Hello!
We are here with Youngblood and we are about to talk about the lyrics for Psychotic Kids.
Fire away!
[B] So it's about?
[Gm] [Bb] Psychotic Kids, they don't [Dm] know what they want
[Gm] So [Bb] Psychotic Kids is like, [D] I remember when I was writing it, I wanted to [E] do an accumulation of different [Dm] genres that would just be mad
and kind of wouldn't be allowed to fit together, do you know what I mean?
[A] So I wanted to mix reggae, dub, drum and bass, pop, rock and just mix it all in one [Dm] mad bowl.
It [Bb] just talks about young people right now [C] because we [D] are so smart.
We have an idea of a [A] future that we want to be a part of [G] but it's almost been held [D] back by a generation that aren't quite ready [Gm] for the world to go to that place [Bb] yet
Yeah, they don't understand us
Or just don't [Dm] understand us Right
And it's just [A] kind of like, you're looking at me like [Gm] a psychopath if I want to marry a [Bb] bloke
or if I want to [Dm] abort the kid in my belly because it's going to ruin my [A] future
and things like that
[Bb] and for the first [Dm] lyric, we're still living in a backward mentality, [Gm] there's still [Bb] white supremacy going [Dm] on in places
that's the first line, it's like I see [E] pictures in my head, a world where the suffering is dead, where they can't fight or unjustly arrest [E] anybody for the colour of their [F] body
because I'm looking at this liberal world, [Dm] it's like the [Bb] people who are living in the past are looking at me [Gm] like I'm a nutcase
and [A] it's like, why do you want to go turn back time, just come and take a ride in my psychotic mind
it means that's the way, it's like [Dm] step into my head that you think's nuts [A] that actually isn't nuts, it's perfectly logical
and it's the 21st century for fuck's sake
Maybe if you just listen
Yeah, it's the 21st century for fuck's sake
[E] but that's kind of [Gm] what the song's about
[Bb] and it kind of [D] moves in and out of that and been kind of [Gm] like touching on [Bb] me being misunderstood because I was always [Dm] opinionated
and if I express those opinions, [Gm] it's almost like sit down and [Bb] shut up
and all the [Dm] generation not being able to relate to that even though they [Gm] probably felt exactly the [Bb] same when they were younger
[Dm] but they lost that as well, like my mum thinks I'm on heroin and my dad just thinks I'm gone
but they don't know fucking anything, say youth is wasted on the young
[A] I moved out of London at 16 to kind of fulfil this [D] life I want
my mum thinks I'm [Dm] doing drugs and eating raw chicken every night
and my dad's just like lost hope because I ain't running this week
I don't know, those lines meant a lot [Bb] to me and it's a song that kind of [D] says a lot
and it's a lot of information [Gm] musically and lyric [Bb] wise
but that [Dm] kind of excites me because I just want it to be [Gm] some mad thing [Bb] with a really catchy [Dm] chorus
So when somebody listens to [Gm] Psychotic Kids, what's your goal?
[Bb] What do you want them to take away from it?
[Dm] I just want them to [Gm] feel like you can say what you think
[Dm] and you're not a nutcase for thinking how you do, you're just [C] expressing yourself
you're not a [Dm] psycho, do you know what I'm saying?
and if you [A] are, then it's good to be a psycho
It's good to be different
How boring would it be if we were all the same?
That's [Bb] exactly it man, it's just like [C] you are who you are, [Dm] you can't change that
and if people don't like who you are [Bb] then they're not meant to be in your life
So be a [Dm] psychotic kid
There you go, you heard it first [G] from Youngblood himself
There you go, bye [Gm] guys, thank you
