Scarface - Mind Playing Tricks on Me (Clean) lyrics

[Intro: Scarface] I sit alone in my four-cornered room staring at candles [Cool that, man] Oh, we on the radio dude? [yeah.] Oh, alright [Verse 1: Scarface] At night I can't sleep, I toss and turn Candlesticks in the dark, visions of bodies being burned Four walls closing in, gettin bigger I'm paranoid, sleeping with my finger on the trigger My mother's always stressin' I ain't living right But I ain't going out without a fight See, every time my eyes close I start sweating and blood starts coming out my nose It's somebody watching the Ak' But I don't know who it is, so I'm watching my back I can see him when I'm deep in the covers When I awake I hear em call "burn the rubber" He owns a black hat like I own A black suit and a 'caine like my own Some might say, "Take a chill, B." But I can't G, cuz there's somebody trying to k** me I'm poppin' in the clip when the wind blows Every 20 seconds got me peeping out my window Investigating the joint for traps Checking my telephone for taps I'm staring at the woman on the corner It's messed up when your mind's playing tricks on ya [Verse 2: Willie D] I make big money, I drive big cars Everybody know me; it's like I'm a movie star But late at night, something ain't right I feel I'm being tailed by the same s**er's headlights Is it that fool that I ran off the block? Or is it that clown last week that I shot? Or is it the one I beat for 5000 dollars? Thought he had 'caine, but it was Gold Medal flour Reached under my seat, grabbed my popper for the s**ers Ain't no use to me lying, I was scareder than a mother Hooked a left into Popeye's and bailed out quick If it's going down, let's get it over with Here they come just like I figured I got my hand on the chrome-plated trigger What I saw will make you 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 looking over my shoulder And peeping around corners; my mind is playing tricks on me [Verse 3: Scarface] Day by day it's more impossible to cope I feel like I'm the one that's doing dope Can't keep a steady hand, because I'm nervous Every Sunday morning I'm in service Praying for forgiveness And tryin' to find an exit out the business I know the Lord is looking at me But yet and still it's hard for me to feel happy I often drift while I drive Having fatal thoughts of suicide Bang and get it over with And then I'm worry-free, but that's nonsense I got a little boy to look after And if I died then my child would be a ba*tard 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 But to me she was just another chick Now she's back with her mother Now I'm realizing that I love her Now I'm feeling lonely My mind is playing tricks on me [Verse 4: Bushwick Bill] This year Halloween fell on a weekend Me and Geto Boys are trick-or-treatin' Robbing little kids for bags Till a law man got behind our rags 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 tried to take him out He was going down we planned But this wasn't no ordinaryman He stood about six or seven feet Now that's a creep I'd be seeing in my sleep So we triple-teamed on him Dropping them fif-board 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 d**h on the streets My hands were all bloody, from punching on the concrete Aw man, homie My mind is playing tricks on me
