Paranoia by TM_THEGREAT Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2020

(Verse 1)

Look, man I haven't left the house in like 5 whole days
I been tryna swallow my pride but I just don’t like the taste
Imagine if I  swallowed my pride I'd prolly vomit and spit up
What's the point in being the bigger man when I’m already bigger?

Been watching these fake niggas setting Twitter on fire
They dropping their whack records and they tryna go viral
They sending sublimal disses and failing to back 'em
Too bad I don't listen to niggas who talk out their rectum

That's why I'm steady at the crib and putting focus on thesе verses
I cannot go outside causе strangers always make me nervous
One of these trash niggas dissed me and was talking bout some hearses
I tried to let it slide but man I couldn't fight the urges
Cause the streets is getting colder but the winter is over
I been tryna keep it civil but these niggas ain't noble
I gave these niggas their start but best believe it is over
If I turned these rappers to cards I'd have a deck full of jokers
And not the old kind, the new one like J. Phoenix
Talking all that shit when they drowsy off the Alcophyllex
You should mention my name so I know that you mean it
Here’s some free advice; get the fuck out your feelings
Cause you cannot be emotional when handling this business
But nonetheless I understand I’m battling beginners
Who pretend to be my friends but got my spot on their wishlist
Even if I sent a clause (Santa Clause) like everyday could be Christmas

You been talking silly on beats, so watch your back on these streets
I started a Great Mob and it's something like Genovese
Surviving so many storms I make it look like a breeze 
So I put my hand on their necks, better beg me not to squeeze
I swear these lil niggas don’t even know what they started
I guess being at the top makes you an easier target
Niggas drink Stilpane but they still pain
Cause even when I'm in the rain I'm gon still reign

(Chorus)

They lift me up and hold me down
But do they still keep it up even when I'm not around?
Cause I just need some love and some trust and something to take me higher
Paranoid, paranoid, swear to God I’m paranoid
What's that noise, who that boy? Swear to God I'm paranoid
I need some love and some trust and something to take me higher
(Verse 2)

Man my life feel like a series, and I skipped a couple seasons
They tryna kill the main character but they know that they need him
They know that they need him
Who's the Pompey to my Ceasar?
They gonna need to Come Together like that record by The Beatles
Fuck stressing bout the future man I'm living in the now
Niggas always in denial, they know I'm flowing like the Nile
If you ever cross the line just know we cannot reconcile
I've had abandonment issues ever since I was a child
That's why every time they leave I always lose my fucking mind
'Cause it's like they take a piece of me that I will never find
So until then I'll just continue bleeding on these beats
You better hope to God that I don't see you on these streets
I'm so sick of rappers that talk shit but can't fight
Like mine workers when I see you it's on sight (site)
Cause a nigga might forgive but believe I don't forget
And cutting these niggas off is something I don't regret, cause I'm paranoid nigga

(Outro)

Paranoia
A mental condition characterized by delusions of persecution, unwarranted jealousy, or exaggerated self-importance, typically worked into an organized system

(Chorus)
They lift me up and hold me down
But do they still keep it up even when I'm not around?
Cause I just need some love and some trust and something to take me higher
Paranoid, paranoid, swear to God I'm paranoid
What's that noise, who that boy? Swear to God I'm paranoid
I need some love and some trust and something to take me higher
