[Intro: Malcolm London]
Opia
The ambiguous intensity of looking someone in the eye
Which can feel both invasive and vulnerable

[Chorus: Jamila Woods (Malcolm London)]
You're a mess young boy, you're a mess young boy
(I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess)
Open your eyes, open your eyes
Open your eyes

[Verse 1: Malcolm London]
I just see it different
Oranges and apples
One nation under God
Foreclosing the chapel
Everybody's sinning while they pointing fingers
High horse getting straddled
Even I'll snake, If my baby need a rattle
One day he gon' detox like Dr Dre dropping Detox
They say one day he gon' detox
He ain't gon' detox, nah
They only see depression when they see the scars
Thinking you a big fish they don't see you dreaming in a pond
Here we go
[Bridge: Jamila Woods (Malcolm London)]
Open your eyes and see (Opia)
All you have is all you need
Open your eyes and see (Opia)
All you have is all you need

[Chorus: Jamila Woods (Malcolm London)]
(Praying for telekinesis)
You're a mess young boy, you're a mess young boy
(Telekinesis for all my neices)
Open your eyes, open your eyes)
Open your eyes

[Verse 2: Malcolm London]
I'm an Ethiopic claustrophobic, my city atrocious
Think our violence is bad, our politicians is bogus
My insurance don't cover all the drugs that I'm dosing
Don't need diagnosis to see prognosis is hopeless
Optometrist, optimist seeing optical opposites
Two sides of my city seeing opposite obstacles
They Blink 182, when I blink 187
All my dogs been to jail, we just waitin' to go to heaven
We ain't gotta touch for eye contact
Suicide, where my mind run laps
Be careful not to wash up on shore
You can still drown running from sharks
Hey Iron Man, they don't want Tony Stark
Say you wanna be Mr. 106 & Park
Bow Wow, crowds, now
Italian brows, scowl, clowns, Ciao
Go and open up your eyes
Take a walk in shoes not your size
Chance made the Grammys all online
I'mma take the westside all worldwide
We can change the world with a whole sixteen
N***as think it's sweet like they all sixteen
You Buy, Buy, Buy but you ain't N'Sync
I been a strategist since age fifteen
[Break]
Look me in my eyes
And tell me what's inside
Though my frame move too fast sometimes
For my heart to catch up, but that's alright

[Outro: Jamila Woods (Malcolm London)]
Open your eyes and see (Opia)
All you have is all you need
Open your eyes and see (Opia)
Open your eyes
