Sometimes I try to do things, and it just doesnt work out the way I want them to
and I get real frustrated, it's like, I try hard to do it and I take my time, but
it just doesnt work out the way I want it to ,its like I concentrate real hard
but it just doesnt work out and every
thing I do and every thing I try it never turns out, it's like I need some
time to figure these things out, but there's always someone there going:
- Hey Mike, you know, we been noticing you've been having alot of problems
lately, you know, and like maybe you should get away and you should talk about it,
you'd feel alot better.
And I go:
- No, it's ok, I'll figure it out myself, just
leave me alone I'll figure it out you know I will just work it out myself.
And they go:
- well you know if you wanna talk about it will be here, you'll feel alot
better if you talked about it so why dont you talk about it
And I go:
- No, I don't want to iam ok, I'll figure it out myself!
And they just keep bugging me and it builds up inside,
So you're gonna be institutionalized
You'll come out brainwashed with bloodshot eyes
You won't have any say
They'll brainwash you until you see their way
I'm not crazy - institution
You're the one who's crazy - institution
You're driving me crazy - institution
They stick me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me the needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy, myself
I was in my room, and I was like staring at the walls thinking about
everything but then again I was thinking about nothing, and then my mom came
in and I didn't now she was there and she calls my name and I didn't hear
her and then she started screaming:
- Mike, Mike!
And I go:
- What, what's the matter?
She goes:
- What's the matter with you?
I say:
- theres nonthing wrong mom
She goes:
- Don't tell me that, you're on drugs!
I go:
- No mom, I'm not on drugs, I'm ok, I'm just thinking, you know,
why don't you get me a Pepsi?
She goes:
- No, you're on drugs,
I go:
- Mom, I'm all ok, I'm just thinking
And she goes:
- No, you're on drugs normal people won't be acting that way
I go-
mom All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me,
just one Pepsi...
They give you a white shirt with long sleeves
Tied around you're back, you're treated like thieves
Drug you up because they're lazy
It's too much work to help a crazy
I'm not crazy - institution
You're the one who's crazy - institution
You're driving me crazy - institution
They stick me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me the needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy, myself
I was sitting in my room and my mom and my dad came in and they pulled up a
chair and they sat down, they go:
- Mike, we need to talk to you.
And I go:
- Okay, what's the matter?
They go:
- Well me and your mom, we been noticing lately you've been having alot of
problems, and you've been going off for no reason, and we're afraid that
you're going to hurt somebody, and we're afraid that you're gonna hurt
yourself, so we decided that it would be in your best interest if we put
you somewhere where you could get the help that you need...
And I said:
- Wait, what are we talking about?! We decided?! My best interest?! How do you know
what my best intrest is, how can you say what my best interest is? What are you trying to
say? I'm crazy? When I went to your schools, I went to your churches, I
went to your institutional learning facilities. So how can you say
I'm crazy?
They say they're gonna fix my brain
Alleviate my suffering and my pain
But by the time they fix my head
Mentally I'll be dead
I'm not crazy - institution
You're the one who's crazy - institution
You're driving me crazy - institution
They stick me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me the needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy, myself
It doesn't matter. I'll probably get hit by a car anyway.
