Let's hold hands, nigga, let's get this money, nigga
Ou paka bat mwen, yeah

So it's only right we looking down on niggas (we see you)
Started as a indie, now we fifty million (sixty million)
I got bury money, my bitch watching Wendy Williams (that's right)
Bulletproof my SUV, it burn a lot of gas (woo)
Send black folk to your city just to drop a body bag (woo)
You talking but my niggas speak a different code (bang, bang, bang)

Real nigga for life (real nigga for life), so paranoid (so paranoid) (woo)
Connect had hit me, he got shooters in California
Yeah, since they killed Stack from this building, I relocated my children
Hope his shooter step forth and just make his debut appearance
They try to lock up my kind, scared to pick up my line
My phone tapped like Avon, my Cuban link like Raekwon
These streets all that I know, my block hot like pyro (boy)
All we know is get it so, nigga, if you scared, call five-0 (yeah)

Watch what I say when I lay with my bitch
'Cause when that shit hit the fan and them choppers start blamming
She pro'ly be down with the hit, boy!
I be so (I be so) paranoid (paranoid)
I hear these niggas tryin' to fuck with me
But, real shit, I know I got enemies
I can't let them niggas into me
Aye, I-I be the hottest nigga out my city
Hit-hit-hit you with some shit you never seen, on Tip
Know a nigga shining, all my diamonds pretty
I-I-I hit a lick, I'm worth a couple million (huh)
Aye, that car I'm in, four hundred thou' nigga
That top drop like Pacquiao, nigga
I-I-I hit up K.O.D and left a hundred in it (hundred in it)
Hundred on my watch, I'm shining every minute
They-they-they caught him on that corner, left a hundred in him (hundred in him)
Niggas goin' broke, that'll never be me (haan)
That-that paranoia (paranoia), got me watchin' lawyer (watchin' lawyer)
Molly water (molly water), tryna wake up sober
I keep my hitter with me (on deck), that's my shooter, nigga
Only thing I'm scared of is what he'll do to niggas (ha ha)
Just for the love (love), I'ma do it with ya (yup)
Closed casket, let 'em come and view a picture
Yeah, it's amazing how the time fly (amazing)
Yeah, the hate is at a all-time high (hate)
Yeah, I got them things in the hood working
Uh, death is the only thing certain
F-Y-I, nah I ain't scared to die
Ain't afraid to lose and I ain't scared to try (never)
Game of destroyer, you better retain a lawyer
Federal indictment, that's paranoia
The song "Paranoid" by Chinx and French Montana talks about their experiences with paranoia and the fear of being targeted and harmed by their enemies. The song starts with Chinx rapping about the money he has made and how he can no longer trust anyone, even himself. He expresses his fear by saying that he is paranoid and feels like he's being watched. French Montana also echoes this sentiment and raps about the bullets that ripped through his door like Biggie's and the fear of being caught off guard. The song is a reflection of the paranoia that comes with being a celebrity and has often been cited as a cautionary tale for up-and-coming artists.
The chorus of the song features the phrase "I be so paranoid," which is repeated four times throughout the song. This phrase serves as a reminder of the fear and anxiety that the rappers face on a day-to-day basis. They talk about the ways in which they cope with this fear, such as through their connection to a higher power or by keeping their "hitter" (someone who carries a gun) with them at all times. The lyrics also touch on themes of loyalty and the fear of being betrayed by those closest to them.
Overall, "Paranoid" is a powerful and honest reflection on the experiences of celebrities and hip hop artists. It offers an insight into the struggles they face, from the fear of violence to the anxiety and mistrust that comes with fame. The song is a reminder that even in the midst of success, there is often a darker side to celebrity culture.
