The 12th and final track of the album Bangkok Dangerous 3
The starts with an skit about “metaphorically” wearing a mask to hide a ones true indenity and their “darkest desires” to acquire a non-rejecting image of one to avoid rejection from others.
In the first verse of the songs Mickey is talking...
[Intro]
Let's take 'em home
[Skit]
Seductor newman, you're sayin' that everybody wears a mask?
That's correct, Wendy
We all wear a masks, metaphorically speakin'
We supress to hear our darkest desires
And adopt a more socially acceptable image
[Interlude]
Try, tell me, nigga
[Verse 1]
They found the whip was stolen license plates
Ambulance be on my tree like twice a day
Stupid muhafucka threw his life away (Dummy)
Now every other night you hear a rifle spray
I swear, I'm tryna live the most righteous way
But if a nigga run in this bitch, it's gon' be a price to pay (Brr)
Daddy said "Go to Christ and pray, before you slide with the glove like Micheal J" (Aha)
Beef can be bad for your heart when your light as day
High risk maneuvers, Mike said I should do gospel music, he don't like what I say
I told 'em "It's God Sound, but I'm not like Lecrae"
For that matter, no nigga, nah that was Foxy and Jay
I could make all that emo shit, but I ain't
I do R&B music if I could, but I can't
I might not have the best flow, but I'm good in the paint
I blow a hundred Backwood to the face
I ain't none of them stupid muhafuckas that stooded on crates
I see it different (Yeah)
Diamond, he a family man now like Peter Griffin
But you'll never see 'em slippin' (Never)
Tippin' the scale, see niggas on dummy missions and fail
They intentions was... well let's not say the best
It's time to take of the mask, but not the vest (Diamonds)
[Verse 2]
I confess
Like apartment buildings, my life complex
But it's all metaphoric, so don't get it out of context
Rappers out here dyin' like they tryna win a contest
It's times, I got to ask myself "Blue, you truely want this? 'Cause when you get successful, they gon' come with all the dumb shit" (There you go)
That's why I'm always rappin' on some Gunn shit
'Cause if a nigga tryna line me, I'ma make 'em do a double-front-flip
I want no trouble, but it comes with
It's my job and I'm havin' fun with it
See you niggas eyin' my style, come get it
(You better run with it) I don't need you anymore
Got you open like a flower when the sun hit it (Hit that blunt, Mal)
That ski mask shit was cool, but now I'm done with it
Let's take 'em home, I don't need you anymore
[Skit]
Seductor newman, you're sayin' that everybody wears a mask?
That's correct, Wendy
We all wear a masks, metaphorically speakin'
We supress to hear our darkest desires
And adopt a more socially acceptable image
[Outro]
Uh-ha, BD3
It's finally over
I don't need you anymore

It's— it's— it's— it's— it's the Umbrella, bitch
