four-cornered room staring at candles [00:03.91] [00:05.38]Oh that sh*t is on [00:06.08] [00:07.50]Let me drop some sh*t like this here [00:08.90] [00:09.47]Real smooth [00:10.23] [00:10.79]At night I can't sleep I toss and turn [00:13.13]Candle sticks in the dark [00:14.29]Visions of bodies being burned [00:15.34] [00:16.21]Four walls just staring at a ni**a [00:18.26]I'm paranoid sleeping with my finger on the trigga [00:20.66] [00:21.60]My momma's always stressing I ain't living right [00:23.42] [00:24.09]But I ain't going out without a fight [00:25.88] [00:26.68]See everytime my eyes close [00:28.22]I start sweating and blood starts coming out my nose [00:31.12] [00:31.84]It's somebody watching the AK [00:34.04]But I don't know who it is [00:35.51]So I'm watching my back [00:36.73]I can see him when I'm deep in the covers [00:38.64] [00:39.20]When I awake I don't see the motherf**ker [00:41.71]He owns a black hat like I own [00:43.07] [00:44.28]A black suit and a cane like my own [00:46.29] [00:46.86]Some might say "Take a chill B" [00:48.57]But f**k that sh*t there's a ni**a trying to kill me [00:51.48] [00:52.15]I'm popping in a clip when the wind blows [00:54.39]Every twenty seconds got me peeping out my window [00:56.72] [00:57.33]Investigating the joint for traps [00:58.93] [01:00.07]Checking my telephone for taps [01:01.55] [01:02.40]I'm staring at the woman on the corner [01:03.99] [01:04.66]It's f**ked up when your mind is playing tricks on you [01:06.91] [01:21.72]I make big money I drive big cars [01:24.11]Everybody know me it's like I'm a movie star [01:26.83]But late at night something ain't right [01:29.27]I feel I'm being tailed by the same sucker's head lights [01:32.01]Is it that fool that I ran off the block [01:34.39]Or is it that ni**a last week that I shot [01:36.94]Or is it the one I beat for five thousand dollars [01:39.45]Thought he had 'caine but it was Gold Medal Flour [01:41.97]Reached under my seat [01:43.11]Grabbed my popper for the suckers [01:44.44]Ain't no use to be lying [01:45.78]I was scareder than a motherf**ker [01:47.09] [01:48.29]Hooked a left into Popeyes and beared down quick [01:50.86]If it's going down let's get this sh*t over with [01:52.77] [01:53.29]Here they come just like I figured [01:55.09] [01:55.73]I got my hand on the motherf**king trigger [01:57.84] [01:58.42]What I saw'll make your a** start giggling [02:00.61]Three blind crippled and crazy senior citizens [02:02.84] [02:03.77]I live by the sword I take my boys everywhere I go [02:07.14]Because I'm paranoid [02:08.03] [02:08.66]I keep looking over my shoulder [02:10.24]And peeping around corners [02:11.48] [02:12.01]My mind is playing tricks on me [02:13.64] [02:28.48]Day by day it's more impossible to cope [02:30.07] [02:31.90]I feel like I'm the one that's doing d**e [02:33.54] [02:34.34]Can't keep a steady hand because I'm nervous [02:36.13] [02:37.09]Every Sunday morning I'm in the service [02:38.78] [02:39.42]Praying for forgiveness [02:40.62] [02:42.01]And trying to find an exit out of the business [02:43.86] [02:44.55]I know the Lord is looking at me [02:45.88] [02:46.81]But yet and still it's hard for me to feel happy [02:48.87] [02:49.98]I often drift when I drive [02:51.34] [02:52.29]Having fatal thoughts of suicide [02:54.11] [02:54.76]Bang and get it over with [02:55.96] [02:56.96]And then I'm worry free but that's bullshit [02:59.39] [02:59.93]I got a little boy to look after [03:01.58] [03:02.15]And if I died then my child would be a bastard [03:04.26] [03:05.01]I had a woman down with me [03:06.60] [03:07.38]But to me it seemed like she was down to get me [03:09.38] [03:10.43]She helped me out in this sh*t [03:11.67] [03:12.48]But to me she was just another b**ch [03:14.38] [03:14.99]Now she's back with her mother [03:16.28] [03:17.84]Now I'm realizing that I love her [03:19.56] [03:20.39]Now I'm feeling lonely [03:21.48] [03:23.54]My mind is playing tricks on me [03:25.03] [03:40.48]This year Halloween fell on a weekend [03:42.69] [03:43.23]Me and Geto Boys are trick-or-treating [03:45.61]Robbing little kids for bags [03:48.04]Till a law man got behind our a** [03:50.21] [03:50.85]So we speeded up the pace [03:52.86]Took a look back [03:53.79]And he was right before our face [03:55.77]He'd be in for a squabble no doubt [03:57.62] [03:58.28]So I swung and hit the ni**a in his mouth [04:00.30] [04:01.23]He was going down we figga'd [04:03.43]But this wasn't no ordinary ni**a [04:05.40] [04:06.20]He stood about six or seven feet [04:08.50]Now that's the ni**a I'd been seeing in my sleep [04:10.56] [04:11.32]So we triple-teamed on him [04:12.77] [04:13.90]Dropping them motherf**king beads on him [04:16.27]The more I swung the more blood flew [04:18.60]Then he disappeared and my boys disappeared too [04:21.00] [04:21.63]Then I felt just like a fiend [04:23.50] [04:24.12]It wasn't even close to Halloween [04:26.45]It was dark as f**k on the streets [04:28.52]My hands were all bloody from punching on the concrete [04:31.20] [04:32.20]Goddamn homie my mind is playing tricks on me
