Torture - Danny Brown

Remember one time dawg, this fiend owed the boss

Put peanut butter on her pussy, let his pits lick it off

Back when I was living on Flanders

Seen another dope fiend beat another with a hammer

Remember at the park, seen a nigga at the payphone

Got rocked in his dome, momma picked me up and ran home

Was like fucking seven years old

When I first seen a fiend try to light a rock off the stove

Damn near burned his top lip off, so my mind ticked off

Desensitized to a lot of things, mind would drift off

Wish it was what I seen on TV

I snapped outta that, unc' beating on my auntie

Gunshots outside was sorta like fireworks

We know they ain’t fireworks, it’s December 21st

Cold winter with a kerosene heater

On the couch so cold, can’t take off your sneakers

And it’s torture

Look in my mind and see the horrors

All the shit that I’ve seen, nigga it’s torture

Look in my mind and see the horrors

All the shit that I’ve seen, nigga it’s torture

Look in my mind and see the horrors

All the shit that I’ve seen

I feel like a, prisoner of war

Reacting sporadically to what the mind absorb

Probably need a shrink, can’t get a wink

So I smoke a lot of kush and pop a Xanax to sleep

Close my eyes, look up, fiend said 1 for 8

Can tell that I scared him by the look on my face

Reached in my pocket, served him nervous as a surgeon

Can’t believe where I’m at, 'posed be writing verses

Heard a knock at the door, 'nother fiend wanted fo'

Gave him what he came for, told him go to the sto'

Let me get a box of Swishers, Faygo Cola

Gave his ass another stone, now guess what, it’s over

He ain’t come back, before I could look back

I heard the wood on the door crack

And they yelling «Police!»

With this work up in my jeans, man this a bad dream

And it’s torture

Look in my mind and see the horrors

All the shit that I’ve seen, nigga it’s torture

Look in my mind and see the horrors

All the shit that I’ve seen, nigga it’s torture

Look in my mind and see the horrors

All the shit that I’ve seen
