in meditation
Lord invited me to stay idly on his left side
So I can right my wrongs in these songs to live and let die
Channellin' Notorious, Makaveli and Left Eye
Son of raw, speakin' on horrors to see who am I?
Topple leaders, runnin' with demons, countin' it even always
Silhouette-surfin' and stretchin' through mental hallways
Demons on my mind, they know where to hide, really
Then nine minutes later, I'm met with the nine milli'
So nine times out of ten, I'm probably going to Hell
'Cause I'm the devil, which means I sold my soul to myself
Shelf all of my worst fears in the mason jar glasses
Next to all the dreams and things I ever imagined
Book of magic, psilocybin, man, is a talisman
Speak my name in vain, it will be met with some challenges
I devise a way to rise, time to strategize
The purest form of Zeltron made me alkaline
I'm seein' illusions in the pockets of my brain
I use it, then find a way to illustrate my pain
Confusion, 'cause you don't understand a word I'm sayin'
Forgive me for all I done, 'cause I be barely prayin'
The kid inside me always seems to man up
The higher power is within myself, no need to pan up
Believe in U-L-T the way a child believes in Santa
Manipulate the masses and the media on camera
Black holes and white lights, white noise and black sun
Shadows and bright lights are crooks back in action
Surrounded by dismay, I display visions of a way
For Heaven on Earth and hell on Earth to fight for night and day
Apocalyptic hoes conflict against my optimistic hopes
The rope's around my neck are golden chains for me to choke
My locs reflect the locks and the flames that burn across
In my very nation, I walk with my peers, surrounded by chalk
Deities and darkness meetin' at my dinner table
Deeper than rap, my kife is real, this is my mystic fable
Play the bad guy just to finish the race first
'Cause the last guy was nice, but he end up dying of thirst
I'm seein' illusions in the pockets of my brain
I use it, then find a way to illustrate my pain
Confusion, 'cause you don't understand a word I'm sayin'
Forgive me for all I done, 'cause I be barely prayin'
I'm seein' illusions in the pockets of my brain
I use it, then find a way to illustrate my pain
Confusion, 'cause you don't understand a word I'm sayin'

Sick of life's ills, it could be short for illegal
Krank von den Übeln des Lebens, es könnte kurz für illegal sein
Common sense, a victim to sensory deprivation
Gesunder Menschenverstand, ein Opfer der sensorischen Deprivation
The mediator met with it all is in meditation

Per il paradiso in terra e l'inferno in terra per combattere per la notte e il giorno
Apocalyptic hoes conflict against my optimistic hopes
Le puttane apocalittiche si scontrano con le mie speranze ottimistiche
The rope's around my neck are golden chains for me to choke
Le corde attorno al mio collo sono catene d'oro per soffocarmi
My locs reflect the locks and the flames that burn across
I miei locs riflettono le serrature e le fiamme che bruciano attraverso
In my very nation, I walk with my peers, surrounded by chalk
Nella mia stessa nazione, cammino con i miei coetanei, circondato da gesso
Deities and darkness meetin' at my dinner table
Divinità e oscurità si incontrano al mio tavolo da pranzo
Deeper than rap, my kife is real, this is my mystic fable
Più profondo del rap, la mia vita è reale, questa è la mia favola mistica
Play the bad guy just to finish the race first
Gioco il cattivo solo per finire la gara per primo
'Cause the last guy was nice, but he end up dying of thirst
Perché l'ultimo ragazzo era gentile, ma è finito per morire di sete
I'm seein' illusions in the pockets of my brain
Vedo illusioni nelle tasche del mio cervello
I use it, then find a way to illustrate my pain
Lo uso, poi trovo un modo per illustrare il mio dolore
Confusion, 'cause you don't understand a word I'm sayin'
Confusione, perché non capisci una parola di quello che dico
Forgive me for all I done, 'cause I be barely prayin'
Perdonami per tutto quello che ho fatto, perché prego appena
I'm seein' illusions in the pockets of my brain
Vedo illusioni nelle tasche del mio cervello
I use it, then find a way to illustrate my pain
Lo uso, poi trovo un modo per illustrare il mio dolore
Confusion, 'cause you don't understand a word I'm sayin'
Confusione, perché non capisci una parola di quello che dico
Forgive me for all I done, 'cause I be barely prayin'
Perdonami per tutto quello che ho fatto, perché prego appena
