Lyrics
When the day winds down
Who do you look up to now
Hopefully not me though
Count on me like a Shaq free throw
Only going to make it if I'm close to the rim
How the fuck am I supposed to drive in
When my words been like the wind
They only stick around for a second
But I'm tired of doing that
I want to be like a lit match
You want to fight then I'll hit back
You want a light I provide that
But only if you smoking on the potion
That keeps your mind open
All you got to do is wake up
Go one full day without talking
See how loud the brain gets barking
I can't go to sleep
No
Oh, oh
It's been too long too many days of the week
I should be herding my sheep
Not right here hurting in my sheets
I try to treat my word like a sharpie
Oh, but I'm all out of ink
Thought this was permanently
Thought this was permanently
Thought this was real as can be
Until I woke up out of my dream
Hey
Got to wake up
Got to get up out of bed
Awh
You didn't sleep
Well that sucks for you
Get the fuck up
Think I sleep
You think Eminem slept
You think Mac Miller slept
You think any of the motherfuckers you look up to
Ever slept
Nah, none of them slept
So why the fuck you still in bed then
I really don't care if you had a nightmare
I really don't
Get the fuck
Alright fine I'm up and awake
It's been a minute but I got a lot on the plate
I don't know where to look to
I don't know what I'm stuck doing
Seem like this a passion
That I don't really want to stop and
I'm so close to grabbing it
But
When I try I fail
No, when I try I really fail
Seem like no matter how much money or time
I put up in the craft
It ain't worth it
I got a lot of shit in my life
That's coming to the surface
I tried to drown it before
But I got nervous
You can't blame me for it
I need a purpose
I need to save the people like me
That have the urge just to set themselves free
I can't go to sleep
No
Oh, oh
It's been too long too many days of the week
I should be herding my sheep
Not right here hurting in my sheets
I try to treat my word like a sharpie
Oh, but I'm all out of ink
Thought this was permanently
Thought this was permanently
Thought this was real as can be
Until I woke up out of my dream
I can't go to sleep
No
Oh, oh
It's been too long too many days of the week
