Lyrics:
They tell me you can only dream when you fell asleep
But now I’m working to achieve, but sleep is the only thing I never see
And I vowed that my breathing with never cease
To the retrieve then I can’t let them be
I won’t let ’em leave and I had the same feeling since 17
But I wasn’t ready then like a lemon screen?
Now I’m in the magazines almost every week
Cause I’m getting heat like in Tenerife
Right now it’s better than it’s never been
Never fade like a plant that’s evergreen
So I hope to my heart, but my self doubts are getting me
Afraid for my cross, getting dump for the day and I’m getting weak
Cause I’m new, I’m that boy that starts it
They chase dreams together like a slumber party
And now I’m on my own, even though I’m smooth sailing
I’m scared to sing, cause my nightmare is fading
When the darkness creeps in
I feel my nightmares watching me
And when my dreams are sleeping
I feel my nightmares watching me
Oh, oh, oh!
I feel my nightmares watching me
You better wake up cause I am making moves
And even when I’m dozing I’m breaking rooms
I’m only hitting the sack when I’m training
Too busy trying to keep up with the latest snooze
Made my bed and that’s where I’m heading
I fly straight with the best man I embed ’em
Married to the game was a quiet wedding, then I had to fight to get her
Now I’m taking control of my inception
cause they try to hit misses with my direction
See they better marry donna cause when I strike, strike
Not even Maradonna is gonna cry, I’m awake at night
The haters know where the family lives
Tell me what I catch, but you’re playing knock door ginger
Just gonna lose a lot more, than I need it
They say sleep is the cause of death
But I hear shit because I am deaf
Gang signs I’m N/A reading
I’m a CEO, man you suckers are next
When the darkness creeps in
I feel my nightmares watching me
And when my dreams are sleeping
I feel my nightmares watching me
Oh, oh, oh!
I feel my nightmares watching me
They watching me! They watch me sleep!
Let me go!
I fell asleep on sofa, walk up in reality
And daydream about losing my sanity
I’ve been rhyming forever got a blind flow
So I can see an off note with my eyes closed
But to achieve the dreams you can’t doze off ’cause your dream asleep
I ain’t nodding off but I’m nodding to the beat
I be shocking in my sheets, when I should have been asleep
See, all the dreams I’m fonder
You placed me in the team insomnia
Now, I Mr hard worker
In my nightmares I Mr can’t turn up
And I missed my chance worst luck
Trying to hit women I Mr I turn up
Yeah, and I walked from ish
thinking it will put me to rest on my mattress
When the darkness creeps in
I feel my nightmares watching me
And when my dreams are sleeping
I feel my nightmares watching me
Oh, oh, oh!
I feel my nightmares watching me
Watching me!
