Sleep Tight - Upchurch

Sleep tight when you’re clenchin' on my pillow

Used to dream of bein' famous in a Limo

Sittin' where respected, passin' Cigarillos

So, sleep tight when you’re clenchin' on my pillow

Snooze away, you bein' awake don’t affect me none, listen, son

I’m always out here mastermindin', you the only one you sleepin' on

For fuck’s sake, I can’t even take a break

Without someone from back in the day cryin' about bills that they gotta pay

Yeah, dog, I was broke, yeah, dog, there was nights

Stomach was growlin', depressed head and thinkin' about my life

I painted houses and now my house is gettin' painted

It was a floor with a pallet, now a palace with rare cars in the driveway

And, no, I ain’t sorry, but I used to be

Until I realized all the sacrifice I made to try to go down in history

No privacy, no friends, no truth, all lies

CashApp this, Venmo that, can I cop one of your rides?

No

Sleep tight when you’re clenchin' on my pillow

Used to dream of bein' famous in a Limo

Sittin' where respected, passin' Cigarillos

So, sleep tight when you’re clenchin' on my pillow

So, sleep tight when you’re clenchin' on my pillow

Midnight in the city with the heroes

I like the guy that I see in the mirror

So, sleep tight when you’re clenchin' on my pillow

My hometown to me’s dear, all the small talk I hear

Half the town thinks I’m weird, yep, for at least the past 5 years

Your brain don’t deal with stress like mine, you do not know what it’s like

For people to record you, with the light on a date in the booth beside ya

I deal with the same shit that made Kurt Cobain

Itch his motherfuckin' brain with a long 12 gauge

So, when you whisper, «He's crazy and I think he is kinda strange»

I’m thinkin', «No shit, dummy, I get crowded while pumpin' gas»

I get asked a million questions when I’m out chillin' with my woman

And people hand her their phone like she’s a fuckin' photographer

And if you didn’t get the selfie at least you gettin' the picture

I got the sauce in the country but I ain’t you bitchs' elixir

Sleep tight when you’re clenchin' on my pillow

Used to dream of bein' famous in a Limo

Sittin' where respected, passin' Cigarillos

So, sleep tight when you’re clenchin' on my pillow

So, sleep tight when you’re clenchin' on my pillow

Midnight in the city with the heroes

I like the guy that I see in the mirror

So, sleep tight when you’re clenchin' on my pillow
