"Paranoid" lyrics
I'm just tryna survive in the land where young niggas die at
Night time, shots fired, I should be used to it by now, yeah
You can hear the scream and the cries
See the broken dreams fill up they eyes
And we wasn't 'posed to make it out, yeah
But I'm thankful that we made it out that, oh-whoa
Every decision that I ever made in my life made me who I am now
Found me a way to prevail when I coulda just easily threw in the towel
Everyone hated on me, picked favorites over me, but look at me now (Yeah)
Started with a dream, knew what I wanted and built that shit up from the ground
Baby, I'm paranoid (Yeah)
Come from the jungle, they don't show no love to nobody, I hope that you ready for it (Yeah)
They say we livin' to die, but I'm dyin' to live, so therefore, I'm paranoid (Yeah)
I keep like two Smith & Wessons close for my protection right next to my hand, boy (Yeah)
If it's killed or be killed, you know I'm comin' for yo' head, boy
Baby, I'm paranoid (Yeah)
Come from the jungle, they don't show no love to nobody, I hope that you ready for it (Yeah)
They say we livin' to die, but I'm dyin' to live, so therefore, I'm paranoid (Yeah)
I keep like two Smith & Wessons close for my protection right next to my hand, boy (Yeah)
If it's killed or be killed, you know I'm comin' for yo' head, boy
Shared clothes with a Judaist
Gave him a gun 'cause I thought he would shoot it
Like, how the fuck could I be so fuckin' stupid?
Grew up together, my momma yo' momma
Yo' momma my momma, you know how we do it (You know how we do it)
Now, I'm stressin', I might have to kill him (Why I had to do it?)
And I hate it 'cause that was my nigga (Know how I'm rollin')
Just be careful, you gettin' it if you runnin' with him, fah
Every decision that I ever made in my life made me who I am now (Who I am)
That was my brother, we came up together, I see him, I'm knockin' him down (I'm knockin' him down)
I put my all into this, gave it all I can give, now, look at me now (Look at me)
I'll be damned if I let you come burn somethin' down that I built from the ground (Yeah)
Baby, I'm paranoid (Yeah)
Come from the jungle, they don't show no love to nobody, I hope that you ready for it (Yeah)
They say we livin' to die, but I'm dyin' to live, so therefore, I'm paranoid (Yeah)
I keep like two Smith & Wessons close for my protection right next to my hand, boy (Yeah)
If it's killed or be killed, you know I'm comin' for yo' head, boy
Baby, I'm paranoid (Yeah)
Come from the jungle, they don't show no love to nobody, I hope that you ready for it (Yeah)
