Mental Clarity Is a Luxury I Can’t Afford Lyrics By $UICIDEBOY$

[Intro: Lil Buck, & Al Kapone]
Smoked out (You did good, $lick)
Smoked out, smoked out, smoked out
(It's a smash)
Loced out, loced out, loced out, loced out
I'm so hi-hi-high
Smoked out, smoked out, smoked out
Smoked out, loced out, loced out, smoked out, loced out
I'm so, I'm so hi-hi-high
Let me take another pull-pull, of that dope
Smoked out, smoked out, smoked out
Smoked out, loced out, loced out
Smoked out, loced out
I'm so hi-hi-high
Let me take another pull-pull, of that dope
Hey, hey, hey, hey

[Verse 1: $crim]
I'm a G-R-E-Y-B-O-Y, whole gang 59 and that's 'til we die (Gang, gang, gang)
W-E-T-T-O, cutthroat, snort an M-3-0
Mane, your gang don't want the smoke
Still pissed at my daddy, that he nutted in my momma (Fuck)
Crashing 911's, boy, I'm feelin' like Osama (Yeah)
Underground Obama, my .44 give a speech
If that's what they call high, then I'm fuckin' out of reach (North, north)
Arnold Palmer with the Wock' on the Eastern bloc (North, north)
In my purse I keep a mini Glock, hopin' that they try (North, north)
Skip off singin', "La-di-da", while their body rot (North, north)
In the hemi, how you like me now?
Reaper screamin' "Stop!"
'Hundred twenty months (What?), ten years independent (Yeah!)
Divide that by a hundred mil', the price for my appearance (Damn)
Dollar sign, no clearance (Yeah), the B now stands for business (For what?)
Fuck the industry 'cause G*59 is for the children (Yeah, what?)

[Verse 2: Blanco Leopardo]
Hit 95 down I-10
Heading downtown (Skrrt)
Shawty sitting shotty, got the pipe lit
Six lanes swervin', she concerned about my drivin'
Blow out the smoke
She know, the acid make my eyes spin, yuh (What the fuck?)
Took the Tchoup Exit off of Rainbow Road
Saw the smoke from the hood, but no, that ain't no ghost
So I pulled the fuck over
To watch the Range Rover glow
Laughin', as I watch it burn
But no, that ain't no joke
I got the keys now (I got the keys now)
I do, what I please now (I do, what I please now)
I can feel that breeze now (I can feel that breeze now)
But when that wind picks up again, I'll be ready
I hold my own weight, I'm heavy (Yeah)
I broke the levees, I'm responsible for the endless flood (Blanco)
Forest fires, earthquakes and an avalanche of fuckin' mud (Blanco)
Alias known as plague, I fuck shit up, then shrug and walk away (Blanco)
A trail of chaos, loss and pain
I'll bite the dust and spit out stains

[Outro: Lil Buck & Al Kapone]
Smoked out, loced out
Let me take another pull-pull, of that dope
Smoked out, smoked out, loced out, loced out
I'm so hi-hi-high
Let me take another pull-pull, of that dope
I'm so hi-hi-high
Smoked out, smoked out, smoked out
Smoked out
I'm so hi-hi-high
Let me take another pull-pull of that dope
Loced out, loced out, loced out, loced out,
I'm so hi-hi-high
Let me take another pull-pull of that dope
Loced out, loced out, loced out, loced out
I'm so hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-high

[Intro: Lil Buck, & Al Kapone] The intro sets the tone for the song with repetitive chants about being "smoked out" and "loced out," emphasizing a state of intoxication and detachment. This repetitive and hypnotic opening establishes the mood of disorientation and highlights the prevalence of drug use in the narrative.

[Verse 1: $crim] This verse delves into $crim’s identity as a "G-R-E-Y-B-O-Y" and the harsh realities of his lifestyle. He reflects on his rebellious and violent tendencies, indicating a sense of estrangement from societal norms. His references to personal grievances and violent imagery underscore the internal conflict and sense of alienation he experiences. The mention of financial success juxtaposed with personal discontent illustrates the theme of superficial achievements masking deeper issues.

[Verse 2: Blanco Leopardo] Blanco Leopardo’s verse portrays a sense of chaos and destruction, both physically and metaphorically. The imagery of burning cars and natural disasters conveys the consequences of his actions and his self-perceived role as a force of upheaval. His portrayal of himself as a harbinger of disaster and the aftermath of his actions reflect a deep-seated sense of responsibility for the chaos that ensues from his behavior, emphasizing the song's exploration of self-destructive tendencies.

[Outro: Lil Buck & Al Kapone] The outro reiterates the themes of the song with its focus on being "smoked out" and "hi-hi-high," reinforcing the escapist and disoriented state introduced in the intro. The repetitive nature of the outro mirrors the ongoing cycle of substance abuse and the resulting lack of mental clarity, closing the song with a sense of unresolved turmoil and perpetual indulgence.
