GrewSum - Open Up lyrics

Remember rappin' bars?
It's hard to imagine but
Rappers used to have
A certain passion for this classic art
But now the trash they talk
Is blatantly distracted y'all
From the fact they aren't even really
In my class at all
I'm on a level above them and
I can grab the stars
And slap hands with an astronaut
While he stands on Mars you lacking logic
I can't apploud you for that you're wrong
My bars are anacondas
They can grab you without having arms
I grew up on a grassy
Farm with a damaged barn
Practiced hard, this music became my avatar
I live through it, became a mutant
A savage raw
Mastadon, slash rappers on lortabs and gonj
Vagabond, a reason to leave the cameras on
Class was hard
I dropped out and couldn't land a job
I mean I coulda, but I didn't
I was having all the fun
I could before I passed along
To the land beyond

I can't help what lives inside my mind
But I give you my soul when I open up
I give you my soul when I open up
(Open up my mind)
Just come with me and let me
Take you to the other side
Where I give you my soul when I open up
I give you my soul when I open up
(Open up my mind)

My city can't respect me even
Though they know I'm great
Because I won't feed 'em a
Fanbase on a golden plate
Used to that sorta hate, I use it to motivate
Myself to be more than great
Taking charge and I own my fate
I focus straight on the road
Ahead cause there's no delay
We're no relation I open
Faces with broken blades
I'm known from making you know
The fragrance of bones decayed
That odor graces your nose
You faint and get towed away
I'm no ones protégé so I guess
Thet no ones to blame for being me a total
Crazed lunatic serving torture, pain
Get in the way of me blowing up
Get blown away
There's no mistaking, I own my city
I own my state
I run this rap game around here
There's no debate
Try to convince me that you do
And get that poker face
You opening acts spend dough on a
Rapper to open for them
Now to forever open's your fate

I can't help what lives inside my mind
But I give you my soul when I open up
I give you my soul when I open up
(Open up my mind)
Just come with me and let me
Take you to the other side
Where I give you my soul when I open up
I give you my soul when I open up
(Open up my mind)

I need a new place for me to be crazy at
Look on my face like I'm ok
But that don't change the fact
Your face can pass for a mask
When you've had your drain detached
I lost my mind a long time
Ago and never gained it back
They gave me that distinction all
Because my thinking was
That I could rhyme on beats
Accomplish feats that they were dreaming of
They looked at me just like a
Freak and even treated me
Like I did evil deeds just
For being me, I'm leaving, one
I'mma take this crazy that y'all created
Fulla hatred and just bang this music out
Cause you hate it, i'm elated
That you'll never feel this way because
Your brain is half a reason
And my rhymes are nothing less
Than an amazing demonstration
If I was to guess your age I
Would guess something less than 8
That seperate us, we're not the same
Let's just get that straight
You'll never make it
Your pedigree is the deadest weight
You'll never elevate to this level
Face it and just embrace it

I can't help what lives inside my mind
But I give you my soul when I open up
I give you my soul when I open up
(Open up my mind)
Just come with me and let me
Take you to the other side
Where I give you my soul when I open up
I give you my soul when I open up
(Open up my mind)
