[Hook]: Listen to me baby The world's going crazy I'll give you some idea of truth Ain't like other people [Verse One] [Bishop]: Sometimes I catch glimpses of another planet Most times I don't even understand it Is God speakin' to me or is this ? I don't believe what I'm seein' like a flying saucer Is it dumb to hope for peace and dream of better days? Oh that's that underground shit, it ain't gon' get no play Like a famous rapper coming out and say he gay That's a hard choice, I'll make mine anyway I think we all need liberation Cause most people live a quiet life of desperation The ugliest things is what you don't see Hardest thing to face is who we are, not who we can't be I'm only who I'm meant to be And that fact, we all see eventually Keep on living life, scared to be their self So they content with wearin' a mask, bein' someone else [Hook]: Listen to me baby The world's going crazy I'll give you some idea of truth Ain't like other people [Verse Two] [Trek Life]: This is the person in the mirror talking I never lied to you or fake caution I've been here whether broke, fame or fortune Where everybody else around tend to change often See me and you, we one in the same So I'm the last one to whom you can run your game Wait Look at me Don't walk away I think it's time me and you we had a talk today See I noticed you gon' explain shit Ignorin' your own, chasing other folks' happiness That's why I'm tappin' on the glass to kick game to you Cause I think you need to step back a bit Maybe we need to be reconnected Cause every decision you've made – I've been affected I think you need to see more of me I really wish that you would quit ignoring me [Hook]: Listen to me baby The world's going crazy I'll give you some idea of truth Ain't like other people [Verse Three] [Mykestro]: Signing over your soul for a placement Couple niggas I used to roll with, face it Same niggas I broke the mold with, complacent Plenty niggas is in the know and ain't made shit You in demand your money Lambo long Fame forced your hand, got you getting your Sambo wrong I'mma revamp rap when all the yaps prolong the coon foonery Tryin' to get my Ab-Soul on The undisputed me Thrives on the need to be heard I mean musically intrigued by the seasonal surge The ink and eulogy The deacon of ? and verbs And it's the cool of me, critiquing your demeaningless verse Ain't nothin' new to me The table's opportunity turn No continuity, do what you gotta do to be heard I drop gratuity, assuming he can easily encourage a flock of newer me's Propers I eagerly urged You opera room to me [Hook]: Listen to me baby The world's going crazy I'll give you some idea of truth Ain't like other people
