Sleep - Joey Cool

Need some sleep, I can’t go on like this

Tried counting sheep, but there’s always one I miss

Everyone says, I’m getting down to long

Everyone says, you just gotta let it go

You just gotta let it go

You just gotta let it go

I gotta get it off my chest

Why wouldn’t I set out to be the best

A hundred miles an hour I know I could use the the rest

But I feel like I’m running outta time getting older

And this shit really fucking with my mind

Everyday I’m dwelling on some stupid shit that’s in the past

Should be focused on the present then the future but I crashed

Ask why

Would’ve prolly had to do it

All the shit that I was doing

The decisions I was making

Wasn’t thinking I was stupid

But I was young and I was dumb and doing wrong was so amusing

Till I had a change of heart, now the shit is just confusing

I don’t know why I felt I had to do it

But now that I’ve been broken, I would never put you through it

And I’ve come to the conclusion

My deprivation derives, from a much different place

At a much darker time

Uh, just had to get it off my chest

A hundred miles an hour I know I could use the rest

But I’m stressed

Need some sleep, I can’t go on like this

Tried counting sheep, but there’s always one I miss

Everyone says, I’m getting down to long

Everyone says, you just gotta let it go

You just gotta let it go

You just gotta let it go

I gotta get it off my chest

Why wouldn’t I set out to be the best

A hundred miles an hour I know I could use the the rest

But how I’m gon' sleep when these niggas in the streets

If my eyes close, how the fuck I’m gon' compete

Cause some nigga some place somewhere right now

Up at three AM jotting all his thoughts and writing down

His feelings and emotions, ready for the fight now

Let the universe work, time I shed light now

Negative energy is the same as wasted energy

Life ain’t all roses though so this could take a remedy

Only keep the important people in your vicinity

Keep your head high and praise god to infinity

Sleep deprivation, and everybody’s lied, from a much different place

At a much darker time

I, just had to get it off my chest

A hundred miles an hour I know I could use the rest

But I’m stressed

Need some sleep, I can’t go on like this

Tried counting sheep, but there’s always one I miss

Everyone says, I’m getting down to long

Everyone says, you just gotta let it go

You just gotta let it go

You just gotta let it go
