On Monday, Twitter exploded in the wake of Drake savagely making fun of Kid Cudi and his mental health issues on his new track, "Two Birds, One Stone."

To put it bluntly, people were pissed, and rightfully so.

Damn, fuck fuccboi @Drake for demeaning Kid Cudi's longtime mental health struggles. It's more than that, Aubrey pic.twitter.com/sx7rOMFZHY — justin lew block (@JBlock49) October 24, 2016

Yeah, it was pretty fucked up for Drake to go after a dude in rehab and only reinforce the stigma that exists around mental health illnesses.

If you thought Kid Cudi was going to take Drake's insult lying down, though, you have another thing coming. It may have taken a few days, but Kid Cudi just savagely responded to Drake's diss by calling Champagne Papi a "pussy."

As you can see in the tweet above, Cudi wrote,

@Drake Say it to face, pussy. You think it's a game. I wanna see you say it to my face. I'll be out soon. Promise.

BANGGGGG!!!!!!

In September, Kid Cudi reportedly checked himself into rehab because of mental health issues. The 32-year-old said,

I checked myself into rehab for depression and suicidal urges.

This response to Drake is Cudi's first tweet since entering rehab, and I have to say, this makes me extremely happy.

Forget about which side of the Drake-Kid Cudi beef you fall on and take a minute to acknowledge how awesome it is Cudi is clearly feeling somewhat invigorated by Drake's attack.

Obviously, most don't condone Drake's pretty messed-up verse on "Two Birds, One Stone," but if his diss is responsible for shaking Kid Cudi up a bit and bringing him back into the game, well, maybe we should be thanking Drake instead of lining up to rag on him.

Kid Cudi tweeted a message of hope and positivity after calling Drake a "pussy."

Big up, Kid Cudi. We hope to see you on stage soon, fam.
