In 'Psicológico,' Akashi Cruz delves into the complexities of mental health, societal expectations, and the pressures of the music industry. The song opens with a critique of the over-reliance on medication to solve psychological issues, highlighting a sense of disillusionment with conventional treatments. The artist questions the effectiveness of these remedies, suggesting that they often fail to address the root causes of mental distress. This sets the stage for a deeper exploration of his personal struggles and the societal pressures he faces.

Akashi Cruz uses vivid metaphors and cultural references to illustrate his internal battles. He mentions feeling like an 'alien' and being 'inspired by Superman,' which could symbolize his sense of isolation and the pressure to appear invincible. The reference to 'Doutora Mônica' and the ineffective medication underscores his desperation for genuine help.
