about

Crazy is the latest single from Oakland CA, Indie Hip-Hop artist, Genra. The track touches on mental health, escapism and hope for a brighter future. In signature style, Genra's boom bap cadence delivers a loose flow with competitive lyricism over smooth production by DreamLife.

"I live in Oakland CA, but I recorded this track during a snowstorm in Colorado. We spun out on the way to the studio. Hope you enjoy it."

- Genra

lyrics

Verse 1

Illmatic with the rapping until my body collapses / I’m prone to some mental lapses / misfires with my synapses / maybe I’m crazy / the whole world has gone crazy /

But never mind what happens / or what life is throwing at us / keep the hate outside the gate of my holiest apparatus / fugaze / fools trying to type play me /

Look at the style / flip it like Mr. Tao’s on the kitchen tile / From Oakland California / I’m active like Patagonia now / not in body but spirit cuz I embody the fearless / not able bodied but I will body yo rapper dearest / regardless of the factors my pen is sharp like a shark attack is / I line up actors for target practice / and blow them backwards / and leave them open like a frozen Arizona cactus / so why these critics bugging out like a ghetto mattress / I’m saying / i vacillate between that love and hate / I hate the fact that I’m loosing space in my database / all due to sickness that interferes with my mental state / but when I elevate / I’ma celebrate / So I don’t go...

Chorus

Crazy / the whole world has gone crazy

I think I might go crazy / I even told my old lady

I might go go

Verse 2

My Plague is boobonic serve haters like super sonic / I’m maverick like Luka Dončić / until we build up a dynasty / honestly / I’ll be rhyming / like back in the back seat / the wavy black chief / smelling like Axe and Dax Grease / if you ask me I’d rather be Cole than Dak P/ cuz i can flow like this or that like black sheep / but / really it’s my perspective / both equally effective / talents a lethal weapon but work is to be respected / it’s impressive when a man's invested in his own progression / That’s why I’ve been out the way though/ in the studio cooking something fuego / reminiscent of a rapper from Vallejo /

Uh

I’m never lazy but baby I got some crazy in me / I’ve been extreme since a teen / I got no maybe in me / no moderation I’m the culprit and panic compulsive /my focus needs more focus so I don’t go...

Crazy / the whole worlds gone crazy

I think I might go crazy / I even told my old lady

Go go go
