about
Hessian Renegade presents a comedic take on Cypress Hill classic 'Insane in the Brain' - Created remotely during 2020's Lockdown 1.0 as a social media stunt and released commercially for the first time in 2021's Lockdown 3.0.
The instrumental has been recreated entirely with beatbox and manipulated vocal sounds. The lyrics revolve around the never ending tedium of UK Lockdown life, tongues pressed firmly in cheeks in true Hessian style.
lyrics
Who you trying tae get wide wae pal?
You no know am mental?
[Verse : 1]
To the guys on the saaaame walk today
Who lost their way in the shops to pay
Nae scran, get it done when they come and scan
Man, It’s only 6 packs of ham
Let’s no regret this, I don’t wanna wreck shit
Go get security, god this is hectic
"Aaaant", self serves blinking, I'm thinking
I really shoulda just stayed at home drinking
Dude, who really needs food
Always on the Bucky when I’m up tae nae good
Mate, I gotta stay hame
But I’m locked in ma hoose and am going insane
Insane in ma ain-hame
Insane in ma hame
Insane in ma ain-hame
Insane in ma hame
Insane in ma ain-hame
Going insane, I’ve fried ma brain!
Insane in ma ain-hame
Insane in ma hame
Verse 2
Doing shit when I’m rubbered, now it's time for a cover
Slavver, on the mic I’m a rapper
Sad boy and I’m quiet, pure silent
Cure for the boredom? Mate I will try it
This shit sucks, like yer maw, up the back a the bus
But it could be worse
'Cause brother, I don't do a cover, lightly
Dudes climb the walls 'cause they can't drink nightly
Or hit that pub, show em, love
Lonely faced punters scratch doors at clubs
This shit is inane man I'll explain
We’re all stuck at hame and we’re going insane
Insane in ma ain-hame
Insane in ma hame
Insane in ma ain-hame
Insane in ma hame
Insane in ma ain-hame
Going insane, I’ve fried ma brain!
Insane in ma ain-hame
Insane in ma hame
[Verse 3]
Like Boris Johnstone, dogs his work
I'll disappear for a bottle of buck cus
Soon, I got to do my squats
Shots? Aye I’d rather do some shots
This ‘Grams gonna make my face frown
Six packs all round, tanned all brown
I get sad when I look this bad
Beer belly and a beard is the ISO fad
Yes In this climate, I’ll admit
I, feel shit I don’t get the ultraviolet rays
Staring at this wall for days
Waiting on a text fae ma furlough pay
Look, I’m glad it’s not a cruise or a plane
But I’m stuck in ma hoose and I’m going insane
Insane in ma ain-hame
Insane in ma hame
Insane in ma ain-hame
Insane in ma hame
Insane in ma ain-hame
Going insane, I’ve fried ma brain!
Insane in ma ain-hame
Insane in ma hame
