about

'Own Your Mind' by The Inglorious Poet ft. Guilty Simpson & Josie May is a testament to self-empowerment. From Bristol & Detroit streets to Plymouth's soulful melodies, this chilled conscious track, produced by B-Lash, dives into personal struggles and reclaiming mental sovereignty. It's a powerful & potent reminder that true strength comes from within.

lyrics

Guilty Simpson in the house
Peace to my homie Inglorious Poet
My girl Josie May
You killed it
Gotta own your mind
Think for yourself
Won’t nobody go through the fire
But you, for you
Know what I’m saying
B-Lash on the Production
Let’s get ‘em

Listen
I wanted out
But ones I love they still plugged in
Trust in the just-in & numbed to corruption
Almost had me sucked in
Like a black hole, until my soul I grabbed hold
Now cast gold & just live
Free as each moment passes
Accept what’s coming
Stare my fate straight in the face
Just like open caskets
Stay grateful
So the dome I roam a Roman palace
But remain humble cos I struggled from the lower classes
Alphabet spaghetti, bread & smiley faces
Harboured my pain
Now all I try to make is smiling faces
Cos we all fighting facing
Our own demons & battles
Strangle the monsters and haggle peace with that shadow
It's love, we should be looking to
When you don’t like the world outside
Better look in you
Mind waves can vibrate
Shape atoms in this time space
If you want your life dilate
Then truth you better find faith


You gotta
Have an open mind
But own your mind
Oooo wooooooooo
In a world
That hides the truth from you
My integrity be guiding me
Won’t compromise my energy


The measures I take better the stakes
Setting my plate before the weather could break
I ate well
And the nosey people can’t tell
That’s how I like it Making it in quiet
Private
Introvert putting in work my clients
Thinking of home
So I’m rarely in the streets for too long
There's nothing out there
They’re killing artists in their hometowns
They throw the chair or it’s thrown out
And I’m aware how it’s going down
I’m not afraid
Just watching for the ways of funny style
They humor me often
I see it’s all smiles when we talking
But when I’m around it’s more of them
Showing their true colours
Green from envy
Or inexperience from a dream manifesting
And dealing with the pressure
Depending on the ears
Sound advice sounds like a lecture
Whatever

You gotta
Have an open mind
But own your mind
Oooo wooooooooo
In a world
That hides the truth from you
My integrity be guiding me
Won’t compromise my energy

Hey yea
(Oo woo, oo woo)
Hey yea
(Oo woo, oo woo)
