authorised – the institution lyrics

(chorus)
come step inside
just cross the line
don’t fear the light
it’s all in your mind, it’s all in your mind

(verse 1)
i’m standing out the front of hip hops door i’m sure what i’m here for
and the door handle is broken, but the door swings open
take a step inside and a gust of wind blows it closes
from the door to the back corner i hear a creepy creak in the floorboards
strange ornaments hang down from the roof
and i’m more and more certain this place is haunted, pause
re-ssess what’s around me my boundaries in the middle there’s a staircase
and it winds up made my mind up get the flashlight gonna take a look around see
a sign sitting while i walk up the stairs
it reads ‘welcome, hope you came prepared
this is the house of hip hop but don’t be scared
cos if you dream of selling records then we’ll take you there’
i said i’m right here to the open air
give me the mic i’ll recite like the pope and prayers
i heard this was the place that they come to train
to be the best of the best and i want the same
a voice, pierces through the dark
and it echoes, welcome to the start
it’s time, for you to make your mark
go ahead, show us what you got

(chorus)
come step inside
just cross the line
don’t fear the light
it’s all in your mind, it’s all in your mind

(verse 2)
i said you got to know that i got the flow
to pretty much get em on their feet when they’re at the show
you can’t fathom another flow this flammable
so when i spit you stop drop and roll
and man i got control, throw a rhythm and i’ll throw a rhyme back at you
cos you know that ima hit you with a vocab and vernacular, that’ll transport y’all back to back to the future, ima stop you right there
well i like your style and it suits ya, the voice said
but i’m concerned with ya, content
if you really wanna make it somewhere
then get to the end of the stairs
i took my last step at the end of the staircase, stared with a blank face
through a door into a dark corridor when he said please be warned
for you’re about to enter and be reborn, reformed
so take a step inside and take in what’s surrounding you
shining my flashlight from the left to the right i’m astounded to
see what i see, records like mmlp, the blueprint 3, quality by kweli
and other countless cl-ssics all stacked up in the air just hovering
above my eye line so i try to grab it, but when i touch it, it all burns to ashes
so i’m left standing there surrounded by flames
until that booming voice then returns again
i can see these cds still got a place in your heart
if you’re still connected now is the time to part
you’re new to the game, there’s something you gotta learn fast
the best of the present just can’t live in the past

(chorus)
come step inside
just cross the line
don’t fear the light
it’s all in your mind, it’s all in your mind

(verse 3)
one minute and i’m standing there, next minute i wake up in a white room to a nightmare, with a bright glare, feeling like i’m strapped to a chair
unaware if the figure ahead is just a figment
feeling like i’m in a fl!ck, science fiction, uh
inhibition when tryna shut my eyelids, my iris
wide open, as i see images ahead in motion
flashing pictures of the decadence faster and faster
from the money and the hoes and the cars to the
guns and the gold all sought after
don’t forget the dope and drink, feeling like each time i go to blink
i start feeling what i’m supposed to think, so i yell i won’t roll with this
but it’s too late, electric stimulation it comes with another painful sensation
a foreign fluid flows in my veins, bringing new phrases to my brain
shivering and shaking i say
make . . . m . . . make money fast
s . . . s . . . slap chicks too
s . . . swag on in the bar
show you some new dance moves
make . . . m . . . make money fast
slap chicks too
s . . s . . . swag on in the bar
show you some new dance moves

it’s all in your mind
