I need some sleep
- //(Beat by Telling Beatzz)
- //hook//
- I need some sleep
- i cant go on like this
- i tried counting sheep
- but there's one I always miss
- //x3
- some days I wake up, I don't wanna leave the house,
- I don't wanna go to school, I don't wanna face the crowd,
- and the voices in my head keep clamouring to be heard,
- but I gotta use my words until my eyes get blurred,
- I aint playing with the fuckries, tell that boy to go home,
- cause youre stealing my sound, making my flow your own,
- but life gets cold some days you stand on your own,
- an some days you regret ever picking up the phone,
- don't start beef for the shits and giggles,
- that's a quick way to get what little fans you have divide,
- are you high? find a girl, but dont tell her bout love,
- say nothing, do something before this life gets dull
- like CKA said, pull that northface on,
- its a layer for the player that don't trust no dons,
- I could do this on my ones, I just do this shit for fun,
- but for my mum I gotta fight on, write on,
- //hook//
- I need some sleep
- i cant go on like this
- i tried counting sheep
- but there's one I always miss
- //x2
- you all taking me too serious like I'm lacking with the opps,
- I aint glacking with a gang or leaving blood to get mopped,
- I aint calling up the coppers or the jakes to your yard,
- I aint gonna get mobbed by ten man are you mad
- petty little things distracting me from life,
- I focus too hard, I'm on the edge of a knife,
- I was rapping bout shit I haven't done in my life,
- at the time it was funny, getting head tryna pipe
- but the times move on, and you have to catch up,
- I was missing out on school, I gotta put in the work,
- gonna get my self a low fade and a shape up,
- time to drop a heavy mix tape, time to re up
- dope lines on the notepad, dope lines on the mirror
- eyes wide open but I cant see any clearer
- I cant see much farther than the edge of my nose
- but ill make the scene blow, forging steel from silver
- //hook//
- I need some sleep
- i cant go on like this
- i tried counting sheep
- but there's one I always miss
- //x2
- I miss all the good times that we had together
- We covered each other through all the stormy weather
- But it breaks my heart to watch the change without me in it
- You guys mean so much to me and i couldn't admit it
- I turned my back on the boys that had mine,
- thinking they were fake and tryna scrape another dime
- as time would tell, seems they only meant well,
- fuck saving money you can have that as well,
- whats mine is yours, if you ever truly need it,
- I'm here for my brothers, i'll be there in the deep shit,
- but all the foney friends turning my life bookey,
- do a Michael Jackson impression and Beat It
- Jesus told me just to turn the other cheek,
- when they ask what I did tell em that I never gave up
- putting in overtime, that's what makes us,
- separates the real MC's from the fakers and traitors
- //hook//
- I need some sleep
- i cant go on like this
- i tried counting sheep
- but there's one I always miss
- //x4
