Paranoid
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Never know when someone comes and try to take my life
I've been sleeping with the .45 like every night
In the whip I pray to God I don't see flashing lights
God damn, they right behind me
And I wake up everyday, I wake up everyday with this anxiety
And they know where I stay
Got Malone on my plates
And they following me
Two hundred bands under the floor of the kitchen
A little more up in the walls and the celing
Even family and friends started switching
Ever since I got that check, seen 'em itchin'
Eyes open, I see you, I'm watching, yeah
More people wanna be, you don't trust no one
Tell me why I can't get no relief
Wonderin' when they'll come for me
A paranoid man makes paranoid plans
I'll do what I can, but it's out of my hands
Struggling just to find my peace
Sometimes feel like I got no friends
Can't trust a soul like I'm Snowden
Right by the bed, keep it loaded
Lord have mercy if they broke in
I don't ever sleep, yeah, I'm wide awake
If you try to pull up to my place
Beam is gonna hit you a mile away
I promise, one of us gonna die today
Helicopters in the sky
No, he can't escape the eyes
Politicians and the lies
Tell me, what's the point in picking sides?
Tell me why I can't get no relief
Wonderin' when they'll come for me
A paranoid man makes paranoid plans
I'll do what I can, but it's out of my hands
Struggling just to find my peace
Mind is running all day
Cost me more than money and I'm paying the price yeah
I ain't going nowhere
Killing myself so I can make me a life yeah
Minute after minute, never had a limit
Wake up every morning, knew that I just had to get it
Windows always tinted, you ain't lookin' in it
Either way, I know they'll come for me again
Tell me why I can't get no relief
Wonderin' when they'll come for me
A paranoid man makes paranoid plans
I'll do what I can but it's out of my hands
Struggling just to find my peace
