“Maniac” is a high-voltage journey through the mind of a thrill-seeker who walks the fine line between chaos and control. It’s not just about rebellion—it’s about embracing the scars, adrenaline, and raw survival instincts that come with living on society's edge. The song reflects the philosophy that life’s most intense moments—whether born of danger, desire, or darkness—are where true freedom and identity are forged.

Philosophy Statement

"Maniac" explores the mindset of those who feel most alive in risk, who see beauty in broken glass and purpose in chaos. It asks: What does it mean to truly live? Is it playing safe, or burning bright—even if it’s on the edge of destruction? The song answers with a raw, cinematic narrative—one where scars tell stories, sirens sound like anthems, and city nights baptize the bold.

Original Lyrics by Aime Pandi Bapaga

Tittle: Maniac

Feel my mania, no one can save yah…
Feel my mania, no one can save yah

Yeah, Scorpio’s the mark on my zodiac,
Lies taste smooth like aged cognac,
Born wild, born fierce, I’m a maniac,
Stalking enemies deep in my Pontiac.

Scars on my knuckles, a thirst for the struggle,
Cash stacked in duffels, my visions all juggle.

City lights flicker, my face in the broken glass,
Dreams sewn together from my future and my past.
Boots splash puddles, sirens cutting past my Pontiac,
Running on adrenaline, chasing thrills like a maniac.

Flying through orbit after a bloodbath,
Venom in my fangs, smoke blurs the path.
Puff-puff higher, call it the endo,
Diving in madness, strumming on a banjo.

(Feel my mania, no one can save yah…)
(Feel my mania, no one can save yah[Pre-Bridge Hook]
(Feel my mania, no one can save yah…)
(Feel my mania, no one can save yah…)

Machine guns tooting in the air, sicarios,
Narcos-cash ringing through my scenarios,
Street-taught hustler, ghetto-educated brawler,
Underestimate me? I’ll make you holler.

Whispers in alleys, shady deals under moonlight,
Counting thrills in the dark, ready for a gunfight.

City lights flicker, my face in the broken glass,
Dreams sewn together from my future and my past.
Boots splash puddles, sirens cutting past my Pontiac,
Running on adrenaline, chasing thrills like a maniac.

Hope rides shotgun with ghosts in my rearview,
Every mile’s a secret, every night something new.
[Pre-Bridge Hook]
(Feel my mania, no one can save yah…)
(Feel my mania, no one can save yah[Pre-Bridge Hook]
(Feel my mania, no one can save yah…)
(Feel my mania, no one can save yah.
