I hardly sleep.

lyrics

Pre-Chorus:
Burning this tree
Running on E
x4 I hardly sleep.

Verse 1:
Work while it's late.
I'll die to be great.
To die is our fate.
Lying awake,
hope the liars and fakes start dying away.
I'm grinding today to kick it next week,
feet up with a drink
like "fuck what you think".
Fuck what you think;
only say what you know.
Only way that we grow is nourish our seeds and fulfill our own needs.
She's feeling on me.
She told me go deep.
I'm bout to skeet.

Pre-Chorus:
Burning this tree
Running on E
I hardly sleep.
Grinding all day, til I'm grinding my teeth.
x4 I hardly sleep
Working all day, working all week.
I hardly sleep.

Chorus:
Whippin' in the wagon, no windows.
Whippin in the wagon blowin' indo.
I just go whichever way the wind blow.
No slackin', no sleepin' on the po-po.
If you're lackin' they will crack you and your kin-folk.
Stay up
That's what I tell my people when they're walking out the door.
Stay up
Now that I'm awake I can't sleep anymore.
Stay up
I know my people understand when I say,
x2 Stay up

Verse 2:
Land of the free,
imprison my family abandoning me.
Preying on low self-esteem,
turned all my homies to fiends,
eatin' them beans, xannis and lean.
Me, I just stick to the green.
Fuck do you mean?
You better mean what you say, it could come into play.
Yesterday hurts you today.
August could burn you in May.
I gotta eat, work til it's hurtin my feet,
go and get fed then repeat.
Flip one to three like I was changing the channel, don't like what I see.
Likened to me? I don't agree.
My latitudes at a higher degree.
My attitude, I'm just happy to be.
Burnin' this gas got me gasping to breathe.
