Canibus - Mind Control lyrics
[Canibus - Mind Control lyrics]
You're under my, you're under mind control
You know you're lost, don't even try to fight
You can't escape, I rule you day and night
You're under my, you're under mind control
Been in this rap game since '96
Can-IBus, also known as Canibus
And even though that might seem
Like a short time
I was never known for spitting a short-rhyme
I'm known for my ill metaphors and lines
And I'm inspired by that little voice inside
That says
'keep a strong mind and don't compromise'
Nothing happens before it's time
Don't get off of the grind
See the game is cold, don't lose control
All the glitters ain't gold
You could lose your soul
I've been through it before
Guess you live and you learn
Everyone takes turns getting
What they deserve
It's like a revolving door as
Far as Canibus is concerned
Please believe it, I'mma get what I earned
As far as getting that dough
And everything else in my career goes
I'm completely in control, come on
Now don't get it twisted
Canibus ain't getting Jiggy with it
I'm just dumbing it down for a minute
Went from Jersey to A T-L
But then I relocated
Out to Cali on some one-way shit
Bought a cheap ticket and split
I'm in coach sitting next to this chick
With some real voluptuous lips
She asked me if I can help
Her give her luggage a lift after that
She wouldn't shut up for the rest of the trip
She said she thought I looked familiar
But she never caught on
I started nodding off
She was talking so long
Put my headphones on, then I went to sleep
Reclined the seat
Thought about rhymes and beats
I thought about how I spent so
Much time in the East
And how my mind was never in peace
In the streets
If you want to that yellow-brick road
Paved with gold, you just gotta take control
Come on
I stepped off the plane
Never want to sit in coach again
I can't deal with the neck pain
Seen some guy holding up a sign with my name
What's up my main man, where's baggage claim'
Took the elevator, I was physically drained
The chick from the plane said, 'bye
' and started to wave
Man, I'm just happy to be in LA
Got my release papers from Universal mCA
Now it's time to get that real paper
Shake off the haters
They can't break us, we're Gladiators
World famous
My name is on the mind of all of the majors
Canibus is outrageous
Fans sing along when I perform on stages
Or when they hear my songs
On they two-way pagers
They can't front, cause I broke the mold
And took a little time
But now I'm in control
You know you're lost, don't even try to fight
You can't escape, I rule you day and night
You're under my, you're under mind control
Been in this rap game since '96
