(voices in background) don't listen to him. 
 (b real talking) i gotta kill these, i gotta kill these voices, 
 They're takin over. tellin' me i'm this and that, 
 Making me feel like a fucking addict. yo, let's 
 Talk about what i need. i can't hang with this shit, fool. 
    Check it out, i'm a menace to my race 
 I dare any one of you to come up in my face 
 I live under the gun, die by the gun, 
 When i lay to rest, i'll lie by the gun 
 The outcome of every individual 
 Is infection through his poisonous rituals 
 Some seeem to break away from the chains 
 Of paranoia, stress and strain, i remain 
 Locked in the circle, never ending, mind bending 
 Unrelenting thoughts mending nightmares 
 From the past to the present, but i got no future, 
 And no one else in it. 
 So i take all the stimulants to keep me calm 
 My mind is a bomb about the blow 
 Let it all flow as i carry all of you 
 Through my sick thoughts, mental level distraught 
 Crisis seem to be poisoning 
 Everything i touch turns to shit, i wanna flee 
 But my responsibilties won't let me escape 
 One solution, take this pain away   
 D-i-m-e, dimin' down to a cell, 
 Drive down a bottomless well to hell 
 I feel i'm back in my cell 
 [?] never knew no hell 
 To deserve that i serve 
 But in a joint, you're serving me 
 A broke neck and drugs worse   
 Jacken: 
 What does it mean?   
 I need help, now i'm fallin' in a pit 
 And i can't get out without company to submit 
 My momma told me that i need jesus in my life 
 My wife left with the kids, i'm home alone tonite 
 Maybe she don't got one fuckin' clue 
 About the rituals individuals go through 
 I'm a runaway train comin' off track 
 Who's to blame for all of my shameless acts? 
 No one but myself, i step into the 
 Serious misuse of drugs introduced 
 To my system, all critical 
 I'm poisoned through the venoms of my rituals 
 Inhibitous, pacified, without distributors 
 Paths collide with mine 
 Maybe i'd be better off in the grave, 
 Maybe i'd be better off in the grave 
 Instead of a slave to these pills, 
 I wish i was saved. 
 But there's no hope for me 
 So i serve and be example 
 Of what exactly not to be. 
 You motherfuckers better take head, 
 Try and succeed, achieve your goals 
 Fullfil all your needs. 
 Indeed, proceed with your strife 
 We'll all fall victims to 
 The needful things in life.   
 (b real talking) that's right, we all fall a victim 
 To the needful things, whether it be bitches, 
 Money, materialistic bullshit!   
 (duke talking throughout) 
 What you need? huh? what you really need? huh? 
 What could you need? what could you need? 
 What could you need? huh? 
 The so called needful things in life. 
 I could do without. 
 Fuck all of ya'll.
