As you may have already heard, Gucci Mane was recently admitted into a mental-health facility on a "special plea of mental incompetency" in order to delay his probation revocation trial.

He has since been released, and got an ice-cream-cone face tattoo in time for his trial this week. In light of this, we have compiled a list of lyrics that either address mental illness in no uncertain terms or are just flat-out bonkers.
