Tech N9ne 2 Happy (feat. Zkeircrow & Phlaque The Grimstress)
[Intro]
We are the people that had it rough
Never was easy but it was tough
We got fed up and we had enough
Now we rejoice
Comfortable my the state of mind
Out of the dark and my way to shine
Get in my way and you will pay the fine
Give me the choice
[Tech N9ne]
This is for everyone that doubted
We rejoice 'cause we live to tell about it, hey
Happy we got the shit re-routed
And now it's time to yell and scream about it, hey
[Verse 1: Phlaque The Grimstress]
Even though I'm a single mama I do it all by myself
All that drama bad for my health
I'm just maximizing my wealth
Even though I was all outside, now I'm ridin' real stealth
I don't play the cards that I'm dealt, I'll just beat yo ass with my belt
Even though I was a black sheep, back then it wasn't that sweet
They say "Don't Leave" like Blackstreet
But I ran away like a track meet, I mean a athlete
Can't compete nor compare, it's a fact see
Because you puffed like cracked wheat
That's my gangsta itta bitta rap sheet
Even though I wear my heart on my sleeve
Only a fool thinks I'm naive
Snatch my energy it's guaranteed, to watch you beg and plead
Water seeds, my crops pop, now I'm rakin' with ease, so take heed
Fall in a hole you thought you dug for me, please believe
[Pre-Chorus]
Even though I was hacked in a nightmare
It took over me like Linda Blair
Had to adapt and rebuke it with a silent prayer
Meditate into the night air
[Chorus]
Yes I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
We waited through the fire prayer
I said I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
And headed to the brighter day
Yes I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
We waited through the fire prayer
I said I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
And headed to the brighter day
[Verse 2: Tech N9ne]
Even though the sports plots failed
Thought I was really gonna box well
To that day I got knocked fell
And saw not heaven and got hell
Even though I can barely see but don't got braille
Even though I drink Caribou Lou for decades still I hear doc yell "get off my tails"
Even though I used to spark loc's
Wearin' red on my stark coat
Even though my love letters used to be heartfelt I got heartbroke
Even though I do not swim but the sharks float like smart folk
I did dumb shit in school and all the people laughed at me like a fart joke
Even though I had a beeper that call me was tweakers
Even though when it school for blows, the girl tops off under bleachers
Even though my mother boyfriend came drunk in night and then beat her
Even though I visited mom at psychiatric wards after having grandma seizures
Even though I got people switchin' on me
It ain't never hearin' none of the "bring me back" you bitchin' homie
Even though I be gettin' lonely dissin' phonies
Givin' off positive energy is my mission lonely
[Chorus]
Yes I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
We waited through the fire prayer
I said I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
And headed to the brighter day
Yes I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
We waited through the fire prayer
I said I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
And headed to the brighter day
[Verse 3]
[Chorus]
Yes I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
We waited through the fire prayer
I said I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
And headed to the brighter day
Yes I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
We waited through the fire prayer
I said I'm happy happy to be mentally f..cked up
And headed to the brighter day
