Psychosis (Dave Tribute)

Gift
Psychosis
I didn't know myself
didn't know myself
I didn't know myself no more

Woke up one morning
Never went back to sleep
Started losing my mind
I was smoking bare weed
Didn't know what to think
I was sinking real deep
My body was tired
And my head felt weak
On the 5th day
I fell to my knees
Manager sent me home
Hallucinating it was peak

You're my top shooter, Gabs
What's gotten into you this week
Running away from the answer
Cause I didn't want no passa
I couldn't understand
Let alone even stand
Guess boxing helped me out
Or, I would of gone AWOL

I'm an artist but I failed
Seeing through red eyes
Luckily that ship has sailed
Couldn't sacrifice
Indulging in anger
With a blurred meaning
And, trust me I'm healing
But at the moment, it's believing
The pain is deceiving
And maybe it's appealing
Putting answers to my reasons
Trust me God, I can see it

Or, maybe I'm just dreaming
Am I Spiritually gifted
Named after two Angels
Was I meant to be
Am I the Neo of the 21st Century
I haven't failed shit
Go listen to my poetry
Before you chat to me

Back in Uni
That wine was my potion
If you know, then you know then
That's when a gateway opened
To Freedom and Opinion
Rebellious decisions
Almost had me dead

God protected one of Theirs
Cause I know that He cares
But Gift was choosing dare
Cause Gift had no fear
Gift's vision wasn't clear
She's assertive
She doesn't care
She will feel but She won't hear

Psychosis is a bitch
I think Karma sent her
To rewire my brain
Tune up the pain
Mentally insane
Section 3
I was detained
For 28 days
Think about it everyday
Celebrated my birthday
In a mental health centre

Lockdown on my 21st
I'm a Joker
I'm a Stoner
I'm a Loner
Can't chat bad to me
I will smoke ya

All this energy for them
But none of it for Me
I was chilling on my Js
Zopiclone just to sleep
Promethazine replaced my weed
It was beautiful, You see
The side effects was mad
What you know about K-Trap
Went from Social to Anti
Luckily I kept on rapping
Would of got dragged back G

At 16, I was blazing trees
Got custom made
Don't forget about me
Every year since then
Spiritual awakening
Such a shame this one
Would be the beginning
Of a sad ending
Fighting for your rights
Shouldn't feel like a sin
Should feel uplifting

Save our kids ain't a protest
It's an Anthem
Trust me 99
We are definitely landing

No Justice
No Peace
No dickhead police
Could ever take me
Could ever break me
I'm Gift Of The Gab
I'm a fucking G
Speak now or forever
Hold your peace
I maintain my peace
You best believe
Psychosis, never broke me

I just felt like
I didn't know myself no more
I didn't know myself
I didn't know myself
I didn't know myself no more

Big up fernerley ward
I owe it all to you
You were a bunch of pricks
But you deffo told the truth
I was a lunatic
Spitting in the booth
Brought me back to reality
I owe it all to you

Now my dreams come true
Thank you Gabrielle
Owe it all to you
Pull yourself out the gutter
Even though you was confused
You are on your grind
I respect you boo
Stay strong
Get rest
Lots in store for you

I didn't know myself no more
I didn't know myself
I didn't know myself
I didn't know myself no more
