    Lyrics:
    I sit alone in my four-cornered room
    Starin' at candles
    Oh, that shit is on?
    Let me drop some shit like this here, real smooth
    At night I can't sleep, I toss and turn
    Candlesticks in the dark, visions of bodies bein' burned
    Four walls just starin' at a nigga
    I'm paranoid, sleepin' with my finger on the trigger
    My mother's always stressin' I ain't livin' right
    But I ain't goin' out without a fight
    See, every time my eyes close
    I start sweatin' and blood starts comin' out my nose
    Is somebody watchin' the Ak'?
    But I don't know who it is, so I'm watchin' my back
    I can see him when I'm deep in the covers
    When I awake I don't see the motherfucker
    He owns a black hat like I own
    A black suit and a cane like my own
    Some might say, "Take a chill, B."
    But fuck that shit! There's a nigga tryin' to kill me
    I'm poppin' in the clip when the wind blows
    Every 20 seconds got me peepin' out my window
    Investigatin' the joint for traps
    Checkin' my telephone for taps
    I'm starin' at the woman on the corner
    It's fucked up when your mind's playin' tricks on ya
    I make big money, I drive big cars
    Everybody know me; it's like I'm a movie star
    But late at night, somethin' ain't right
    I feel I'm bein' tailed by the same sucker's headlights
    Is it that fool that I ran off the block?
    Or is it that nigga last week that I shot?
    Or is it the one I beat for 5,000 dollars?
    Thought he had 'caine, but it was Gold Medal flour
    Reached under my seat, grabbed my popper for the suckers
    Ain't no use to me lyin', I was scareder than a motherfucker
    Hooked a left into Popeye's and bailed out quick
    If it's goin' down, let's get this shit over with
    Here they come, just like I figured
    I got my hand on the motherfuckin' trigger
    What I saw'll make your ass start gigglin'
    Three blind, crippled and crazy senior citizens
    I live by the sword
    I take my boys everywhere I go because I'm paranoid
    I keep lookin' over my shoulder and peepin' around corners
    My mind is playin' tricks on me
    Day by day it's more impossible to cope
    I feel like I'm the one that's doin' dope
    Can't keep a steady hand, because I'm nervous
    Every Sunday morning I'm in service
    Prayin' for forgiveness
    And tryin' to find an exit out the business
    I know the Lord is lookin' at me
    But yet and still, it's hard for me to feel happy
    I often drift when I drive
    Havin' fatal thoughts of suicide
    Bang and get it over with
    And then I'm worry-free, but that's bullshit
    I got a little boy to look after
    And if I die, then my child'll be a bastard
    I had a woman down with me
    But to me it seemed like she was down to get me
    She helped me out in this shit
    But to me she was just another bitch
    Now she's back with her mother
    Now I'm realizing that I love her
    Now I'm feelin' lonely
    My mind is playin' tricks on me
    This year, Halloween fell on a weekend
    Me and Geto Boys are trick-or-treatin'
    Robbin' little kids for bags
    'Til a lawman got behind our ass
    So we speeded up the pace
    Took a look back and he was right before our face
    He'd be in for a squabble, no doubt
    So I swung and hit the nigga in his mouth
    He was goin' down, we figured
    But this wasn't no ordinary nigga
    He stood about six or seven feet
    Now that's the nigga I be seein' in my sleep
    So we triple-teamed on him
    Droppin' them motherfuckin' B's on him
    The more I swung, the more blood flew
    Then he disappeared and my boys disappeared too
    Then I felt just like a fiend
    It wasn't even close to Halloween
    It was dark as fuck on the streets
    My hands were all bloody from punchin' on the concrete
    Goddamn, homie!
    My mind is playin' tricks on me
