Paranoid

Kanne kanne kanne... kanne...
Inga... nan vazha mudiyatha.?

I ain't never had a moment of peace
Told me death always been a cousin of sleep
So I grind till the sun raise up, get the cake up
Till I get a taste of something overly sweet
Head straight from the bottom to the obelisk peak
I beat the odds and they owe me the sweeps
That's the life I live and the price I bid for the bag and
The bragging rights to these streets
The funny part is when the money get thick
The circle get slim and loyalty shift
I don't know who I can trust in my amidst
So I keep a close watch and slugs in my clip
They plan, everybody want to see me slip but
I got a couple hitters and thugs in my clique
Never know who might flip so the weight on
My wrists getting heavy on me now
I might be losing my grip if I'm tripping
They don't know the half of it
Every King at a jungle got a snake in the grass coming
Even your day one's counting your blessings and
Wait until you see the last of them
They say I'm paranoid ain't no reason to be this obsessed homie
But they don't know how it feel to wake up with
The AR up in the back of your chest homie
So, I keep an eye open, my head on the swivel
I will never ever them see me sweat
Only God know if I meant to survive through
The shroud of my enemy's threats
Bet you I come out on top aint come
This far to just plummet from off the Apex
Bruh up next, foot on their necks
Now I know fear is just part of the path to success
Roc. Roc. Roc. Roc, Roc

I look at the world and all I see
The labels that they put on me
All I hear is a bunch of noise
And these voices got me paranoid
I look at the world and all I see
The labels that they put on me
All I hear is a bunch of noise
And these voices got me paranoid

Got to get it on you got a choice
I gotta spit till I ain't got a voice
I got to stand like a man. I was raised from a boy
So it's time to get it loud
Yeah, it's time to make noise

I write some songs to right some wrongs (they)
They act like they don't know right from wrong (they)
They think it's all right to do a nigga wrong
It's time to do more than just write some songs
We need y'all leaders to lead us
So Jesus please ease us so at least lead us not into
The temptation to keep buying more Jesus Pieces
Instead invest how about better housing to
Increase the peace in our kids surroundings
So call it preaching, I call it teaching, I call it breathing reason
I hope I'm reaching whoever needs it in every region
I hope it keeps giving them reason to keep breathing and breathing
Not just for buying shit but so that we ain't out here just dying
We demand you supply some shit that don't lead to us dying quick
Fuck the alcohol bottle with your name on it
They keep passing us the ball, but it's still got a chain on it
Blood on the concrete and it still got a stain on it,
That's how they want it
Living on the edge till we put a blade on it
Shit is coming to a head and there's a fade on it
Talking shit put a head up fade on it
Took enough lying down time to stand up, man up
Tell him push play any time of the day, but I say what I say on it

I look at the world and all I see
The labels that they put on me
All I hear is a bunch of noise
And these voices got me paranoid
I look at the world and all I see
The labels that they put on me
All I hear is a bunch of noise
And these voices got me paranoid

They don't get it
They don't know the struggle
They tried to bury us
But we rose from the rubble
We need a change new direction
Look at your reflection
We are Kings and Queens
Did I forget to mention
Police brutality's at a all time high
We really need a change, it's time that we rise
This is a revolution time for evolution
Enough of racist pollution in institutions

I look at the world and all I see
The labels that they put on me
All I hear is a bunch of noise
And these voices got me paranoid
I look at the world and all I see
The labels that they put on me
All I hear is a bunch of noise
And these voices got me paranoid

Kanne kanne kanne... kanne...
Inga... nan vazha mudiyatha.?
Kanne kanne kanne... kanne...
Inga... nan vazha mudiyatha.?
Amaidhi kaalam. yeppo
Nan suvasipathu.?
Amaidhi kaatrai yeppo
Nan suvasipathu.?
Kanne kanne kanne... kanne...
