[00:00.08] I sit alone in my four-cornered room staring at candles
[00:03.73] Oh that shit is on?
[00:05.79] Let me drop some shit like this here..
[00:08.81] At night I can't sleep,I toss and turn
[00:11.95] Candlesticks in the dark,visions of bodies bein' burned
[00:14.49] Four walls just starin' at a nigga
[00:17.13] I'm paranoid,sleepin' with my finger on the trigger
[00:19.90] My mother's always stressin' I ain't livin' right
[00:22.67] But I ain't going out without a fight
[00:25.26] See,everytime my eyes close
[00:26.84] I start sweatin' and blood starts comin' out my nose
[00:29.93] There's somebody watchin' the Ack
[00:32.63] But I don't know who it is,so I'm watchin' my back
[00:35.49] I can see him when I'm deep in the covers
[00:37.78] When I awake I don't see the motherfucka
[00:40.29] He owns a black hat like I own
[00:42.90] A black suit and a cane like my own
[00:45.54] Some might say"Take a chill,B~"
[00:47.40] But fuck that shit,there's a nigga tryin' to kill me!
[00:50.71] I'm pumpin' in the clip when the wind blows
[00:53.19] Every twenty seconds got me peepin' out my window
[00:55.77] Investigatin' the joint for traps
[00:58.16] Checkin' my telephone for taps
[01:01.30] I'm starin' at the woman on the corner
[01:03.41] It's fucked up,when your mind is playin' tricks on you
[01:20.59] I make big money,I drive big cars
[01:22.83] Everybody know me,it's like I'm a movie star
[01:25.23] But late at night,somethin' ain't right
[01:27.87] I feel I'm being tailed by the same sucka's head lights
[01:30.64] Is it that fool that I ran off the block?
[01:33.90] Or is it that nigga last week that I shot?
[01:35.45] Or is it the one I beat for five thousand dollars?
[01:38.80] Thought he had caine but it was Gold Medal Flour?
[01:40.75] Reach under my seat,grabbed my popper for the suckas
[01:43.24] Ain't no use to be lyin,I was scareder than a motherfucka
[01:46.85] But they're laughin' at pow pies and buried that quick
[01:49.68] If it's goin' down,let's get this shit over with
[01:52.50] Here they come,just like I figured
[01:54.28] I got my hand on the motherfuckin' trigger
[01:56.79] What I saw'll make your ass start gigglin'
[01:59.52] Three black crippled and crazy senior citizens
[02:02.47] I live by the sword
[02:03.90] I take my boys everywhere I go
[02:05.79] because I'm paranoid
[02:07.36] I keep lookin' over my shoulder and peepim' around corners
[02:10.16] My mind is playin' tricks on me
[02:26.82] Day by day it's more impossible to cope
[02:30.37] I feel like I'm the one that's doing dope
[02:33.14] Can't keep a steady hand because I'm nervous
[02:35.39] Every Sunday mornin' I'm in service
[02:38.21] Prayin' for forgiveness
[02:40.10] And tryin' to find an exit out the business
[02:43.18] I know the Lord is lookin' at me
[02:45.42] But yet and still it's hard for me to feel happy
[02:47.83] I often drift while I drive
[02:50.71] Havin' fatal thoughts of suicide
[02:53.25] BANG and get it over with
[02:55.53] And then I'm worry-free,but that's bullshit
[02:58.71] I got a little boy to look after
[03:00.99] And if I died then my child would be a bastard
[03:03.21] I had a woman down with me
[03:05.79] But to me it seems like she was down to get me
[03:08.25] She helped me out in this shit
[03:11.30] But to me she was just another bitch
[03:13.56] Now she's back with her mother
[03:16.50] Now I'm realizing that I love her
[03:19.10] Now I'm feelin' lonely
[03:21.91] My mind is playin' tricks on me..
[03:38.42] This year Halloween fell on a weekend
[03:41.58] Me and Geto Boys are trick-or-treatin'
[03:44.32] Robbin' little kids for bags
[03:47.50] Till an old man got behind our ass
[03:49.23] So we speeded up the pace
[03:51.66] Took a look back,and he was right before our face
[03:54.37] He'd be in for a squabble no doubt
[03:56.92] So I swung and hit the nigga in his mouth
[03:59.45] He was goin' down,we figured
[04:01.95] But this wasn't no ordinary nigga
[04:04.58] He stood about six or seven feet
[04:07.60] Now,that's the nigga I'd be seein' in my sleep
[04:09.76] So we triple-teamed on him
[04:12.45] Droppin' them motherfuckin' B's on him
[04:15.17] The more I swung the more blood flew
[04:17.37] Then he disappeared and my boys disappeared too
[04:20.40] Then I felt just like a fiend
[04:22.58] It wasn't even close to Halloween
[04:25.00] It was dark as death on the streets
[04:27.18] My hands were all bloody from punchin' on the concrete
[04:30.36] God damn,homie,my mind is playin' tricks on me..
