  • Never know when someone come and try to take my life
    I been sleepin' with the .45 like every night
    In the whip, I pray to God I don't see flashin' lights
    Goddamn 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 followin' me
    Two hundred bands under the floor of the kitchen
    A little more up in the walls and the ceilin'
    Even family and friends started switchin'
    Ever since I got that check, seen 'em itchin'

    Eyes open, I see you, I'm watchin' you, 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
    Strugglin' 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 broken
    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 of pickin' 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
    Strugglin' just to find my peace

    Mind is runnin' all day
    Cost me more than money and I'm payin' the price, yeah
    I ain't goin' nowhere
    Killin' myself so I can make me a life, yeah
    Minute after minute
    Never had a limit
    Woke up every mornin', 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
    Strugglin' just to find my peace Writer/s: Alexander Krashinsky, Austin Post, Idan Kalai, Louis Bell, William Walsh
