Perception

[Intro: Mick Jenkins]

Wolves in disguise

How you supposed to see 'em with the wool in your eyes?

Sheep to the radio, we fooled and surprised

They ain’t never loved me, it's bullshit and lies

[Hook]

Puffin' on the flower, pull it through your nose

Not to say you bleed

But I’m Austin Powers, I remember gold

Tell me what you see, tell me what you know

Tell me what you know

(All of this shit is perception)

Tell me what you see

Tell me what you know, tell me what you know

(All of this shit is perception)

Tell me what you see, tell me what you see

Tell me what you know

(All of this shit is perception)

[Verse: Mick Jenkins]

Back down, we been up longer

Winter came, so you know I had to put the Mac down

Get my cuff on like a new suit

6'5", young Bruce Bruce

Pack strong, that's Bruce Banner off the vegitary

With the couscous, black clouds

Bring the rain down on the new cool

Like it ain't shit, monsoon when we brainstorm, that's the same shit

Muthafucka, this is art trap, you can see the verses like I'm paintin' shit

With some paintballs, shots sound like a Goose Goose

Willy Wonka, I got no cellings, if I do, I finna need a new roof, fuck a limitation

Regardless I was gonna be in here, fuck an invitation, what's a golden ticket?

Tell these niggas I don't need the juice, show these niggas how I got the stripes

Now they look at me like I'm Beetle Juice with a zebra cape

So many visions how you see the truth

Court vision can't you see the floor?

I'mma  lead the break in monotony

Treat the game like Monopoly, it's no snake shit

Just cottonmouth from the botany, I mean obviously we get it

It's obvious that this shit a circus

I'm obviously flee wit it, they'll take the world, they'll break the world

Then look at us like we did it, I'm...

[Hook]

Puffin' on the flower, pull it through your nose

Not to say you bleed

But I’m Austin Powers, I remember gold

Tell me what you see, tell me what you know

Tell me what you know

(All of these niggas perceptions)

Tell me what you see

Tell me what you know, tell me what you know

(All of these niggas perceptions)

Tell me what you see, tell me what you see

Tell me what you know

(All of this shit is perception)

[Bridge: TheMIND]

How do you see the world?

Views from the fifth dimension

They slip intentions in every lie

I've seen the promise, persons with wings that will never fly

They called us crabs in barrels

Carried us to our peril, we say we don't belong here

Why, why, why, why

[Hook]

I remember gold, tell me-

Tell me what you know

Tell me what you see, oh

Tell me what you see, tell me what you see, oh

Tell me what you know

[Outro]

All of these niggas perceptions

Damn, all of this shit is perception

Damn, all of this shit is perception
