But real gangsta-ass niggas don't flex nuts, 'cause real gangsta-ass niggas know they got 'em

Mind Playing Tricks on Me supplies 5 of the 12 lines, all lyrics, and that explains the top themes: pain and street tie at 4. It is a song about fear and a mind that won't quit, about sleeping with a finger on the trigger and no way to cope. Scarface is the boast-and-threat song, Six Feet Deep the one that wants to avoid being a casualty, and G-Code about not stopping. 3 lines are credited to We Can't Be Stopped.
I'm paranoid, sleepin' with my finger on the trigger
“Mind Playing Tricks on Me”Verified · Genius
It's fucked up when your mind's playin' tricks on ya
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
Four walls just starin' at a nigga
I'm paranoid, sleepin' with my finger on the trigger
I don't wanna run (run) no more, but I know that if I stop
I'll be another nigga headed to heaven, hanging with 'Pac
I often drift when I drive, havin' fatal thoughts of suicide
Bang and get it over with
You'll be bumped up, bucked off, no trace
On the for realer, my nigga, just call me Scarface
You try to school me, you'll get served with no regard
Nobody crosses me, especially in this dope game
Another killing was reported on the evenin news
Somebody's brother got killed behind a pair a shoes
But I refuse to be another violent casualty
