Geto Boys - Mind Playin Tricks On Me Lyrics
[Scarface:]
I sit alone in my four-cornered room
Starin' at candles
Oh, that shit is on?
Let me drop some shit like this here, real smooth
[Scarface:]
At night I can't sleep, I toss and turn
Candlesticks in the dark, visions of bodies bein' burned
Four walls just starin' at a nigga
I'm paranoid, sleepin' with my finger on the trigger
My mother's always stressin' I ain't livin' right
But I ain't goin' out without a fight
See, every time my eyes close
I start sweatin' and blood starts comin' out my nose
It's somebody watchin' the Ak'
I can see him when I'm deep in the covers
When I awake I don't see the motherfucker
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 fuck that shit! There's a nigga tryin' to kill me
I'm poppin' in the clip when the wind blows
Every twenty seconds got me peepin' out my window
Investigatin' the joint for traps
Checkin' my telephone for taps
I'm starin' at the woman on the corner
It's fucked up when your mind's playin' tricks on ya
[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, somethin' ain't right
I feel I'm bein' tailed by the same sucker's head lights
Is it that fool that I ran off the block?
Or is it that nigga last week that I shot?
Or is it the one I beat for five thousand dollars?
Thought he had 'caine, but it was Gold Medal flour
Reached under my seat, grabbed my popper for the suckers
Ain't no use to me lyin'
I was scareder than a motherfucker
Hooked a left into Popeye's and bailed out quick
If it's goin' down, let's get this shit over with
Here they come just like I figured
I got my hand on the motherfuckin' trigger
What I saw'll make your ass 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 lookin' over my shoulder
And peepin' around corners; my mind is playin' tricks on me
[Scarface:]
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
Every Sunday morning I'm in service
Prayin' for forgiveness
And tryin' to find an exit out the business
I know the Lord is lookin' at me
But yet and still it's hard for me to feel happy
I often drift while I drive
Havin' fatal thoughts of suicide
Bang and get it over with
And then I'm worry-free, but that's bullshit
I got a little boy to look after
And if I die, then my child'll be a bastard
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 shit
But to me she was just another bitch
Now she's back with her mother
Now I'm realizing that I love her
Now I'm feelin' lonely
My mind is playin' tricks on me
[Bushwick Bill:]
This year Halloween fell on a weekend
Me and Geto Boys are trick-or-treatin'
Robbin' little kids for bags
'Til a law man got behind our ass
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 hit the nigga in his mouth
He was goin' down we figured
But this wasn't no ordinary nigga
He stood about six or seven feet
Now that's the nigga I'd be seein' in my sleep
So we triple-teamed on him
Droppin' them motherfuckin' 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 fuck on the streets
My hands were all bloody from punchin' on the concrete
Goddamn, homie!
My mind is playin' tricks on me

Geto Boys Mind Playin Tricks On Me Comments
Straight fire
Now I’m 40 I can’t help but to see a message about schizophrenia in this song. I never looked at it like that back in the day. Intentionally or not it’s there. I remember when this came out. I was just a kid. A true classic complete with brilliant storytelling.
yep time to lay the dope down
Meth is bad
This song is soo nice ma shqipe ❤💪
One of the best rap songs ever
My asshole is playing tricks on me
When you get a bounty on Gta
Ptsd in a song lol
No lies, I was about to end it but I turned this on and decided to give tomorrow a try.
This shit hits so hard.
Music heals.
Thank you. 💜💜
Good work and stay strong you'll work it all out.

Kodak black copyrighted the beat of this song
Its fucked up when your mind is playing tricks on you.

White boy still jamming in 2020
I was just born when this vid came out
Keep his hands where they go.
To All y”all whack MCs , we Thank The Almighty something Real like this came Along.
Classic song, always will be.1992. Detroit DJ's would play this version off the hook, yep and I loved it. I think its the hook base line but nah, its the words and the stories that caught me and I was only 12 years old. Now I'm 41 years old and I can still rap this song word for word. Shit I'm a white girl that will always appreciate the truth in music till the day I die. This song taught me how to be a fighter not just on the streets but vs myself, my own enemy.
2020 Halloween falls on a weekend!! We're all going trick or treating 😂 😂
