DeMenTia

(Dementia) essentially the things that make us higher thinkin' beings Our memory, our way of calculatin', of plannin', language, they are degeneratin' Dementia is anything which is affectin' the brain, and the loss of function of the brain In such a way that the things that we normally take for granted for example Our ability to remember things, times, dates, events To place ourselves in a location, to use words, to use language All of these things begin to disappear Mama didn't plan me, that felt really weird, then she birthed a nigga, daddy disappeared Universe was wit' us, glad I'm livin' here, through the dirt we live, Lord had to interfere Doin' work he movin' bourbon to pursue a cooler dirt to sit in that is really clear You revert then leave 'em back to this career, didn't recognize her, had it been a year Mama sacrificed to have a livin' here, went through many troubles as a kid she feared Nightmares on the daily, that's my mental, yeah, speakin' on me dyin' as an infant tears Runnin' down her face while judges count the days, I'm shackled in the courtroom askin' 'em to hear My plea to tell 'em that I'm sane, but they don't feel the same because of how I act, the end is near Bangin', slangin' plus we strap the pistol here, do a bunch of drugs, had my memory cleared If these straps I'll black out mad and then appear, been a King but never had a Gwynevere I forgot it all, blast it with the fear, had a baby made the facts so crystal clear Master what I'm speakin' grab an engineer, give it to the world but as I give it here Know my brain is sick, ain't had a freakin' cure, medication had me actin' insecure Made a rap and fuckin' had to get some gear, lookin' in the mirror, that's my biggest fear Dancin' with the devil, ask, and he'll appear, spell out, "He'll appear", that shit really weird Scared to lose myself, God askin' if you'll steer Hell and Heaven point like that's each hemisphere, and as my memory clears I don't wanna lose part of me (dementia made me lose it) Will I cover that broken piece (man this is so confusin') Stay bold, embody me, hurt the feelings (got so inflicted in the music) (Ooh) but this is more than music Searchin' for a purpose, it can get really hard, if you make it that way and then forget who you are To find our self we take trips from afar, I went through dark matters just to live with the stars My stomach is a compass, I encompass what it means, I wanna see my destiny fulfill, the window's ajar I'm a caterpillar in it then I went for a walk, penned my situation and flew like Kendrick Lamar Damn, ask yourself, is this who you are? Situational relationship, your friends or your job? A diagnosis givin' your addiction a cause, go places evil waitin' see your kids have revolved Don't wanna fear who you are, your religion is fraud, and you live what you are So you sit in the dark with a bunch of sickenin' thoughts And when they give up it all, but would you lose everything, homie, then you evolve Am I a criminal? No, but the prison it caused though my memory's lost I remember the wall, while fulfillin' the dream, I forget that I fall But I'm still on a seam where the shit had to start Y'all did this to me, then I did it to y'all Right ear's what it's in, you know how it is but you wrong 'Cause I revisit the screams, blood spilled down the wall Now I'm numb to those things, I can't feel anymore Are you hearin' me Lord? I'm not here anymore, then what I wanna be, but I feel you ignore Brain in a white cube more than ceilin' and floor, boxed in but that's what the fifth dimension is for I know it's way more than a physical form, listen my realm can never coexist with the norm I swear I met the old me in the continuum path I said don't forget me, dementia ain't long, this how it feels to be lost I don't wanna lose part of me (dementia made me lose it) Will I cover that broken piece (man this is so confusin') Stay bold, embody me, hurt the feelings (got so inflicted in the music) (Ooh) but this is more than music Somebody with dementia any particular Alzheimer's disease These pathways will be severally interrupted And what's happenin' is where there'll be a normal healthy pathway To store or retrieve inflation elements of this pathway are lost And the cells are not workin' as well as they should So therefore when we try and store information, the ability to store it may be lost And therefore when we kept, also, when we come to retrieve that information We may not be able to store it properly, or we that just maybe able to access that information
