Trying to Kill Me
[Verse 1]
I admit it, I'm afraid they gon' kill me for this
Probably put me in my grave for the lyrics I spit
Been exposin' the truth and all the secrets they're coverin'
If I die, it was Big Pharma or government
Been puttin' too much truth in my songs
They gon' stage a suicide and say I chose to move on
Probably cuttin' my brakes, so when I tour too long
I'll die in a crash, say I was drivin' and drunk
Look, the Illuminati real
They're tryna make you dumb, tryna numb you out with pills
Tryna make you broke, tryna tell you it's a deal
Processin' your food, so now none of it is real
You're eatin' super good, but you still be gettin' ill
You workin' super hard, but you still can't pay the bills
Silencin' the visionaries, revising their dictionaries
Now you just can't find the right words to say and express how you feel

[Chorus]
Target on my back, I think they're comin' for my head
I know I recognize that van, I bet they wanna see me dead
They're gonna kill me if I leave my room
They're gonna kill me if I go too soon
You should know, I said they would kill me

[Verse 2]
I admit it, I'm afraid they gon' murder me
Wouldn't be a problem if nobody ever heard of me
But I'm famous, so they'll probably try erasin' me with urgency
Infect me with a sickness and deny me any surgeries
Stop me from exposin' all the medicine and currency
And terrorism always been controllin' us so perfectly
I'm tellin' you with certainty, they say it's for security
They monitor our lives like we live in Nazi Germany
They wanna microchip all the people, you don't believe it
Your fingerprint unlockin' your phone? Oh, how convenient
They trick you to believe in all the angels and demons
And say you'll go to Hell if you ever go disappoint Jesus
I got a backbone and a platform and a tapped phone
Never asked for it to be that known
Take my passport to my dad's boat
Use the back door to escape this place, it's the Truman Show
[Chorus]
Target on my back, I think they're comin' for my head
I know I recognize that van, I bet they wanna see me dead
They're gonna kill me if I leave my room
They're gonna kill me if I go too soon
You should know, I said they would kill me

[Verse 3]
I admit it, I'm afraid I'll disappear
They won't issue me a ticket for a minor misdemeanor
They gon' try to lock me up but for the moment while I'm here
Just let me take a minute to make sure you see it clear
Cancer has a cure, they killed Biggie and Pac
One thing I know for sure: 9/11 was an inside job
They stamp dollar bills with "In God We Trust"
Well, a single dollar bill the only thing we got
I think they probably think they got us fooled
Distort the information and curriculums in school
They ain't makin' you a scholar, man, they're makin' you a fool
They're makin' you a felon if you chose to break the rules
They design a game with a million ways to lose
Not a single way to win, only option you can choose
Is to play it with a grin, or you play it feelin' blue
Either way the wheels spin, you won't ever make a move
They gon' kill me for this
[Chorus]
Target on my back, I think they're comin' for my head
I know I recognize that van, I bet they wanna see me dead
They're gonna kill me if I leave my room
They're gonna kill me if I go too soon
You should know, I said they would kill me

[Bridge]
Hey, babe, um, I just walked in the house, did...
Did you leave the door open by chance?
I don't know, the door was open
Nah, I just walked up and the door was like opened a crack
Yo, fuck, they're in the house
Babe, they're in the house

[Chorus]
Target on my back, I think they're comin' for my head
I know I recognize that van, I bet they wanna see me dead
They're gonna kill me if I leave my room
They're gonna kill me if I go too soon
You should know, I said they would kill me
