What's Wrong With This PIcture - Opio

So easy to regurgitate the trash that they feedin ya

Pervertin and distortin the truth through the mass media (uh-huh)

Greedy addicts, who see me as savage

Reverse psychology, I don’t swallow easily

Just stay flippin through my hustler’s handbook (right)

They told me follow the rules as you thrust into manhood (so)

That’s why today a nigga multi-dimensional

Organic, I don’t panic, I stay flexible

Let’s get real deep, past the naked eye

Cause that’s the first place to try to place a lie

Obviously a waste of time

You don’t do what you say, that breaks divine

What you say is fine, but my state of mind

Ain’t the kind to take a line at face value

How you presented your sentences, candy-coated

I’m then I’ll try to get to the motive

The root of it all (the fruit of truth)

Provides the proof (the vibe alive) for who (what) when (and why)

And where is that, you better look inward

Never find it outside yourself, potential

Man I’m seein somethin a little weird man

Yeah nigga they tryin to pull a fast one on you man

Is anything gone but this picture here

Anything out of place that isn’t clear

Anything that don’t belong in this picture here

Can ya, see beyond what you given here?

Fahrenheits to centigrade, ever since the 11th grade

I penetrate the mind’s eye like a straw through a glass of lemonade

It’s ele-men-tary

If marijuana’s so bad, what’s this Zoloft they sellin me?

You gotta be jokin, forgot I’m from Oakland

If you hop out the roaster get shot up with holes, hmm

Cause it’s poverty out here, so the mob’ll be out here

For the American dream, how many lost in a year

A hundred and fourteen and more fiend

Proportion, black mortality casualty

Gradually losin grips with reality

When a child’s view in violence so casually

Callously, carousel of confusion

Only comes to a halt with thoughtful conclusions

I’mma weigh the pros and cons of what’s goin on

Decide whether to go beyond and go along

Don’t follow the follower (yeah they be lollygaggin)

Man they tell you they seen it all (and they probably haven’t)

And where is that, you better look inward

Never find it outside yourself, potential

Yeah man next they gonna have you up in the spellbound lost’n’found

Yeah man, there’s magical shit man, it’s reality
