In My Sleep

I'm tired of the same old regimen
Try to bubble up and they tame those specimen
I'm dancin' on a cliff while I'm hangin' on the precipice
Fuck the one percent, I've been thinkin' bout the rest of us
It's the plight of the average man
You can barely get by in this savage land
Everybody wants their hand on the lavish and
They ain't thinkin' bout the next person or collateral damage
I always rooted for the underdogs
In a sense, I relate to their perspective
Surprising people thinkin' that I wasn't effective
Shouldn't be a nominee, yet I won the election
Honestly, I'm done vyin' for someone's affection
And applying band-aids just to numb the depression
Any day I eat these motherfuckers for breakfast
Now put me on a stage pumped up with a setlist
Sometimes at night I think of things
And they haunt me in my sleep
Sometimes at night I think of things
And they haunt me in my sleep
Shattered glass of my broken dreams
I've been lookin' at my past and the open seams
I'm tryin' to reconstruct it so I can provoke the scene
Evoke emotions in me so potent that everything I hope to be
Is within reach, but I still feel this inner grief
Sometimes I quiet the angel and let the sinner speak my inner peace
Goin' up when I think the least, so when it's brief I never think too bleak
So I hit the streets, focus on the beats
Diggin' in my cleats to the dirt on my feet
Navigate the cold and the snow and the sleet
And from now on I'm bold when I speak, no retreatin
Feel relief when I speak to the deacon
Matter of fact, we should all hit the beach for the weekend
You sowin what you reapin
About time I feel at ease when I'm sleepin
Sometimes at night I think of things
And they haunt me in my sleep
Sometimes at night I think of things
And they haunt me in my sleep
