Information of the rapper
Sigismund Schlomo "Sigmund" Freud was born on May 6th, 1856, to a Jewish family in the Moravian town of Freiberg, in the Austrian Empire (now part of the Czech Republic). He was an Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis, a clinical method for treating psychopathology through dialogue between a patient and a psychoanalyst.
In creating psychoanalysis, Freud developed therapeutic techniques such as the use of free association and discovered transference, establishing its central role in the analytic process. Freud's redefinition of sexuality to include its infantile forms led him to formulate the Oedipus complex as the central tenet of psychoanalytical theory. His analysis of dreams as wish-fulfillments provided him with models for the clinical analysis of symptom formation and the underlying mechanisms of repression. On this basis Freud elaborated his theory of the unconscious and went on to develop a model of psychic structure comprising id, ego, and super-ego. Freud postulated the existence of libido, a sexualised energy with which mental processes and structures are invested and which generates erotic attachments, and a death drive, the source of compulsive repetition, hate, aggression, and neurotic guilt. In his later works, Freud developed a wide-ranging interpretation and critique of religion and culture.
Though in overall decline as a diagnostic and clinical practice, psychoanalysis remains influential within psychology, psychiatry, and psychotherapy, and across the humanities. It thus continues to generate extensive and highly contested debate with regard to its therapeutic efficacy, its scientific status, and whether it advances or is detrimental to feminist causes. Nonetheless, Freud's work has suffused contemporary Western thought and popular culture.
Lyrics
Verse 1:
Jokes I can make about your looks: abundant.
Your chastity vow: redundant.
But that's enough about Mary B.
Let's turn to my favorite subject: me!
I got mouth cancer, wasn't feeling so hot,
Had the Doc put me down with a morphine shot.
Thank imaginary God I wasn't in one of your beds,
You'd have just sprinkled magic water on my forehead!
I help people live, you watch people die
To get souls for a man in the sky!
You took credit that you didn't deserve,
You're the fakest sister act since Whoopi Goldberg!
You were running Project Pimp the Projects,
To you, Calcutta meant Cal-cutta check!
I can see right through you and you've got no flavor,
I'm battling a communion wafer!
Verse 2:
I notice that you talk a lot about yourself, which is funny
Since you hide your true feelings like they were other people's money.
(Ooh!) An exception to my theory! I can't believe this!
Here we have a Mother that no one wants to sleep with!
You had a nice message, but your methods were detestable!
I've seen better care given to organic vegetables!
All these tokens and smoke and miracles,
You really believe all this stuff? You're hysterical!
I've got the libido to continue to beat ya,
But our time is up, Teresa.
